Da Cruz Triple Tool

The Da Cruz Triple Tool from Delta Med Surgical addresses one of the most critical challenges in modern lamellar corneal surgery: minimizing the number of entries through the paracentesis while maintaining complete control over delicate endothelial tissue. Switching instruments while the anterior chamber is shallow risks graft de-scrolling, mechanical endothelial cell loss, or chamber collapse. By integrating three essential micro-functions into one shaft, the Da Cruz design enables the surgeon to manipulate, position, and stabilize the tissue without leaving the eye.

Key Performance Features

• Tri-Functional Working Tip: Features an engineered terminal geometry that integrates:

  1. A micro-hook/stripper for scoring and removing diseased host Descemet's membrane.

  2. A blunt spatulated surface for gentle external or internal fluid-wave graft unrolling without direct endothelial contact.

  3. A positioning/tap tip to center and adhere the donor lenticule against the posterior stroma.

• Atraumatic Endothelial Handling: Every contact edge is hand-polished under microscopic inspection to eliminate micro-burrs. This ensures smooth manipulation that drastically reduces cell loss, supporting optimal long-term graft clarity.

• Balanced Ergonomic Handle: Crafted with an ultra-lightweight, round knurled handle that affords fluid 360° rotational control between the fingertips, enabling precise manipulation in narrow anterior chambers.

• Universal Port Entry: The slim shaft is calibrated to pass smoothly through standard 1.0mm to 1.2mm paracentesis incisions without stretching the corneal architecture or causing wound leakage.

The Delta Med Surgical Quality Standard

Offered in Medical-Grade Titanium Alloy (for ultra-light tactile sensitivity and non-magnetic performance) or Operating Room Grade German Stainless Steel, this instrument resists corrosion from saline, BSS (Balanced Salt Solution), and common ophthalmic sterilants. It is fully autoclavable (134°C) and manufactured in accordance with strict CE, ISO 13485, and FDA regulations.
