The gentle curve on this Castroviejo needle holder lets the surgeon approach scleral and limbal pass points without obscuring the suture path. Its 13mm delicate jaws hold fine ophthalmic needles with the precise grip the pattern was designed for, and the lock secures the needle between rotations. A serrated 140mm handle supports the fingertip roll used during continuous corneal suturing.
