Abstract
A technique for nucleus delivery through a continuous circular capsulorhexis in planned extracapsular cataract extraction is presented. The concept of hydro- and viscoexpression of the nucleus is explained, and a strongly bent cannula specially designed for the procedure is introduced.Keywords
