A technique for contact lens fixation during vitreous surgery.
The authors describe a technique for contact lens fixation during vitreous surgery. A contact lens support ring was designed that requires only a single suture for fixation and provides improved stability and centering of a sutured fundus contact lens. These features save time and allow concentration on the surgical goals rather than on the contact lens.
