Iridodialysis Repair

Show Description +

Ike K. Ahmed, MD, demonstrates the repair of traumatic iridodialysis in a phakic eye. The crystalline lens was clear, with reasonable vision in a young patient so careful repair of the iris trauma was performed while avoiding lens touch. Three vertical mattress sutures repair the 5 clock hours of iridialysis. Dr. Ahmed prefers not to make pockets as direct visualization of sclera facilitates assessment of optimal suture tension.
