Viscoelastic Cannula
Viscoelastic cannulas are precision ophthalmic instruments designed for the safe and controlled delivery of ophthalmic viscosurgical devices (OVDs) into the anterior chamber during cataract and other intraocular surgeries. Essential in procedures such as phacoemulsification, IOL implantation, and corneal transplant, these cannulas help maintain chamber depth, protect intraocular tissues, and create space within the eye for surgical manipulation. Manufactured from high-quality surgical-grade stainless steel or medical-grade polymer, viscoelastic cannulas feature fine, polished tips and are available in a range of gauges and angles—such as straight, curved, or bent—for optimal access and precision. Equipped with luer lock compatibility, they ensure a secure connection with syringes, providing smooth, consistent injection of viscoelastic materials. Ideal for ophthalmic surgeons, these cannulas minimize trauma to the endothelium and other sensitive structures, enhancing surgical control and patient outcomes in anterior segment procedures.
