[Capsulorhexis with a manual extracapsular extraction technic-- initial experience].
Capsulorhexis is a modern way of opening of the anterior capsule. The author describes the technique of capsulorhexis, he used on 52 eyes. When capsulorhexis is performed in ECCE, delivery of lens nucleus is more difficult. The author used either "Keyhole" modification or hydroexpression described by Thiem, Corydon with combination of reduction of the nucleus described by Nishi. He achieved very good results but does not recommend this method for the inexperienced extracapsular surgeons.
