Ophthalmic – Microsurgery
Due to the indications of the sutures within Microsurgery the suture threads are very thin and the needles are very small and often with a flattened body. The flattened body of the needle assures a great stability and bend resistance. The needle and thread combined offer a smooth penetration and reduced tissue reaction.
