FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: method involves implanting T-28 intraocular lens. The lens is introduced through self-sealing incision in the anterior chamber. Capsulorhexis edge is pulled by means of a microhook towards sack equator in sheath defect zone, 30-60° far from the defect border nearest to the incision. Then, the first and the second supporting element is introduced in turn through capsulorhexis towards retained Zinn sheath fibers in performing rotating movement using instrument, advancing them towards internal sack equator. The moved-aside capsulorhexis edge is hold until the intraocular lens movement is accomplished.
EFFECT: hindered capsule sack displacement; reliable intracapsular intraocular T-28 lens fixation; reduced risk of postoperative complications.
