This delicate straight Castroviejo needle holder emphasizes fine-jaw geometry optimized for 9-0 through 11-0 sutures in corneal and conjunctival repair. The lock mechanism eliminates spring action, reducing fatigue during extended fine-suture closure. A 15mm mid-screw-to-tip length and serrated spring handle provide stable closure geometry. 140mm overall length supports controlled reach in anterior segment microsurgery.
