Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
We describe a technique for heavy silicone oil removal combined with phacoemulsification and intraocular lens insertion without scleral incisions or sutures using a modified 16-gauge cannula. The technique is less invasive than other techniques for removing silicone oil and does not interfere with the uveal tract or the peripheral retina. |
