| Abstract;We attempted intracameral illumination during phacoemulsification and aspiration (PEA) in 3 eyes of 2 cases with corneal opacity. This technique involves inserting a light pipe for vitreous surgery into the anterior chamber, and performing PEA. The entire procedure was done safely with good visualization of intraocular structure, and no complications. Visual acuity improved in all patients. This technique is simple and less invasive, eliminating intraoperative complications. (author abst.) |
