Cataract wound closure with polyglactin 910 following insertion of a 4-loop Binkhorst lens: preliminary report
Abstract:
In this preliminary report our results with 8-0 braided polyglactin 910 suture for cataract wound closure after insertion of a 4-loop Binkhorst lens were encouraging. However, more experience is required before valid conclusions can be reached regarding its safety. Early experience indicates that the surgeon should approach the use of 9-0 monofilament polyglactin 910 suture for cataract wound closure following insertion of an intraocular lens with extreme caution.
