ABSTRACT:
An optic nerve clamp, useful for surgical enucleation includes a pair of clampingly abutting, pivotally connected jaws with tip portions which curve out of the plane perpendicular to and extending through the pivot axis of said jaws. One of the tip portions is longer than the other so that an offset is formed between their tapered ends. The region of overlap between the two tip portions is serrated but the extension of the longer tip portion beyond the shorter tip portion is substantially smooth.
