Cutter, Prototype, 1970
Metal, plastic
Gift of Robert Machemer, MD
2004.004.00001 An electric motor drives a drill bit
inside a metal tube. Vitreous is
aspirated through the tube which
has an opening near its end and is
then cut by the rotating drill bit
and moved out of the open eye.
Such a vitreous suction cutter
was used for an open sky
vitrectomy for the first time in
December 1969. |
