About Keratome Blades

Keratome Blades

The normal human cornea varies from around 500 to 600 micrometres in thickness; and in the LASIK procedure, the microkeratome creates an 83 to 200 micrometer thick flap. This piece of equipment is used all around the world to cut the cornea flap. The microkeratome is also used in Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty, where it is used to slice a thin layer from the back of the donor cornea, which is then transplanted into the posterior cornea of the recipient. It was invented by Jose Barraquer and Cesar Carlos Carriazo in the 1950s in Colombia.

Razor Sharp Precision & Safety

Crafted with advanced grinding and laser edging, Keratome Blades offer unmatched sharpness and precision for delicate corneal incisions. Each blade is gamma or EO sterilized and individually packed for assured sterility, enhancing patient safety during ophthalmic surgeries.

Universal Compatibility & Design

These blades fit most standard blade handles and feature both straight and angled tips, accommodating diverse surgical techniques. The ambidextrous, non-slip green handle offers ergonomic support, ensuring comfort and control for ophthalmic surgeons.

Reliable Single-Use Sterility

With a disposable, single-use design, each Keratome Blade minimizes cross-contamination risks. The durable, non-corrosive construction and ISO-certified sterility uphold rigorous medical standards across each procedure.

FAQ's of Keratome Blades:

Q: How are Keratome Blades sterilized before use?

A: Keratome Blades undergo sterilization using either gamma irradiation or ethylene oxide (EO) methods. Each blade is then individually sealed in a sterile pouch to ensure optimal safety and hygiene until the moment of surgery.

Q: What types of surgical procedures are these blades suitable for?

A: These blades are primarily intended for ophthalmic surgeries, specifically for creating precise corneal incisions during procedures such as cataract or refractive surgeries.

Q: What are the key benefits of using these blades for ophthalmic surgeons?

A: Surgeons benefit from the razor-sharp, precision ground edge, ergonomic handle, and ambidextrous compatibility, which together ensure superior control and high-precision incisions with minimal tissue trauma.

Q: When should Keratome Blades be used and disposed of?

A: The blades are designed for single-use applications and should be used only once per procedure. Immediately after surgery, dispose of them according to established medical waste protocols to maintain a sterile surgical environment.

Q: Where should unopened packages of these blades be stored?

A: Unopened pouches should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to preserve sterility and maximize their shelf life, which extends up to five years.

Q: What makes these blades compatible with most standard handles?

A: Their universal design allows seamless attachment to most standard ophthalmic blade handles, ensuring convenience and flexibility for surgeons without requiring specialized equipment.
