Abstract

We describe the management of a large iridodialysis repair using the modified sewing machine technique and lens aspiration in a single setting in an eye with blunt ocular injury. We performed the lens aspiration first followed by iridodialysis repair. The technique was easy and fast, with good postoperative anatomical outcome.
