[Valvular suture-free adaptable incision of the cornea in the microsurgery of cataract].
A corneal oblique incision running along the chord relative to the limbus has been developed, which enables to finish an operation without suturing the incision. A reliable union of the incision edges is attained after air injection to the anterior chamber, the incision being no more than 5 or 5.5 mm. The incision was used in 72 clinical operations for extraction of congenital, secondary, and traumatic cataracts. The shape of incision, absence of sutures and additional injury caused by removal of sutures helped reduce the postoperative astigmatism and brought about good functional results.
