FORCEPS TREATMENT SYSTEMS

Abstract:

Forceps treatment systems are described in which a forceps apparatus may generally comprise a first handle and a second handle coupled to one another near or at respective proximal ends. A first paddle may be coupled to the first handle and define a first inner surface, a second paddle may be coupled to the second handle and define a second inner surface which is positioned in apposition to the first inner surface. Furthermore, a debriding member may extend proximally from the first and second handles and reduce and curve gently to define a debriding edge for debriding tissue in proximity to one or more meibomian glands. The forceps apparatus may be used in combination with a heat treatment for treating one or more meibomian glands in a subject.
