Troeltsch 18cm Iris forceps (18.0 cm)

Iris scissors were originally designed for ophthalmic iridectomy in the nineteenth century — small, sharp, pointed scissors for cutting the iris under magnification. Modern usage extends well beyond ophthalmology: plastic surgeons use Iris for fine dissection, dermatologists for minor excisions, microsurgeons for delicate tissue work, dental surgeons for intraoral suture trimming. The defining features are short blade length (typically 11.5 cm overall with 2.5 cm blade), sharp-sharp pointed tips, and a fine box-lock joint. Tungsten carbide tip variants (TC Iris) hold a cutting edge through hundreds more autoclave cycles than plain stainless. Both straight and curved configurations cover most surgical needs.
