Enlarging the capsulorhexis

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 1997
We describe a method to enlarge an initial small capsulorhexis using an iris spatula and cystotome needle. The iris spatula is placed underneath the anterior capsulorhexis margin; the spatula supports the anterior capsule and protects the posterior capsule. A gentle touch on the spatula by the cystotome needle generates a break in the continuity.

Vacuum capsulorhexis

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 1995
A new method of performing continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis is described. It involves the use of a fine point of suction applied to the torn flap of anterior capsule through a fine cannula. This technique offers excellent control of the tear and requires no viscoelastic to maintain the anterior chamber.

Advances in capsulorhexis

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2019
Continuous curvilinear manual capsulorhexis is currently the standard of cataract surgery. In the past several years, new technologies have been developed to improve the consistency and safety of capsulorhexis creation. This article reviews the most recent technologies in capsulotomy formation and their advantages and disadvantages.Guidance devices ...

Capsulorhexis in intumescent cataract

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 1999
This technique of anterior capsulorhexis is for use in eyes with high intralenticular pressure and absence of red reflex as encountered in intumescent cataract. The initial steps of fashioning the anterior capsular flap and lens decompression are done under the microscope's high magnification and noncoaxial oblique illumination.

Capsulorhexis-related lacteocrumenasia

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 1997
Three patients who presented with a milky fluid in the space between the posterior surface of implanted intraocular lens (IOL) and the anterior surface of the distended posterior capsular bag are described. The patients were followed and were noted to have changes in their benign course after several years.
