O'Connor Hooks are versatile ophthalmic instruments designed for retracting, isolating, and manipulating extraocular muscles and ocular tissues during strabismus and anterior segment eye surgeries, featuring sharp and flat hook tip variations, lightweight ergonomic handles, and German stainless steel construction for precise and atraumatic tissue engagement.
The O'Connor Hook 5" Sharp features a sharp pointed hook tip on a well-proportioned 5" handle, designed for precise tissue penetration and secure engagement of extraocular muscles and conjunctival tissues in strabismus and anterior segment procedures where a sharper hook profile is required for accurate tissue capture and controlled surgical access.
The O'Connor Flat Tenotomy Hook features a smooth flat blunt hook tip designed for atraumatic passage beneath extraocular muscle bellies and tendons during tenotomy and strabismus procedures, providing a gentle yet secure hold on muscle tissue while minimizing the risk of perforation or trauma to surrounding conjunctival and episcleral structures.
