Visualization of Berger's space in the living eye
Abstract
The presence of the capsulo-hyaloidal interspace (Berger's space) can be demonstrated in the living human eye when this space is filled with Healon during extracapsular lens surgery combined with primary capsulotomy. This facilitates discission and excision procedures of the posterior capsule and protects the anterior vitreous face from injury.
