Siepser Suture Iris Reconstruction

Thomas A. Oetting, MS, MD

This video illustrates the technique for repair of a simple defect in the iris using the Siepser sliding knot. This technique extends the basic technique of a retrievable suture from McCannel and can be used for iris fixation to the IOL as well as reconstruction.
