Abstract:
There are many good methods of removing lens cortex during extracapsular cataract extraction in use today. Features of some of these are presented. Flow volume of irrigation solution and depth of the anterior chamber are discussed, and it is recommended that adequate flow volume be used to maintain a comfortably deep anterior chamber during irrigation and aspiration.
