This is a patient who had a frayed iris after cataract surgery referred in for repair. She was bothered by glare and the cosmesis created by the defect. The frayed area was oversewn during which a buttonhole developed threatening to extend the problem more peripherally. This video demonstrates the technique of repairing this problem.
