摘要：

A series of 3 vitreoretinal dissection instruments with a constant-diameter shaft and various tip designs including a 90.degree. hooked tip, a 130.degree. hooked tip, and a blunt-tip right-angle spatula was developed and clinically evaluated. The instruments, manufactured from a titanium alloy, are lightweight and glare-resistant. These instruments were used interchangeably with other vitreous surgery instruments introduced through a 20 gauge sclerotomy. They facilitate delicate manipulations associated with separation of epiretinal membranes from the inner and retinal surface.
