George Bohigian described and published this in Ocular Surgery News years ago and should be given credit for this technique.

very nice tip , I had similar problem before, but for me it was one haptic, I use viscoat cannula to release the haptic while injecting viscoat slowly

adding BSS to the tip of the inserter before entering the eye prevents this stickiness, nice tip though if it does happen
