Eye (ophthalmic) implantable clips designed to secure the overlapped ends of an implantable ophthalmic circling band. These clips are typically very tiny, U-shaped, metal (e.g., tantalum) devices with ends that close around the circling band. Iris-implantable clips are used in the scleral buckling technique, a surgical procedure intended for retinal reattachment.
