Dr. Robert Osher presents a 4-quadrant siepser knot technique with multiple weaving, a useful technique in cases in which pharmacologic agents cannot be used for pupil constriction. Although challenging and time-consuming, the weaving technique avoids late erosion of the Prolene suture, which can occur when using only 1 knot per quadrant.
