Buonsanti Dual Hook

Buonsanti Dual Hook is a system with a combination of both, an iris retractor and a capsule hook. It is used for simultaneously providing a temporary support to the capsular bag and for temporary retraction of the iris, without making too many incisions.

Features

Both the hooks are combined together with a common adjustable silicon lock, which helps in retaining both the hooks in a retracted position during the surgery.
Iris retractors stretch and stabilize the iris during the surgery while capsule hooks support and stabilize the capsular bag.
Capsule hooks have a compressed bulb shaped tip to avoid any accidental damage to the peripheral capsule and also provide a large support area per hook.
Stem of the capsule hook is bent at an angle from the end in order to make handling of both the hooks easy.
Iris Retractors are made of bright blue coloured fibre and Capsule Hooks are made of black coloured fibre to easily differentiate each hook.
A set of 5 Buonsanti Dual Hooks is packed & sealed in a blister and then in a medical grade peel open pouch.

Indications

Iris Retractors provides temporary retraction (pupil dilation) of the iris where dilation cannot be achieved pharmacologically.
Capsule Hooks provide temporary support to the capsular bag when the zonules are weak or in case of subluxated lenses.
Capsule Hooks maintain the position of the capsule during phaco.
Capsule Hooks support the fornix as well as the capsulorhexis rim, so that the peripheral capsule isn’t attracted towards the phaco tip.
Capsule Hooks avoid the problem of the capsular tension ring trapping cortex.
Capsule Hooks prevent zonular stress during nuclear rotation.
Capsule Hooks make it possible to perform posterior chamber phaco even with subluxated lenses having minimum zonular support.

Advantages

Buonsanti dual hooks can be used in cases which have both, zonular instability and small pupil size together.
Dual Hook can be inserted together through the same incision, thereby reducing the number of incisions required, while providing the benefits of both the hooks together.
Easy to insert and remove.
