ABSTRACT:
A method of sealing the corneal incision resulting from cataract surgery is presented. The edges of the incision are maneuvered under a keratoscope until an undistorted corneal surface is obtained. Biological glue is then applied to the maneuvered incision. The seal provides for greatly reduced postoperative astigmatism.
