Horizontal chopping is effective for endocapsular nucleofractis. We describe pop and chop, a variant of chopping that enables an easy first crack and initial segment removal. It involves partial extracapsular prolapse of the nucleus prior to the initial chop. It is particularly useful when hydrodissection results in partial prolapse of the lens nucleus so that it is wedged into the anterior capsule opening. It is also helpful when beginning surgeons are learning phaco chop.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 7. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 10 November 2015.
All research outputs
#5,405,738
of 27,780,120 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Cataract & Refractive Surgery
#398
of 3,429 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#11,369
of 64,081 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Cataract & Refractive Surgery
#3
of 20 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 27,780,120 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 79th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,429 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.8. This one has done well, scoring higher than 84% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 64,081 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 81% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 20 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 80% of its contemporaries.
