Intratunnel Phacofracture Technique of the Manual
Small Incision Cataract Surgery
Intratunnel
phacofracture technique is a new technique of the
manual small incision cataract surgery (MSICS).In
this technique nucleus is broken inside the 4 to 6
mm wide sclero-corneal tunnel with the help of the
Lewis lens loop. MSICS
is significantly faster, less expensive, and less
technology-dependent than phacoemulsification and
has been extensively practiced in developing
countries such as India. However, the drawback of
most commonly practiced MSICS techniques Blumenthal,
visco-expression, irrigating wire vectis, and
fish-hook needle is that they all require a large
incision of 7 to 9 mm, which leads to induced
astigmatism. The
Intratunnel Phacofracture technique was
innovated by Dr Sudhir Singh1,2
