Profile of corneal incisions in cataract phacoemulsification
One of the significant stages in cataract phacoemulsification is a construction of corneal incision. Conditions for phacoemulsification, magnitude of induced astigmatism, reliability of anterior chamber hermeticity depend upon its configuration. We suggest creating a single profile parabolic incision, which combines the rapidity of creation of the ordinary single profile incision and the sufficient thickness of the anterior chamber. The profile of the incision was examined using spectral optical coherence tomography. The incision possesses the optimum parameters, ensures the reliable hermeticity of the anterior chamber and is astigmatically neutral.
