Tenotomy Scissors are delicate, fine-tipped surgical scissors specifically designed for cutting tendons, delicate tissues, and fine sutures in ophthalmic, hand, and plastic surgery. They typically feature small, sharp blades—straight or curved—with very fine tips that allow for precise, controlled cuts in confined spaces. In ophthalmology, they are used for procedures like strabismus surgery (cutting eye muscles) and corneal surgery. In hand surgery, they are essential for tenotomy (tendon release) and other delicate dissections where accuracy is critical.
