Description
The solid blade wire speculum, commonly known as the Barraquer wire speculum with solid blades, is a lightweight, spring-style ophthalmic instrument designed to gently retract and hold the eyelids open during eye surgeries such as cataract extraction or phacoemulsification.
Its V-shaped wire frame and curved solid blades conform to the facial contours, exerting minimal pressure on the globe while effectively preventing eyelashes from entering the surgical field.
This design ensures optimal exposure of the eyeball, enhanced patient comfort, and reduced interference compared to open-wire variants.
