- Two radial incisions are placed with a RK knife. Each incision is situated 2.75 mm behind the surgical limbus and is approximately 900 microns wide. The two incisions are separated by 4.0 mm.
- A diamond knife is then used to dissect between the two radial incisions to create an intrascleral tunnel.
- Using a needle holder a scleral expansion segment is placed into the tunnel starting at the exit wound of the diamond knife and proceeding towards the entrance wound of the diamond knife.
- Completed placement of intrascleral expansion segment.
