LAL Explantation: Novel Rip Technique

Show Description +

This technique is for a treated Light Adjustable Lens (RxSight) that needs to be explanted. There are no scissors involved, making it a gentler process due to smaller instrumentation requirements. Furthermore, there is no concern for fragmentation and splintering of the lens that may happen with scissors.
