Anterior capulotomy a) Can – opener capsulotomy:
is performed by making a series of small connected tears in a circle to remove the central segment of anterior lens capsule
![Page 4: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)

This method permits easy access to and subluxation of the lens nucleus , but it usually result in radial tears in the anterior capsule extending from one or more of the initial puncture sites out to
the periphery of the capsule
![Page 6: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The radial tears can enlarge during hydrodissection or nucleus manipulatin , and
they can affect IOL placement and stabilization
![Page 7: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Placement of both IOL haptics in the bag may be difficult , and unequal postoperative contractile forces within the capsular bag may cause IOL dislocation
![Page 8: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

b) Continuous – tear circular capsulorrhexis
provides a more stable smooth edge to the anterior capsular opening
![Page 10: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The surgeon begins an anterior capsulorrhexis with a central linear cut in the anterior capsule , using a cystotome needle
![Page 11: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

At the end of the linear cut, the needle is either pushed or pulled in the direction of the desired tear . Allowing the anterior capsule to fold over upon itself
![Page 13: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
![Page 14: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The surgeon then engages the free edge of the anterior capsule with either forceps or the capsulotomy needle and the flap is carried around in a circular manner as the surgeon directs the tension toward the center of the lens
![Page 15: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
![Page 16: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
For maximum control , frequent regrasping of the flap near the tear is helpful
![Page 17: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Radial extension of the capsulotomy may occur in the setting of forward displacement of the lens with shallowing of the anterior chamber or anterior traction on the capsular
flap
![Page 18: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
If the capsulorrhexis tear starts to extend too far peripherally , the flap can sometimes be salvaged and the tear brought more centrally
![Page 19: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
First the surgeon should check for positive vitrous pressure associated with forward displacement of the lens.
This may be caused by the capsulotomy instrument , the surgeons fingers , or the lid speculum pressing against the globe
It can be corrected.
![Page 20: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Refilling the anterior chamber with viscoelastic , and inserting a second instrument ( such as an iris spatula ) through the paracentesis to press posteriorly on the lens may help reduce forward displacement of the lens and allow for redirection of the
capsular tear.
![Page 21: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
![Page 22: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Purpose and advantages of capsulorrhexis
1 )No tags or flaps anterior capsular remnants interfere with surgery , especially the aspiration of the
peripheral cortex
![Page 23: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
2 )The mechanical forces exerted onto the zonules were minimal with this technique.
![Page 24: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
3)The capsular bag is wide open during surgery especially with a closed system approach ;the posterior
capsule is ballooned posteriorly .
![Page 25: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
This gives the surgeon ample space to work in far away from the cornea and with greatly reduced risk of catching the posterior capsule as compared
with when it is flaccid.
![Page 26: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
4)With an intact capsulorrhexis , manipulations within the capsualr bag such as tilting or cracking the nucleus or implanting an IOL , no longer entail the risk of extending radial teras in the anterior capsulse
into the posterior capsule.
![Page 27: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
5)Even in the case of a posterior capsule defect , regaedless of its size an intact anterior capsulorrhexis provide the possibility of implanting an IOL safely into the ciliary sulcus
![Page 28: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

Complication and pitfalls
![Page 30: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
1 )Discontinuity of the anterior capsular rim.
2 )Capsulorhexis with too small a diameter.
3 )Viscoelastic incarcerations.
![Page 31: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Discontinuity of the anterior capsular rimTo avoid this complication the capsulorhexis should never be completed inside out.Stellate bursts originating from initial puncturing attempts with a blunt needle may desroy an intact capsular margin.
In the course of surgery to form a discontinuity.The only effective remedy to repair discontinuity by transformation of the tear in to smooth edge.
![Page 32: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Discontinuity of the anterior capsular rim
![Page 33: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
-In performing the capsulorhexis , the surgen may realize that the original arc is too small
_The capsulorhexis can be expanded by spiralling outward to the desired diameter and
then “closing the circle“
Capsulorhexis with too small a diameter
![Page 34: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
_If the anterior capsular rim adheres to the anterior IOL surface after implantation , viscoelastics residues may trapped behind the lens.
_If it does , mostly the lense blocks the passage for the viscoelastics in to the anterior chamber and at the same time allows the aqueous to invade the area behind the implant .
Viscoelastic incarcerations
![Page 35: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Thus pushing the IOL in to the cornea.
_in such a situation an additional puncture of the peripheral anterior or in narrow pupils – posterior capsule is required to provide for a release of the viscoelastics in to the anterior chamber or the vitreous.

Disadvantages of the CCC :Capsular shrinkage syndrom or capsularphimosis
_This complication is not known in any other capsulotomy technique and solely relates to the CCC.
_The genuine pathomechanism could not be clarified untile tody.
Disadvantages of the CCC :Capsular shrinkage syndrom or capsularphimosis

Clinically this problem can be observed especially in patients suffering from pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PEX) , uveitis , rtinopathy pigmentosa or subluxation in combination with PMMA or silicone IOL implantation.
_ All these diseases have a considerably reduced number of zonula fibers in common.
![Page 55: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
_This complicltion has not been described in patients suffering from these diseases in context with an acrylic IOL implantation.
Allows the conclusion that a certain mechanical intraction of acrylic lenes surface and capsule successfully prevents this problem so that the acrylic IOL is presently the lense of choise in such cases.
![Page 56: Capsulotomy CCC](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56815fd3550346895dced1eb/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
_This is not valid for low _ water acrylics.
_A potential remedy to avoid capsular phimosis is the insertion of a capsular tention ring .
