Stegmann MicroCrescent, Elite II Micrometer Diamond Knife

“The Stegmann-Hill Stabilizer diamond knife with the Elite micrometer provides exceptional control and excellent visualization for limbal relaxing incisions, or any number of others uses where a precise vertically oriented diamond blade incision is required.” – Warren E. Hill, MD, FACS, Mesa, AZ

“I have been using Mastel diamonds for many years and currently use a trapezoid blade for bimanual cataract surgery and the Elite II for depth adjusted LRIs. The trapezoid blade make a consistent incision for my bimanual cataract surgery and the Elite II makes a very thin cut in the peripheral cornea for LRIs. It makes a very thin cut with less foreign body sensation compared to other LRI blades I have used. I would recommend these blades to all cataract surgeons and the Elite II is a must for premium IOL surgery to control astigmatism.” – Ray T. Oyakawa, MD, Torrance, CA

“The Elite II Micrometer diamond is finally an AK diamond knife, that we should have had for a long time. In limbal AK it avoids conflicts with the conjunctiva, in all other AKs it provides the final solution to stable alignment during the cut with visibility. I will have to talk to Mastel for an update of all the other footplates I have purchased over time….” – Thomas Neuhann, MD, München, Germany
