Product Description

Nylon Monofilament Ophthalmic Sutures USP 7/0 – 12 Pcs Non-Absorbable with Needle

The Stellmacher Nylon Monofilament Ophthalmic Surgical Sutures USP 7/0 feature fine, non-absorbable black nylon thread made from high-quality Polyamide 6/6.6 nylon. Paired with a precision 8mm, 3/8-circle reverse cutting needle, these sutures are designed for controlled needle handling, precise stitch placement, and delicate soft tissue approximation in selected ophthalmic and microsurgical applications.

Each suture features 45cm (18 inches) of black nylon monofilament thread attached to a stainless steel surgical needle. The fine USP 7/0 (0.5 Metric) configuration supports accurate tissue approximation and careful needle placement in appropriate ophthalmic, plastic, and reconstructive surgical procedures. Supplied in sterile, single-use packaging, with 12 sutures per box.
