Capsulorhexis made simple for beginning Cataract Surgeons

Описание к видео Capsulorhexis made simple for beginning Cataract Surgeons

A very simple technique for new surgeons who are struggling with the capsulorhexis is to trace the intended path with the tips of the forceps. If the forceps tip traces a circle, then a perfect capsulorhexis will follow.

It sounds very easy, but there are some important caveats:

the forceps must float in the incision and avoid gaping it open because this will cause loss of the viscoelastic and then shallowing of the anterior chamber
the forceps must trace this circle by pivoting within the incision since this motion allows creation of accurate curves
the anterior capsule should be grabbed appropriately with care taken to keep the flap folded over for the most control.
