Capsule hooks are used for temporary support of the capsular bag during a cataract surgery when the zonules are weak or in case of subluxated lenses.

• Capsule hooks are made of Nylon with an adjustable silicon lock

• Designed such that the hook is angled to be in the plane of the anterior capsule

• Easy to get a firm and reliable grip on the rim

• Tip of the hook is rounded to prevent any accidental damage to the peripheral capsule while placing the hooks in the bag

• Round tip also provides a larger support area per hook there by reducing the number of hooks required in each surgery

• Silicon lock helps in retaining the hook in retracted position during the surgery

• CE marked

• Maintains the position of the capsule during phaco

• Supports the fornix as well as the capsulorhexis rim, so that the peripheral capsule isn’t attracted towards the phaco tip

• Avoids the problem of the capsular tension ring trapping cortex

• Prevents zonular stress during nuclear rotation

• Makes it possible to perform posterior chamber phaco even with subluxated lenses having minimum zonular support

• Easy to insert and remove
