    Although off-label use of Gore-Tex avoids late suture breakages during capsular tension ring (CTR) fixation, the suture can be difficult to maneuver. In this video, Dr. Michael Synder presents the Hater suture technique, a simplified suture technique to fixate a capsular tension ring. The method was first described by Dr. Michael Hater at the Cincinnati Eye Institute.
