The Fine Thornton Ring provides the most positive fixation for corneal relaxing incisions as well as phaco incisions, featuring a low-profile design with no glare.

Features:

  • Provides a simple pattern for non-guided LRI incisions.
  • Finished teeth may cause conjunctival redness without causing subconjunctival hematomas.
  • By retropulsing the globe and applying pressure to the sclera, IOP is increased to improve incision depth and support consistent LRI placement.
