Anterior chamber maintainer (A.C. maintainer) is a very useful device in small incision cataract surgery like phacoemulsification and non-phaco small incision Bluementhal technique, since chamber collapse accounts for a large number of complications during these surgical procedures. The A.C. maintainer is connected to a separate saline bottle and the tip is inserted into the anterior chamber through the side port incision. In case there is any surge or the chamber becomes shallow, the saline from the bottle automatically fills the anterior chamber avoiding posterior capsule rupture or other surge related complication
