Finsen Self Retaining Retractors

Finsen Self Retaining Retractors are self retaining and hand held. Hand held retractors are to be held by the assistants while the procedure takes place whereas the self retaining retractors can simply be locked into the appropriate place and made to maintain the position they are kept at. Once the position has been fixed, it does not need to be held manually. Even though hand held retractors are considered to be more flexible, it is easier to maintain a certain retraction level while using the self retaining retractor.
