Résumé
We describe a novel surgical technique of slit-beam retro-illumination assisted phacoemulsification for cataract with coexisting corneal opacity. We present two cases with cataract and coexisting opacity, who underwent slitbeam retro-illumination assisted phacoemulsification and further application of same process in 12 patients. This technique is safe and provides excellent visualization during cataract surgery in patients with corneal opacities.
