Dr.Minu M Mathen [M08325] – Thiruvananthapuram
This video based course will highlight the difficulties during phacoemulsification of difficult cataracts including
posterior polar, soft, hard and mature cataracts, subluxations, small pupils, shallow anterior chambers, IFIS,
Compromised endothelium, high myopes, traumatic cataracts and post vitrectomised eyes. The modifications
in techniques involved in managing the above situations will be described. The use of newer phacoemusification
machines and well as the changes to be made in the parameters of standard phaco machines will also be
detailed including microincision phaco and torsional technology to deal with the above situations. The use of
capsule staining techniques, Capsular bag stabilization devices and customized chopping instruments will be
demonstrated.
