Summary

Phaco emulsification is the most common technique used in cataract removal surgery. It requires dispersal of the content of the cataract by breaking it down using ultrasound and then sucking out the matter, leaving the clear lens capsule in place. ?Phaco Without The Phaco? describes the latest cataract removal techniques which extract the whole lens, and the techniques for subsequent replacement lens insertion. It explores a number of techniques all aimed at the same objective ? to safely remove the whole contents of the lens through the smallest possible incision ? without requiring any machine other than the surgeon?s brain, hands and simple instruments. This volume contains contributions from the biggest names worldwide in eye surgery, and to quote Dr David McIntyre ?This is the book that has begged to be produced! More than any other, this volume should be required reading for ophthalmic surgeons.?Contents: Section 1: History of Cataract Surgery * Surgical Anatomy of the Human Lens * Sterilization * Preparation for Cataract Surgery * Corneal Topography in Cataract Surgery * IOLs and Biometric Calculations * Evolution of Modern Cataract-Intraocular Lens Surgery * Intraocular Lens Power Calculation * Anaesthesia * Viscoelastics * Corneal Incision in Modern Cataract Surgery * Capsulorhexis * Hydromaneuvers * Compartmentalization/Decompartmentalization Concept in Relation to Cataract Surgery * Postoperative Endophthalmitis: Prevention and Treatment.Section 2: Performing a Flawless Planned Extracapsular Cataract Extraction * Scleral Tunnel Incisions and Small Incision Phacofracture * Small Incision Planned Extra * Phaco Sandwich Technique * Phacosection: Modern Small Incision No Stitch ECCE * Phakosection * Phacofracture Small Incision Surgery * Manual Multiphacofragmentation Technique * The Khouri Manual Phacofragmentation * Mini-Nuc Technique * Manual Small-Incision ECCE with Nylon-Loop Phakosection an Foldable IOL Implanatation * Chopper, Spatula and Small Incision Cataract Surgery * Quarters Extraction Technique: An Alternative Approach to Phacoemulsification * Prechop Manual Phacofragmentation * Slider Pincer Technique for Small Incision Cataract Surgery * Manual Small Incision Cataract Surgery: Complications and their Management.
