Description
Backflush instruments are intended to be used for retrograde flushing of incarcerated tissue during aspiration of intraocular fluids during (vitreoretinal) ophthalmic surgeries.
Backflush Instruments involve an aluminum handle that houses a silicone reservoir and has a luer fitting attached to the distal end. Both passive (hand-operated) and active (connected to aspiration system) instruments are available. The handle of the active instrument contains a silicone tube with a female luer fitting to attach to an aspiration system.
