摘　　要：Dear Editor,The application of three-dimensional (3D) printing techniques in ophthalmology enables cost-effective design and production of custom medical instruments.Complications of cataract surgery,such as a dropped nucleus,cortex,or intraocular lens,may require vitreoretinal surgery.Although there is a vitrectomy port in most phacoemulsification machines,endoillumination is not available.There are some external light source devices such as Photon (Synergetics),XenotronⅢ(Geuder) and Bright Star (DORC),but they are expensive and may not be available in all hospitals.This study was approved by the Institutional Review Board of Joint Shantou International Eye Center.
