What is the calibre of the Gore-tex suture?

Great video and great surgery, well done. But why use triescence? Why not Kenalog? Such a waste of money to use something that costs 20 x as much when it is only in there for a few seconds.

Thanks for the great video and technique. How do you determine IOL power for this placement?
