Pseudoexfoliation
Dr. Sajjad Hamid Fazili
Eyes with (XFS )Pseudoexfoliation frequently have glaucoma and several other characteristics that impactsurgery , such as poor pupillary dilatation, zonular weakness, shallow anterior chamber etc ., therefore it isnot surprising that the prevalence of intraoperative complications is significantly higher than in routine cata-ract surgery. Cataract surgery in XFS presents challenges that require careful preoperative planning andintraoperative care to ensure successful and safe surgery. The use of specialized adjunctive devices such ashighly cohesive viscoelastics, pupillary expansion devices and capsular tension devices has increased themargin of safety in these potentially complex cataract surgeries. Pseudoexfoliation with coexistent glaucomaand cataract needs a combined approach. Cataract surgery at an earlier stage seems to be safe.
