Angled Lacrimal Cannula

Angled Lacrimal Cannula is a specialized ophthalmic instrument used for irrigation, probing assistance, and diagnostic evaluation of the lacrimal drainage system, including the puncta, canaliculi, lacrimal sac, and nasolacrimal duct. Designed for enhanced anatomical access, the instrument features a precision angled cannula tip that facilitates navigation through the natural curvature of the lacrimal drainage pathways. The angled configuration improves maneuverability and allows more controlled positioning during irrigation and diagnostic procedures. The fine atraumatic tip is engineered to minimize tissue trauma while providing smooth insertion into delicate lacrimal structures. Its precision lumen enables controlled delivery of saline or other irrigation solutions for assessing tear duct patency and identifying obstructions within the drainage system. Angled Lacrimal Cannulas are commonly used to evaluate lacrimal drainage function, confirm canalicular patency, detect partial or complete nasolacrimal duct obstruction, and assist during lacrimal surgery and postoperative care. The slim-profile design offers excellent visibility and precise handling, while the angled shaft provides improved ergonomic access during procedures involving complex lacrimal anatomy. These instruments are widely utilized during lacrimal irrigation, tear duct assessment, dacryocystitis evaluation, nasolacrimal duct investigations, pediatric lacrimal procedures, and oculoplastic surgeries. Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the instrument offers exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and dependable long-term performance. The polished internal lumen supports smooth fluid flow and facilitates efficient cleaning and maintenance. Available in multiple angles, lengths, diameters, and tip configurations, Angled Lacrimal Cannulas can be selected according to procedural requirements and surgeon preference. Widely used in hospitals, ophthalmic surgery centers, eye clinics, ambulatory surgical facilities, and specialty ophthalmology practices, the Angled Lacrimal Cannula is an essential instrument for lacrimal system diagnosis and treatment. Fully reusable and autoclavable, the instrument is designed to withstand repeated cleaning and sterilization cycles while maintaining lumen integrity, tip precision, and structural performance.
