Previous mechanized methods of assessing CCC strength used excised anterior capsules or partially phacoemulsified crystalline lenses, yielding lower tension strength values. This force-displacement method may facilitate assessment of small differences between anterior capsulotomy techniques.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
