Continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis

SUMMARY

Authors present a method on doing continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis that is based on literature and personal experience. Such a method has showed to be safer, easier and more precise than the traditional ones. The main difference between it and the others is the direction that the tractional force is employed on the capsular flap. We discuss about several other technics of continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis.
