V. Mueller OP0915-901 Fine Titanium Forceps Ophthalmic 4"

V. Mueller Fine II Titanium Lens Folder | 4" Length | OP0915-901 | Reusable

The V. Mueller OP0915-901 (Fine II) is a premium microsurgical instrument specifically engineered for the controlled folding and insertion of foldable intraocular lenses (IOLs). Constructed from high-grade Titanium, this instrument offers a superior strength-to-weight ratio compared to stainless steel, providing the surgeon with enhanced tactile sensitivity while virtually eliminating hand fatigue during high-volume cataract procedures.

The Fine II model features a specialized micro-tip geometry designed to securely grasp and fold silicone or acrylic IOLs without marking or damaging the optic surface. Its non-magnetic properties and high resistance to corrosion make it an ideal staple for modern ophthalmic surgical trays.

Key Specifications

• Manufacturer: V. Mueller (CareFusion/BD)

• Model / REF: OP0915-901

• Product Type: Fine II Titanium Lens Folder

• Overall Length: Approximately 4 Inches (10.2 cm)

• Material: Medical-Grade Titanium (Lightweight & Non-Magnetic)

• Handle Type: Spring-Handle (Flat-Serrated Grip)

• Tip Configuration: Ultra-Fine / Micro-Tip

• Cleaning: Fully Autoclavable / Reusable

Technical & Clinical Advantages

• Lightweight Titanium Construction: Titanium is approximately 40% lighter than stainless steel. This allows for a more "delicate" touch, essential when performing high-precision maneuvers within the capsular bag or anterior chamber.

• Specialized Lens-Folding Jaws: The "Fine II" tip geometry is precision-honed to provide a firm yet atraumatic grip on the lens optic. This ensures the lens remains securely folded during the transition into the inserter or directly into the eye.

• Spring-Action Responsiveness: The spring-handle design provides immediate, predictable jaw opening and closing. This "pencil-grip" actuation allows for rotational maneuvers that are difficult to achieve with standard ring-handled forceps.

• Non-Reflective Blue/Gray Finish: The natural titanium finish reduces glare from surgical microscopes and high-intensity operating lights, ensuring a high-contrast view of the lens and surrounding ocular structures.

• Integrated Locking/Tension Mechanism: Designed for controlled pressure, the instrument minimizes the risk of "over-squeezing," which can cause IOL haptic deformation or optic tearing.

Applications

• Cataract Surgery (Phacoemulsification): Folding and delivery of foldable posterior chamber IOLs.

• IOL Repositioning: Manipulation of lens optics during intraoperative adjustments.

• Microsurgical Handling: Fine tissue or material manipulation where a non-magnetic, lightweight tool is required.

Condition & Quality Assurance

• Status: Used – Good Condition.

• Maintenance: This instrument has been professionally inspected for tip alignment and spring responsiveness. The micro-tips meet perfectly under light pressure, and the titanium surfaces are free of pitting or mechanical deformation.

• Professional Standards: With over 25 years of experience in surgical and ophthalmic instrumentation, Primis Medical ensures all specialized titanium tools are function-tested to meet professional clinical standards.

Shipping & Handling

• Secure Logistics: Shipped in a specialized protective container to ensure the delicate micro-tips and spring mechanism remain in factory-standard alignment during transit.

• Fast Dispatch: Ships within 1 business day.
