Il faut [...] réaliser une implantation [...] en n'utilisant [...] que des implants de courte longueur de 12 ou 13 mm.

Pour certains opérateurs, lorsqu'il existe une pseudo-exfoliation capsulaire marquée, la fixation dans le sulcus évite les complications liées à la fragilité de la zonule. Cette fragilité se situe à son origine au niveau du corps ciliaire et non à la jonction avec la capsule. 1, record 5, French, - dialyse%20zonulaire
