During vitreoretinal surgery, the microvitreoretinal blade may be misdirected and injure operating room personnel. A sheated, retractable blade has been developed to reduce the likelihood of such injuries. In the blade's retracted position, a safety feature prevents inadvertent exposure of the sharp blade. This device may have its greatest utility in operating on patients with cytomegalovirus retinitis who require either retinal reattachment surgery or placement of a ganciclovir implant.
在玻璃体视网膜手术中，微型玻璃体视网膜刀可能会误操作并伤害手术室人员。一种带护套的可伸缩刀片已被研发出来以降低此类伤害的可能性。在刀片缩回位置，一种安全装置可防止锋利刀片意外暴露。该装置在为患有巨细胞病毒性视网膜炎且需要进行视网膜复位手术或植入更昔洛韦植入物的患者进行手术时可能具有最大的效用。
