This study describes a hybrid bimanual phacoemulsification technique for safely removing firm cataracts. The method combines existing approaches for effective lens nucleus dissection and removal in complex cases.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Surgical Techniques

Background:

  • Phacoemulsification is a standard cataract surgery method.
  • Removing firm lens nuclei can be challenging.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a novel hybrid bimanual phacoemulsification technique.
  • To facilitate dissection and removal of firm lens nuclei.

Main Methods:

  • A hybrid bimanual phacoemulsification technique is detailed.
  • Incorporates posterior and peripheral nuclear bowl fiber separation (nuclear fracture).
  • Anatomic dissection within the capsular bag using a 45-degree tip on separated nuclear components.

Main Results:

  • The technique allows for effective dissection of firm lens nuclei.

  • The hybrid approach is applicable to a wide range of surgeons performing phacoemulsification.

    • Conclusions:

    • This hybrid bimanual phacoemulsification technique offers a viable solution for managing firm cataracts.
    • It integrates successful elements from various surgical approaches for improved outcomes.
