What is the solution of cataract?

Cataract surgery involves removing the clouded lens and replacing it with a clear artificial lens. The artificial lens, called an intraocular lens, is positioned in the same place as your natural lens. It remains a permanent part of your eye. For some people, other eye problems prohibit the use of an artificial lens.

Can a hydrodissection have prevented a cataract complication?

What are the defects in the capsulorrhexis of cataract?

My personal choice was to add three more defects in the capsulorrhexis, at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock relative to the incision. In doing so, I referenced a lesson learned from can-opener capsulotomy in ECCE—in these cases, we never saw wraparound tears when we expressed the intact large nucleus through the capsulotomy.
