A safe and successful capsulorhexis technique for the intumescent cataracts; modified two-stage continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis [PDF]
Background Capsulorhexis is the most important step in intumescent cataract due to the high risk of radial extension of the capsular tear during the cataract surgery.
