VivaMedix MicroSuture Pad — Ophthalmology & Microsurgery Training Pad

Built for microsurgery

Normal suturing pads are made for skin wounds. Ophthalmic work is far smaller. This pad matches it: every wound is cut between 0.3 mm and 1 mm — the real range of corneal, limbal and microvascular repair. Work it under loupes or a microscope with 6-0 to 10-0 suture.

What’s on the working surface

The 5 × 4 cm raised platform takes you from basic to complex:

• Corneal and limbal rings — radial and interrupted corneal suturing, knot burial
• Straight micro-incisions — needle entry, bite depth, tension control
• Oval and elliptical defects — edge apposition
• Wavy and irregular wounds — non-linear wound tracking
• Stellate, Y, V, T and cross lacerations — complex repair and knot sequencing

It stays exactly where you put it

Under magnification, one millimetre of movement ruins the pass. The 2 mm frame around the platform grips the bench on its own. For full stability, push needles through the frame into the surface below — the pad is anchored for the whole session. No clamps, no tape, both hands free.

Sized for your field of view

8.5 × 7.3 cm — the width of a credit card. It fits entirely inside the microscope field. The platform sits 1 cm off the bench, giving your needle holder clearance underneath and keeping your wrist at a natural angle.

Silicone, and reusable

Soft-firm silicone that holds its cut edges through repeated passes. Wounds don’t tear open or widen after a few knots.

The first one made in Egypt

No other microsurgery pad is available on the Egyptian market. Designed and made in-house by VivaMedix — no import wait, no customs, no inflated price.
