We introduce a technique of hydrodissection that reduces capsular bag distension and thus lowers the risk of capsular block syndrome. In 100 consecutive cases in which this method was used for cataract surgery, no complications occurred. Postoperative best corrected visual acuity was better than 20/40 in 96% of patients.
