Atlas and epitome of operative ophthalmology . 252 OPERATIONS ON THE EYE. with a single suture (Fig. 98, 6) and drawing it halfwaythrough, so that the needle is at the center of the ends of the suture are then again provided withneedles. After the middle suture has been introducedthrough the tendon and the conjunctiva from the scleralside, the needle is cut away so that, instead of Webersloop, there are left two free ends emerging from the ten-don and conjunctiva. These two ends are then tied withthe other ends of the suture, which have been passedthrough the conjunctiva, above and below the cornea, inthe same way as in Webers operation. The operatormust be careful to make equal traction on the two sutures,otherwise the muscle will be displaced upward or down-ward. 4. I^andolts advancement resembles de Weckersin so far as a suture is passed through the tendon from infront, above and below the cornea; but each suture isintroduced separately (Fig. 99).
