    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Surgical Techniques
    • Oculoplastics

    Background:

    • Extraocular muscle reattachment is crucial after various ophthalmic procedures.
    • Current methods may pose risks to anatomical integrity.
    • A need exists for a safer, more precise suturing technique.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce a new method for suturing extraocular muscles.
    • To demonstrate its safety and anatomical accuracy in muscle reattachment.
    • To provide an improved technique for recession, resection, and retinal surgery.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a novel suturing technique for extraocular muscles.
    • Application of the method in cases requiring muscle recession or resection.
    • Utilisation of the technique following muscle disinsertion during retinal surgery.

    Main Results:

    • The presented method offers a safe approach to extraocular muscle reattachment.
    • Achieves anatomically perfect restoration of muscle insertion.
    • Demonstrates efficacy in diverse surgical scenarios.

    Conclusions:

    • The novel suturing technique provides a safe and anatomically precise means of reattaching extraocular muscles.
    • It is suitable for use after recession, resection, and muscle disinsertion in retinal surgery.
    • This method represents an advancement in ophthalmic surgical practice.
