Anterior cerclage and accessory implants for post-equatorial breaks.
The advantages of the anterior-cerclage accessory buckle technique over the posteriorcerclage technique for treatment of post-equatorial breaks are stressed. The former technique leads to less frequent occurrence of post-operative vitreous retraction, meridional retinal folds and less danger of iris prolapse, and vitreous loss if the globe is to be opened for intraocular surgery later.
