Crawford Bicanaliculus Lacrimal Intubation Set | Model S1-1270U | Sizing: 0.64 mm Silicone Tube Diameter x 300 mm Working Length | Dual Pre-Attached Stainless Steel Probes with Atraumatic Rounded Olive Tips | Sterile Single-Use Nasolacrimal Duct Stenting Element | Box of 3

Expiration: 2030-02-01

The FCI Ophthalmics S1-1270U (REF S1.1270U) is a professional-grade, sterile, single-use oculoplastic device expertly engineered to restore and maintain long-term upper urinary-equivalent tear drainage patency by splinting the human lacrimal outflow pathway. Indicated for complex canalicular system stenoses, traumatic laceration splinting, obstructions, and revision dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) surgeries, this bicanalicular intubation framework is also a benchmark treatment for severe, probing-resistant congenital nasolacrimal duct obstructions (NLDO) in pediatric patients. The device consists of an ultra-flexible, highly biocompatible medical-grade silicone stent measuring 0.64 mm in outer diameter and 300 mm in length, which is securely bonded at both terminal ends to malleable stainless steel introducing probes. Each metallic guide is precision-capped with a non-traumatic, rounded olive tip specifically designed to travel down the upper and lower puncta, traverse the lacrimal sac, and emerge beneath the inferior nasal meatus. When paired with a specialized Crawford retrieval hook (Model S1.1275, distributed separately), the olive tips lock into the hook mechanism within the nasal cavity for effortless, low-traction endonasal extraction, reducing mucosal trauma and eliminating blind intranasal fumbling.
