Kwitko Cyclodialysis Spatula

Description

Kwitko Cyclodialysis Spatula

The Kwitko cyclodialysis spatula is a slim, flat blade for gentle work in the front of the eye. It comes in one fixed pattern, so there is no size to choose. Simply check the photo to confirm the blade shape suits your tray.

A single Kwitko pattern

One fixed form keeps ordering simple. Also, staff learn one tool rather than a set. If your cases need several widths, you can add an adjustable range later, such as the Castroviejo-Barraquer line.

What a cyclodialysis blade does today

Classic cyclodialysis aimed to open a path for fluid in glaucoma. That surgery is now rare. However, the same thin blade still helps sweep the angle, lift iris or guide a lens edge.

Kwitko spatula strengths

Why teams choose it:

• A thin profile that passes small ports
• Smooth edges that will not cut
• One pattern for simple stock control

A light touch with the Kwitko

Hold it like a pen and rest your wrist. Then move the blade in short strokes, keeping it flat to the tissue. If you meet resistance, back off and re-enter at a new angle.

After each Kwitko case

Rinse the blade while debris is still wet. Then brush both faces, dry them and check the edge under a lamp. Store it in a slot of its own, away from heavy clamps.

Getting the Kwitko

The Kwitko arrives unsterile; once you wash the slim Kwitko blade and run it through sterilization, it can join many future cases. Kwitko steel follows ASTM F899. Our warranty for the Kwitko covers three years against manufacturing defects. For other spatulas, see our eye surgery catalogue, or compare the Jaffe cyclodialysis spatula.
