    This video demonstrates techniques and tips of capsular management, including IOL optic capture. The tips and emerging tools toward capsular management include

    • Microincision capsulorrhexis forceps for anterior and posterior capsules
    • Kloti radio-frequency diathermy capsulotomy for white or scarred capsules
    • Zepto precision-pulse capsulotomy in children: nitinol ring for shape precision
    • Femtosecond laser anterior and posterior capsulotomy: Logistics and cost are problems for pediatric hospitals.
