Book Description
The IOL technical specifications, the clinical data, and the necessary clinical and surgical skills comprise the scientific foundation for achieving a "premium" refractive outcome. To consistently achieve patient satisfaction, however, requires mastering the art of patient and IOL selection, communicating and counseling effectively, and providing a "premium" patient experience. This is a nontraditional book in which multiple experts are separately asked to discuss controversial subjects in a reader-friendly format. There is balanced coverage of all of the available refractive IOLs, as well as those that may become available in the near future. A major emphasis is placed on avoiding and managing complications or potentially dissatisfied patients. There are more than 200 chapters that are organized into 14 major sections, over 300 images, 100 tables, and 12 sidebars that cover every aspect of refractive IOL clinical practice. This is a comprehensive educational resource addressing the most demanding and rapidly evolving area in cataract and refractive surgery today and the first book to cover both the clinical and nonclinical aspects of offering refractive IOL services.

Phacoemulsification and Intraocular Lens Implantation
Author: William J. Fishkind
Publisher: Thieme
ISBN: 1638531382
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 1232
Book Description
Renowned master surgeons share best practices for effectively performing cataract surgery and avoiding complications Phacoemulsification, the gold standard for cataract extraction, is highly successful. However, the procedure is not without risks and complications. Poor visual outcome, retinal detachment, infection, diplopia, and cornea and iris problems may pose considerable challenges. Additional potential problems arise from implanting the intraocular lens (IOL). Edited by a renowned master surgeon and educator in the field, and authored by a remarkable cast of cataract experts, this is the definitive text on managing cataract surgery, with practical guidance on recognizing and managing complications, should they arise. Experts demonstrate the right way to perform phacoemulsification and diverse surgical and intraocular lens implantation procedures in order to reduce risk and improve patient outcome. This second edition is greatly expanded in size and scope to accommodate the latest state-of-the-art methodologies and refinements in surgical strategies. Since the first edition was published, new techniques for refractive cataract surgery, vitrectomy, IOL exchange, and management of IOL implantation without capsular bag support have been improved. Additionally, new technologies have been introduced such as optical coherence tomography, FLACS (femtosecond laser surgery), and implantation of toric and multifocal refractive IOLs, as well as methods to improve IOL power calculation and decision making. Highlights A stellar group of national and internationally renowned eye surgeons provide invaluable clinical pearls gleaned from years of refining procedures Surgical videos further elucidate the most optimal surgical strategies More than 600 superb illustrations Management of challenges including small pupils, IFIS, zonular weakness, inadequate capsular support, vitrectomy, corneal burns, high astigmatism, dysphotopsias, and endophthalmitis This invaluable reference will help ophthalmologists refine their expertise, resulting in fewer risks and more efficacious outcomes. It is a must-have resource for ophthalmology residents and proficient surgeons alike.

Recent Advances in Ophthalmology - 10
Author: HV Nema
Publisher: JP Medical Ltd
ISBN: 9350252635
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 400
Book Description
The tenth volume of Recent Advances in Ophthalmology contains some selected chapters on cornea, uvea, secondary glaucoma, lens, retina, oculoplastic surgery, and neuro-ophthalmic disorders. First time in the serial publication, three editorials—artificial cornea, diabetic retinopathy, and endophthalmitis are included to provide an over view of the problem to the reader. Recent advances in ophthalmology have considerably improved the quality of medical and surgical management of the patients with eye diseases. Besides editorial on artificial cornea, five articles are included on cornea. Sinha and coauthors have described corneal dystrophies in great detail covering prevalence, international classification, inheritance, histopathology, clinical features and treatment. Hopefully, the postgraduate students in ophthalmology and general ophthalmic practitioners will find the present volume helpful not only in the basic understanding of new developments in the subject but also in day-to-day clinical practice and care of the patients.
