Barraquer Cilia Forceps – Precision Ophthalmic Instrument
The Barraquer Cilia Forceps is a surgical tool that eye care professionals use for grasping and removing eyelashes during the treatment of trichiasis (ingrown eyelashes). The instrument’s fine, smooth tips are designed to grasp individual lashes firmly without pinching the surrounding eyelid skin.
The 11 cm overall length provides an excellent balance between reach and precision, allowing the clinician to work comfortably near the eye. Furthermore, the flat, fenestrated handle reduces the instrument’s weight and ensures a secure, non-slip grip during precise, repetitive movements.

Medical Applications
Eye care professionals select the Barraquer cilia forceps for epilation of ingrown eyelashes, trichiasis treatment, and other minor eyelid procedures. The fine tips allow for precise grasping of individual lashes, minimizing discomfort and tissue trauma.
Because precise control is essential when working near the cornea and eyelid margin, the fine tips and balanced length help maintain steady positioning. For related ophthalmic instruments, explore our Ophthalmic Instruments or view our Beer Cilia Forceps.
Durable Stainless Steel Design
Manufacturers construct the instrument from surgical-grade stainless steel, which resists corrosion and holds up across repeated sterilization cycles. The fine tips maintain their alignment over time, ensuring reliable grasping performance. (Learn more about trichiasis from Wikipedia).
Handle the instrument carefully to protect the fine tips, as even slight bending can affect precision during epilation.
