The McCannel suturing technique for repairing iris lacerations is just one of many surgical techniques that can be practiced on the SimulEYE Iris Suturing & IOL Fixation (ISIF) model. After passing the suture through the cornea and under the iris, the needle is externalized through the cornea. A common paracentesis is placed adjacent to the iris defect through which the ends are externalized. The knot is tied and cinched down externally before trimming the suture ends.
