Abstract

There are several popular methods for creating a continuous-tear capsulotomy, or capsulorhexis, which usually involve several instruments and steps. This report describes a new forceps for capsulorhexis that can be used to open the capsule and complete the circular tear in one step. Its unique features are its small size, shortened length, thin, rounded blades with cystotome-type tips for opening the capsule, and round handles for manipulation ease.
