Rhein 08-14537R Fine Nichamin I Quick Double Chopper Right Hand Dominant 5-1/2"

The Rhein 08-14537R Fine Nichamin I Quick Double Chopper is a specialized chopper purpose-built for the quick‑chop technique in cataract surgery. It features double-ended, angled shafts tuned for right‑hand dominant usage—enabling surgeons to split the lens nucleus with both horizontal and vertical chopping strokes. The refined design delivers rapid, controlled fragmentation essential for reducing ultrasound energy use and preserving endothelial integrity.

• Model: 08-14537R
• Angled Shaft (about 10 mm from bend to tip)
• Double-Ended
• Overall Length: 5-1/2 inches

Measuring approximately 5½ inches, this chopper is both compact and ergonomically balanced, making it well-suited for phaco workflows. The angled shafts (about 10 mm from bend to tip) improve access and visibility within the anterior chamber, promoting smooth insertion and minimized stress on ocular structures. Available in stainless steel or titanium with various handle options, it's engineered for comfort and reliability in high-precision procedures.

Favored by experienced surgeons, including Nicholas Nichamin, this chopper is recognized for enabling efficient and safe nucleus division—especially in small pupil cases or when visibility is limited. Its construction supports repeated sterilization cycles and long-term performance, making it a proven asset in modern cataract instrument sets.

These surgical instruments have been previously used and show visible signs of wear consistent with their prior usage. Despite these signs, they remain in a usable condition, suitable for continued medical procedures.
