“…The primary reason that motivated us to study this technique, was based on the fact that it demonstrates, in principle, respect for the anatomical details of the lens, allowing preparation of a fragment in a "V", whose fragmentation and aspiration is facilitated. Furthermore, cataracts in dogs present cataractous nuclei with variable degrees of hardness (Slatter, 2005;Munger, 2009), which are not always removable using the "Divide and conquer" technique, faced with trans-surgical complications, such as difficulty with nucleus rotation to perform the second fracture (Akahoshi, 1998;Slatter, 2005;Warren, 2004). Furthermore, due to the technical impossibility, irregular fragments can be created which are free in the anterior chamber, increasing the difficulty in performing emulsification and aspiration and thus the degree of endothelial injury and intraocular inflammation (Munger, 2009;Padua et al, 2017).…”
