Medlene® Barkan Goniotomy Knife is a specialized device that ophthalmological surgeons use to perform delicate incisions in the eye’s tissues, in order to create an opening in the trabecular meshwork of pediatric patients.
- Convex Cutting Edge to Perform Exceptional Divisions.
- Tapered Shaft for Accessing the Anterior Chamber.
