Abstract
The technique, feasibility, and results of a new 25-gauge trocar-anterior chamber maintainer (ACM) designed for maintaining intraoperative fluid infusion is described in this prospective interventional analysis. The 25-gauge trocar-ACM with an overall length of the trocar blade of 6.0Â mm, cannula length of 4.0Â mm, and the cannula tip beveled at 45 degrees to the base was designed and used in all the cases. The dimensions of the sclerotomy wound that comprised of the internal ostium, external ostium, wound length, and the time interval for wound apposition in the postoperative period was analyzed by spectral-domain anterior segment optical coherence tomography.
