The West Lacrimal Sac Chisel is a specialized ophthalmic instrument designed for precise bone removal during dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) surgery. This procedure creates a new drainage pathway for tears between the lacrimal sac and the nasal cavity to treat a blocked nasolacrimal duct. The chisel has a fine, sharp, angled blade that allows the surgeon to carefully remove the thin bone of the lacrimal fossa and anterior lacrimal crest, exposing the lacrimal sac for anastomosis while protecting the surrounding delicate structures. Its design is critical for successful, controlled osteotomy in delicate tear duct surgery.
