The Sandwich Phaco Technique

Ming Chen MD

Show Description +

Ming Chen, MD, carefully makes a 6.5-7mm capsulorhexis and performs hydrodissection. Then Dr. Chen injects VISCOAT (Alcon) behind the nucleus and uses the cannula to lift it into the supra nuclear position. The nucleus is sandwiched between OVD protecting the posterior capsule and corneal endothelium, hence the name of "Sandwich Phaco Technique."

I am afraid that this technique might not be very popular. Leaves the optic of iol uncovered by anterior capsule. Also, if some mishaps takes place, u have minimal anterior capsule to plan something in sulcus
