Résumé
Retro-intraocular lens (IOL) irrigation-aspiration is of paramount importance in order to remove the viscoelastic substance from the retro-IOL space and to prevent any early post-operative capsular block syndrome. However, manoeuvring the IOL to reach the retro-IOL space may be difficult at the hands of novice surgeons despite the use of coaxial or bimanual irrigation-aspiration probes. We describe a simpler and safer technique in order to facilitate the removal of this retro-IOL viscoelastic substance using a 26-Gauge bent-cannula mounted on a 2-ml syringe. The fluid is injected forcefully along with sideways movement of cannula in a single-plane to displace the viscoelastic substance.
