Suction posterior capsulorhexis

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 1999
A technique for creating a posterior capsulorhexis during phacoemulsification is presented. It can be used in cases with posterior capsule tears or opacities. The free edge of the capsule is grasped with suction using a 2 mL syringe and a 27 gauge Rycroft cannula introduced via the paracentesis.

Mechanics of capsulorhexis

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 1992
Continuous (central, circular) curvilinear capsulorhexis (CCC), first introduced by Gimbel and Neuhann, has become increasingly popular, especially for endolenticular phacoemulsification with intracapsular intraocular lens implantation. The principles of simple mechanics are used to facilitate teaching the procedure and to reduce the incidence of ...

Direct puncture capsulorhexis

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2005
I describe a simple technique for performing capsulorhexis without viscoelastic material or expensive instruments. A slightly barbed, bent, 30-gauge needle is used to directly puncture clear cornea and create a capsulorhexis without the need for a groove or stab incision. Hydrodissection is carried out with the attached 1 cc syringe (tuberculin) filled

Forceps for capsulorhexis

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 1996
Conventional continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis (CCC) by forceps is connected with use of viscoelastics. A new model of forceps allows CCC without a viscoelastic and has the advantage of a bent-needle cystotome because the terminal part of the instrument is the size of a bent needle.

Capsulorhexis Contracture in Phacoemulsification Surgery

Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 1994
ABSTRACT We report two cases of capsulorhexis contracture and eventual complete closure after phacoemulsification surgery. The closures significantly decreased vision, but vision improved in both cases following successful Nd:YAG laser treatment.

[Capsulorhexis].

Oftalmologia (Bucharest, Romania : 1990), 2005
The continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis (CCC) has paved the way for advancements in phacoemulsification by providing a tear-resistant opening in the anterior capsule. This article presents the advantages of the (CCC) and the management of challenging situations related to the (CCC).

New disposable cystotome for capsulorhexis

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 1989
Circular tear capsulotomy, or capsulorhexis, is becoming an increasingly popular method of anterior capsulotomy. We describe a new cystotome with a simple tip modification which is useful for performing a circular tear capsulotomy. The cystotome is a 27 gauge disposable device that is similar to a conventional cystotome used for a can-opener-type ...

Postoperative complications of capsulorhexis

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 1993
Capsulorhexis has become the preferred method of anterior capsulotomy, and untoward effects have not been frequently noted. Nevertheless, distinct complications of continuous tear anterior capsulotomy are now recognized. These include capsular bag hyperdistention, shrinkage of the anterior capsule opening with visual loss and/or intraocular lens ...
