Practice every suturing technique your wetlab demands — corneal, scleral, lid and strabismus sutures across the full range of materials and gauges.
Sutures 4 Practice is a range of single-use training sutures for ophthalmic wetlab practice, covering the materials and needle configurations trainees encounter in real procedures — from fine 10/0 corneal sutures to heavier 4/0 lid and muscle sutures. Sourcing clinical-grade sutures for repeated training is expensive; this range makes realistic, true-to-feel sutures accessible for wetlab use without the cost barrier.
Choose individual suture types to match your training scenario, or stock the full range for a complete suturing station.
Our recommendation for eyelid and strabismus models: for the M.A.R.K.O. LID, KANTHO LID and Strabismus Lid we recommend the Suture 5/0 Polypropylene Blue 90 cm Double (PN0424). It holds securely in the models' tissue layers and does not tear out as quickly during repeated practice.
