Abstract
A punch for cutting a corneal graft includes a base having a support surface for corneal tissue and a blade holder provided with at least one blade. The base includes a guide for guiding the blade holder in translation along a central axis normal to the support surface between a first position in which the blade is spaced apart from the support sur-face and a second position in which the blade is adjacent to the support surface. The blade is a blade for partitioning corneal tissue extending substantially in a radial direction with respect to the central axis.
