Capsule hooks are used for temporary support of the capsular
bag during a cataract surgery when the zonules are weak or in case of
subluxated lenses.
Capsule hooks are made of Nylon with an adjustable silicon lock- Designed such that the hook is angled to be in the plane of the anterior Capsule.
- Easy to get a firm and reliable grip on the rim.
- Tip of the hook is rounded to prevent any accidental damage to the peripheral capsule while placing the hooks in the bag.
- Round tip also provides a larger support area per hook there by reducing the number of hooks required in each surgery.
- Silicon lock helps in retaining the hook in retracted position during the surgery.
