Intraoperative intracameral pilocarpine after capsular tension ring and capsule/iris hook insertion in pediatric eyes with subluxated cataract
Capsular tension rings and iris hooks have proved to be useful devices in cataract surgery in cases of zonular weakness and dialysis. We describe the use of intracameral pilocarpine-induced pupillary miosis to couple the iris and the capsulorhexis edge with iris hooks during phacoemulsification in pediatric cases with posttraumatic subluxated cataractous lens. The coupled iris and capsule act as a single unit, eliminating the space between them and significantly reducing the possibility of vitreous or ophthalmic viscosurgical device passing through the zonular defect.
