Abstract

We describe a technique of enlarging a small primary capsulorhexis. Two Sinskey hooks are introduced through the side ports. One hook is placed above the anterior capsulorhexis margin with its tip pointing down, and the other is placed beneath the anterior capsulorhexis margin with its tip pointing up. A small nick is made between the tips of the 2 hooks, and the capsulorhexis is extended with a Utrata capsulorhexis forceps. This technique does not require additional instrumentation, impart zonular stress, or disturb wound architecture or integrity.
