Castroviejo Needle Holder, Heavy, With Small Lock, 16mm Straight Jaws, Flat Serrated Handle, Overall Length 5-7/8" (148mm)

Heavier than the standard pattern, this Castroviejo needle holder handles larger scleral and lid sutures that fine models cannot rotate comfortably. Sixteen‑millimeter straight jaws grip the needle squarely, and a small lock holds it between throws. The flat serrated handle reads at 148mm, lengthened to give the wrist more leverage during through‑and‑through scleral passes.

Features & Benefits

• Heavy 16mm straight jaws drive larger scleral needles
