Sir,

I read with interest the paper published by Żarnowski et al,1 describing the importance of treating the zonular/capsule and anterior hyaloid face as well as a limited vitrectomy. This is probably the largest study by patient numbers, but is not the first to describe this technique. We describe this technique and include schematic diagrams of the technique in a 2012 paper.2 We also described how to handle the rare case of Sommering’s ring-induced ciliary block.
