Suture-Needle-Snare Technique for Scleral Fixation.
2021
ABSTRACT Current scleral suture fixation techniques pose challenges for highly complex eyes. A scleral suture fixation technique using a snare that is fashioned out of a 27 gauge needle and 8-0 nylon suture is described. This technique is well-suited for scleral suture fixation in complex eyes because it reduces risk factors for intraoperative and post-operative complications, simplifies intraocular maneuvers, minimizes surgical trauma, and does not require specialized microinstrumentation.
