    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Surgical Instrumentation

    Background:

    • Pediatric ophthalmic surgery presents unique challenges due to the small anatomical structures.
    • Standard surgical instruments may not be optimally designed for pediatric procedures.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a novel intraocular knife specifically designed for pediatric ophthalmic surgery.
    • To ensure the instrument is sharp, small, and easy to handle in young patients.

    Main Methods:

    • Design and fabrication of a micro-sized intraocular knife.
    • Evaluation of the knife's sharpness and handling characteristics.

    Main Results:

    • The developed intraocular knife possesses exceptional sharpness.
    • The instrument's small dimensions facilitate precise manipulation in pediatric ocular tissues.

    Conclusions:

    • The new intraocular knife is suitable for ophthalmic procedures in children.
    • This instrument may improve surgical outcomes and safety in pediatric eye surgery.
