Atkinson Peribulbar Cannula

About The Item:

The Atkinson Peribulbar Cannula is specifically engineered for the safe and controlled administration of ophthalmic anesthesia outside the muscle cone. Its design enables precise deposition of anesthetic around the globe, significantly reducing the risk of intraocular or intradural injection, making it a preferred choice for peribulbar and periocular regional blocks.

Manufactured with a smooth, atraumatic profile, the cannula ensures minimal tissue disruption and enhanced patient comfort during insertion. The carefully optimized length and gauge provide excellent maneuverability while allowing effective diffusion of anesthetic agents into the targeted peribulbar space.

Key design features typically include:

• Rounded, blunt-tip configuration to prevent accidental penetration of ocular structures

• Flexible or semi-rigid shaft options (depending on model) to improve control and reduce the risk of injury

• High-grade medical stainless steel or polymer construction ensuring durability and biocompatibility

• Luer-lock hub compatibility for secure connection with standard syringes

• Optimized curvature to conform naturally to peribulbar anatomy

This cannula is ideal for ophthalmic procedures requiring reliable anesthesia with a superior safety margin, offering clinicians enhanced control, reduced complications, and predictable anesthetic delivery.
