Hess-Engelking iris forceps 2 3/4" angled shafts 1x2 teeth flat handle

Precision Tissue Handling with Angled Access

The Hess-Engelking iris forceps provide surgeons with a refined instrument for delicate tissue manipulation, combining the familiar grip of 1x2 teeth with the ergonomic advantages of an angled shaft. Designed to enhance visualization and access in confined surgical fields, this 2 3/4-inch forceps allows for precise control during intricate procedures. The flat handle design supports a stable, comfortable hold, reducing hand fatigue during extended use. By bridging the needs of general surgery and ophthalmic applications, this tool offers versatile performance for tasks requiring both finesse and reliability. Its specific geometry supports accurate placement and gentle traction, making it an essential component for workflows demanding high dexterity and clear operative views.
