Show Description +

Once an iris prolapses once, it continues to prolapse throughout the case. Iris prolapse occurs when the pupil is small, when a small pupil requires stretching, and when a small pupil secondary to posterior synechia requires stretching. The surgeon presents several tips for managing iris prolapse during emulsification. [Video Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery (VJCRS Volume XVII Issue 1) 2001]
