Ophthalmology 4 1/4″ Lambert Sleeve Spreader 90 deg Jaws

The Ophthalmic Lambert Sleeve Spreader is a precision surgical instrument designed for compatible ophthalmic and microsurgical applications. It features a 4 1/4-inch overall length and 90° jaws, providing an angled working configuration for controlled spreading and surgical handling.

The Lambert configuration provides a specialized instrument profile intended for ophthalmic environments where a defined jaw angle and controlled manipulation are required.

Design and Configuration

The instrument has an overall length of 4 1/4 inches with jaws positioned at 90 degrees. This angled configuration provides a distinct working orientation compared with a straight-jaw instrument.

The sleeve spreader design is intended for controlled spreading applications in compatible ophthalmic surgical environments.

90° Jaw Configuration

The 90° jaw orientation provides an angled working profile that can assist with access and instrument positioning in appropriate surgical setups. The configuration allows the working end to be oriented differently from the handle, depending on the requirements of the procedure.

Ophthalmic Surgical Applications

The instrument is designed for compatible ophthalmic and microsurgical applications requiring a sleeve spreader with an angled jaw configuration.

Potential applications include:

• Ophthalmic surgery
• Eye surgery
• Microsurgical instrument setups
• Controlled spreading applications
• Precision surgical handling

Specific clinical use depends on the procedure, surgical technique, and professional judgment.

Handling and Use Considerations

The jaws should be handled carefully to preserve their 90° alignment and working surfaces. Before use, inspect the instrument for deformation, damage, corrosion, contamination, or other abnormalities.

Use should follow applicable ophthalmic surgical protocols and manufacturer instructions where provided.

Cleaning and Instrument Care

After use, the spreader should be cleaned according to the applicable validated ophthalmic instrument-care procedure. Particular attention should be given to the angled jaws and any joints or moving components.

Avoid handling or storage methods that could alter the 90° jaw alignment.

Sterilization and Inspection

Where reusable processing is applicable, sterilization should follow the manufacturer's validated instructions and the healthcare facility's established sterilization protocol.

Before each use, inspect the instrument for cleanliness, jaw alignment, surface condition, and overall mechanical integrity.
