The Ahmed SuperCrescent is a very efficient crescent-style diamond. Featuring a broad, 1.4 mm leading edge with three facets, the Ahmed SuperCrescent delivers one of the finest dissecting edges available. The long cutting sides provide the ability to enlarge any incision and provide better stability during flap creation in terms of maintaining the plane of dissection due to the broader nose geometry.
Testimonials
“I have been using Mastel diamond knives for Viscocanalostomy & Canaloplasty for the last 20 years, after being introduced to Schlemm’s Canal Surgery by Robert Stegmann in 1997. The long term results of this surgery have established it as a “Diamond Standard for Open Angle Glaucoma”, and your diamonds provide a precise and atraumatic adjunct to the ab-externo surgical incision.” – Clive Peckar, MD, Peckar Eye Clinic, Warrington, Cheshire, England
“The Ahmed SuperCrescent is an exquisite tool for creating a scleral lamellar dissection. The geometry of the blade and the handle angulation provide a degree of comfort unparalleled in my previous experience with other blades.” – Jason Jones, MD, Jones Eye Clinic, Sioux City, IA
“Mastel’s latest glaucoma diamonds remind me of why I chose ophthalmology. They are an elegant and precise solution to the scleral flap. With the Ahmed blades, surgery on the sclera is now a refined process much like the use of Mastel diamonds in corneal procedures.” – James S. Lewis, MD, Philadelphia, PA
