Abstract
We describe a simple automated technique for silicone oil removal at the time of phacoemulsification combined with standard or toric intraocular lens implantation using the phacoemulsification handpiece in irrigation/aspiration mode. No additional corneal or scleral incisions are needed, and no specialized vitreoretinal instrumentation is required.
