Abstract
-
The intercapsular cataract extraction using the Anis Dry Technique offered the greatest protection to the corneal endothelium. This clinically manifested itself by a much clearer cornea the morning after surgery, as well as a much quieter eye. However intercapsular phacoemuslfication and intercapsular automated irrigation/aspiration likewise produced very good results with great protection to the endothelial cells of the cornea.
