Abstract

Our aim is to describe and present the various steps involved in performing Manual SICS with special attention to the wound construction i.e the sclerocorneal tunnel. Wound construction plays a major role in MSICS and forms the backbone on which the successful completion of subsequent steps of capsulorrhexis, hydroprocedure and nucleus delivery depend on. The considerable handling inside the anterior chamber during nucleus delivery increase the chances of iris injury, striate keratitis, and posterior capsular rupture. Proper understanding of the various steps involved in the successful completion of MSICS can go a long way in preventing iatrogenic complications and achieving good visual outcomes.

Keywords: Sclerocorneal tunnel, Capsulorrhexis, Hydroprocedures, MSICS, IOL.
