Mamalis, Nick; Kleinmann, Guy; Chew, Jesse; Apple, David J. | Suturing a tear of the anterior capsulorhexis | AIM: To describe a new technique of suturing a tear in the anterior capsulorhexis. METHODS: Continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis (CCC) with lens removal was done in five fresh cadaver eyes. The diameter of the CCC was measured with a calliper. Using the same calliper a tear of the CCC was created wh... | Continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis; intraocular lens implantation; tear | 2006 |
