Lieberman V-Shaped Lid Speculum, Temporal Approach — Overview

The Lieberman V-Shaped Lid Speculum, Temporal Approach (SA-790-ls6 family) mirrors the nasal-approach V-shaped design in blade profile, sizing (12mm, 14mm, 17mm, 19mm), and material options (stainless steel or titanium), but with the arm geometry reversed so the instrument body sits nasally, clearing the temporal quadrant.

V-Shaped Blade, Temporal Configuration

The same angled, V-shaped blade profile that concentrates retraction force along the lid margin is retained in this temporal-approach version, giving surgeons who prefer that contact geometry a matched option for temporal-incision cataract surgery and similar approaches where the temporal quadrant needs to stay clear for a second instrument or the surgeon's primary working hand.

Four Sizes, Two Materials

The same 12/14/17/19mm size range as the nasal-approach version, in stainless steel or titanium, letting surgeons match blade width to individual patient anatomy or procedure requirements.

Clinical Use

This speculum is used in general cataract, anterior segment, and oculoplastic surgery performed via a temporal approach, by surgeons who favor the V-shaped blade design and need the temporal-configuration counterpart to the nasal-approach version.

Sterilization and Care

Fully autoclavable across all sizes and materials. Routine pre-use inspection for blade deformation and reduced spring tension is standard practice.
