- Applicable to atrophic iris, posterior adhesion, small pupils that cannot be dilated by drugs, need to be done
- 1. Apply visco-elastic agent to maintain anterior chamber depth and limit bleeding.
- 2. When a transparent lens is present, first inject viscoelastic agent into the posterior chamber and deepen the posterior chamber before operation, so as not to damage the lens.
