Abstract

CATARACT SURGERY IS NOW CONSIDERED AS PRECISE AS REFRACTIVE SURGERY. HOWEVER HOW TO APPROACH A PATIENT WHO HAS VERY LONG OR SHORT EYE, OR WHO HAS UNDERGONE PREVIOUS OPHTHALMIC PROCEDURE? CATARACT PATIENTS WHO HAVE UNDERGONE REFRACTIVE SURGERIES IN EARLY ADULT LIFE HAVE HIGH EXPECTATIONS FOR A PERFECT VISION. SO HAVING AN ACCURATE INTRO-OCULAR LENS MEASUREMENT IS CRUCIAL. PAEDIATRIC CATARACT PATIENTS ALSO REQUIRE PRECISE IOL MEASUREMENT TO PREVENT AMBLYOPIA. PATIENTS HAVING CATARACT WITH CORNEAL CONDITIONS LIKE KERATOCONUS OR POST-KERATOPLASTY EYES POSE A HUGE CHALLENGE FOR THE SURGEON BOTH IN TERMS OF SURGICAL SKILL AND IOL POWER. PATIENTS WHO HAVE UNDERGONE PRIOR RETINA SURGERIES POSE UNIQUE PROBLEMS AND OPERATING CATARACT ON SUCH PATIENTS IS A CHALLENGE. OUR INSTRUCTION COURSE WILL INTRODUCE YOU TO THE NEW GENERATION IOL FORMULAE WHICH WILL HELP IN ACCURATE AND PRECISE LENS POWER MEASUREMENTS. THIS WILL HELP YOU FURTHER IMPROVE YOUR PRACTICE AND INCREASE YOUR PATIENT SATISFACTION.
