Wound construction is one of the most important and prerequisite aspects of successful cataract surgery. Properly constructed wounds not only create surgical access to the intraocular space but also contribute to safer surgeries, faster postoperative recovery, and improved refractive outcomes (Hausheer JR, editor. Basic techniques of ophthalmic surgery. 3rd ed. American Academy of Ophthalmology; 2019). Improperly constructed wounds, by contrast, may restrict use of surgical instrumentation, introduce undesired astigmatism, or heal poorly. Most cataract surgeons choose to use clear corneal incisions for routine phacoemulsification cataract cases, which are small and usually self-seal without any sutures (Monica and Long, Ophthalmology 112(6):985–986, 2005). The incision can be performed with multiple interlocking planes that augment the seal of the wound, and incision placement may be tailored for refractive outcomes.
