[The first results of cataract phacoemulsification made by bimanual technique].
The results of 112 operations of bimanual ultrasound lens extraction through microincisions in cataracts of varying severity and origin are assessed in patients aged 46 to 85 years. The parameters of operation of ultrasound devices, the designs of accessory instruments (cataract hydrochoppers), and a nuclear scission procedure are considered. It is noted that this procedure is convenient in complicated cases: rigid iris and lens dislocation. The operations were observed to show a high efficiency: no postoperative astigmatism and rapid rehabilitation.
