Healon5 sandwich technique for phacoemulsification in vitrectomized eyes
Accepted 30 September 2007.
We have developed a safe approach to phacoemulsificaiton in post-vectromized eyes. The technique, called the Healon5 sandwich, uses the viscoadaptive properties of sodium hyaluronate 2.3% (Healon5) to prevent a posterior chamber dehiscence.
