FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: method involves doing an additional pierce near the rupture boundary at the place the capsulorhexis continuation is to be available when capsule rupture runs towards periphery during guiding flap traction. The capsulorhexis is finished by circularly pulling the edge of the newly formed opening.
EFFECT: enhanced effectiveness in producing round central flexible opening resistive to manipulations in posterior chamber; prevented center deflection and dislocation of intraocular lens.
