The densely adherent anterior capsular rim over the intraocular lens (IOL) optic was released with the help of microvitreoretinal blade, and multiple relaxing radial incisions were made on the capsular rim to facilitate easy access to the capsular bag. A thorough capsular bag lavage was performed with the help of bimanual irrigation-aspiration. Posterior continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis (PCCC) was performed after complete aspiration of fluid after-cataract to prevent recurrence. This technique was successfully performed in 14 cases. Postoperatively, IOL was stable and an uncorrected distance visual acuity of >20/32 was achieved in all cases. No recurrence was observed in any case over a follow-up of 1 year. Our technique of capsular bag lavage with PCCC is safe and effective for the management of LAC with optimal visual and anatomical outcomes.
