As Dr. Seibel explains, "The development of each of the
Seibel ophthalmic instruments occurred while applying Phacodynamic principles
to cataract and LASIK surgery. During each step of every operation,
I ask myself what the goal of that moment and
how it could best be served. If the answer is not the current
technique and instrumentation, then I systematically derive how I can make improvements.
This is how I created the 20 specialized Seibel instruments that enhance
safety, patient comfort, and surgical efficiency."
Below is data from Bausch & Lomb on three of these ophthalmic instruments:
Bausch & Lomb is pleased
to introduce innovative ophthalmic instruments design for cataract/refractive
surgery by Barry Seibel, M.D.
E4054R Seibel 3-D Lid Speculum - Solid Blade
E4075R Seibel 3-D Lid Speculum - Ribbon Blade
E4075RC Seibel 3-D Lid Speculum - Ribbon Blade Compact
Lid control for cataract and refractive procedures.
Unique pivot axis allows blades to gently support lids through an anatomically
correct arc of motion.
Swivel screw adjustment mechanism rotates out of the way after adjustment and
provides a secure lock.
Lid blades contoured to the surface of the eye are excellent for creating
exposure of the eye surface during phacoemulsification or microkeratome suction
ring placement.
Ribbon design of blades allows same
surgical ergonomic access as open wire designs but the ribbon stock
distributes force over a larger surface area than the tangent point of
contact of a wire speculum, thereby reducing focal pressure on the
eyelid and enhancing patient comfort.
E4054R
E4075R
Available in either solid blade or open "ribbon" style blade.
Unlike conventional speculum designs that open in one plane, the blades of the
Seibel 3-D Speculum follow the anatomical path of the globe to gently support
the lids.
Screw mechanism swings up for positioning and adjustment
and down out of the way during the procedure.
