title: A technical variation of posterior chamber IOL implantation.
abstract: In posterior chamber intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, one of the most delicate phases is placing the loops in the capsular bag or in the ciliary sulcus. We describe a technique to simplify the phase of IOL insertion by tying the superior loop with a nylon suture. No changes to the lens and no special instruments are required.
