Diamonds for Ziemer SWISSBLADE knives are ground to unsurpassed sharpness that never becomes dull from cutting corneal tissue. Diamond blades can be used repeatedly to create precise and distortion-free incisions. Diamond blades dissect tissue without any pressure and tearing, thereby reducing the risk of inducing astigmatism.
SWISSBLADE Disposable Surgical Blades are formed from stainless steel under carefully controlled conditions:
Blade hardness and elasticity is enhanced by a proprietary thermal vacuum treatment and the cutting edges are sharpened by a special chemical etching process. A unique coating gives the blade its superior penetrating and sliding characteristics.
