Microincisional Surgery with Softec HD IOL

Show Description +

David W. Jackson, MD, uses a diamond blade to make a 1.8mm incision temporally. After removing the cataract, a Softec HD aspheric lens (Lenstec) was inserted in a wound assist manner through the microincision. The lens unfolds slowly, allowing the surgeon to ensure the leading haptic is positioned in the capsular bag.
