A. Two paracentesis are made on both corneal limbus perpendicular to iris defect. B. A 27-gauge blunt bend cannula is introduced from distal centesis to proximal one. C. The tip docked into the lumen of cannula and moved into anterior chamber. D. The tip unreeved from the barrel when it goes into the anterior chamber again, once passes through the iris, tip pulled out from the distal paracentesis but tail remains in anterior chamber. E. Wraps the thread for two throw around the suture near the tail outside the proximalcentesis, slides the loops on iris. F. It pulls two ends of suture and tie knot in the opposite directions equally and synchronously and cut the suture 0.5 mm away from the knot
