The authors describe a technique for placing and tying interrupted iris sutures in virtually any area of the iris using only a single limbal paracentesis wound. The tying is performed with conventional knot-forming techniques outside the eye before the throws are pulled into the anterior chamber and tightened with the desired 180 degrees tension on the suture ends. During suture tying, the iris stays in situ rather than being stretched and distorted.
