Evidence supports cataract surgery for IOP control in exfoliation syndrome
June 15th 2015Cataract surgery lowers IOP in eyes with exfoliation syndrome (XFS) or exfoliation glaucoma (XFG), and it might even change the natural history of glaucoma in eyes with XFS. However, it may also be appropriate to combine phacoemulsification with glaucoma surgery in certain patients with XFG.

Time to update the endocapsular device toolbox
May 19th 2015Cataract surgeons have several tools to help them manage the challenges presented by cases with zonular pathology. However, consideration should be given to the Malyugin modified capsular tension ring (Morcher GmbH), according to Botis Malyugin, MD, PhD.

CLE with latest generation of advanced multifocal implants
May 1st 2015The number of presbyopia correcting options has increased along with the size of the presbyopic market. Clear lens exchange (CLE) is becoming a popular option as a result of the latest generation of intraocular lenses that have been shown to offer spectacle independence to a high proportion of patients. In this article, Mr Chitkara presents the 1-year results of his small study evaluating CLE with implantation of the Diffractiva-aA lens.

Combined trabeculectomy-cyclodialysis for glaucoma
May 1st 2015The aim of modern glaucoma surgery is to reduce IOP by creating a drainage pathway for aqueous fluid. Trabeculectomy surgery has been modified over the years to prevent certain complications, however some still occur. In this article, the authors present a combined method of trabeculectomy with cyclodialysis as a potential option for glaucoma surgeons.

Femtosecond laser technology helps achieve ‘napkin’ capsulotomy
May 1st 2015When a capsulotomy is completely separated from the anterior capsule, or free floating, surgeons can simply grasp the capsule and lift it from the eye-literally as easy as lifting a napkin up from a table-thus the “napkin” capsulotomy.

New treatment reduces corneal oedema after cataract surgery
May 1st 2015Occasionally, post-cataract surgery endothelial cells don’t function well enough to keep the cornea clear, which can commonly cause corneal oedema. Here, Prof. Feinbaum describes a new treatment modality that has been designed to reduce and in most cases stop the oedema in 24–48 hours.

Dysfunctional lens syndrome paradox
April 11th 2015In his latest blog, Mark Packer, MD, FACS, CPI, defends why doctors should not allow the restrictions of third party payers on reimbursement for cataract surgery to drive your diagnosis or your recommendations for treatment, as diagnosis and treatment must remain the surgeon’s sole responsibility if our profession is to retain any of its natural inherent authority.
