We describe a modified closed-chamber capsulorhexis technique that facilitates cataract extraction and intraocular lens insertion combined with penetrating keratoplasty. This technique eliminates most of the risks associated with can-opener capsulotomies, offers the benefits of capsulorhexis, and enhances the safety of the triple procedure.
