The koplight™ cordless surgical retractor emits light using a battery-operated LED. Created in the home of modern white LED technology, the koplight™ LED is optimized for peak efficiency in surgery, giving surgeons clearer sight lines and less hand fatigue. It’s a modern surgical device designed with uncompromising Japanese technology and craftsmanship.
While the high-quality LED module is reusable, the sterile single-use blade can be easily exchanged to suit a wide range of surgical needs. This optically designed transparent blade transmits consistent and shadowless lighting to deep surgical fields.
This lightweight and very bright (40,000+ lux) in-cavity lighting helps surgeons work with greater precision and efficiency. It’s maneuverable and versatile in breast surgery, plastic surgery and more (see below).

The koplight™ retractor lights your way, with optically designed dispersion of high-intensity lighting, and a flexible, user-oriented, modular system.
With reference to IEC 60601-2-41,1 koplight™ emits 40,000 to 160,000 lux illumination2 from the light emission points for surgeons to direct light on and into target areas.
High-end Japanese LED gives sufficient lighting while the transparent blade's optically engineered design diffuses consistent, shadowless light where needed and with minimal glare.
The koplight™ can be loaded with large-capacity NiMH batteries to provide lighting you can rely on for common surgical procedures.
A standard by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). “Medical electrical equipment – Part 2-41: Particular requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of surgical luminaires and luminaires for diagnosis”
2 Reference value only/varies by blade configuration. The illuminance measurement method differs from that of IEC 60601-2-41, as the conditions differ from traditional overhead surgical lamps.
The koplight™ light retractor weighs just 100–150 g1; 2–3x lighter than typical metal retractors. This reduces hand fatigue while the ergonomic design allows the maneuverability that surgeons need.
The transparent blade is virtually unbreakable under normal operating conditions, as it is made of polycarbonate, a material used in bulletproof glass (see test videos for more information).
The koplight™ is made of plastic and nonconductive anodized aluminum. This reduces the chances of complications associated with electrosurgery, such as burns caused by electric scalpels.
Equipped with high-performance Japan-made LED, the koplight™ LED handle is reusable for up to 3 years.1 This user-friendly setup can reduce material costs without compromising lighting quality.
koplight™ blades are provided sterilized and single-use2 giving doctors both convenience and a way to reduce the risk of cross-contamination.
Eight sizes of screw-on koplight™ blades are available to meet a broad array of surgical needs. The blades are switchable, even during surgical procedures.
