In one phacolytic glaucoma case that Pannet Pangputh- ipong, MD , presented, there was cortical material inside the anterior chamber that he had to remove.

It’s also useful to widen the incision on the inside because when you focus on the nucleus and try to phaco and chop, we are moving instruments forwards and backwards, which increases the chance for tear.” In one case performed by Abhay Vasavada, MD , an open- ing was made in the posterior capsule which was made big enough to accommodate the i˜Ã œ«ÌˆV° º7…i˜ ̅i «œÃÌiÀˆœÀ V>«ÃՏi ˆÃ ̜À˜]»…i Ã>ˆ`] ºÞœÕ must check in the end—is the vitreous phase disrupted and in the chamber? Always inject triamcinolone preservative-free to check and make sure there is no vitreous coming out.” Performing traumatic cat- aract surgery requires a clear strategy that adheres to the closed chamber technique. For Hisaharu Suzuki, MD , there are many complications in cataract surgery in the elderly ˆ˜VÕ`ˆ˜} Üi>Ž ✘Տ>À wLiÀÃ] corneal endothelial loss, myso- sis, and glaucoma. Again, Dr. Suzuki emphasized that preoper- ative preparation and a surgical «>˜ ˆÃ ˆ“«œÀÌ>˜Ì° º/ܜ v>V̜Àà should be considered in the sur- gical plan: the instruments and the phaco machine settings,” he said. For congenital cataract surgery, many problems arise which affect visual development with numerous complications, said Yun-e Zhao, MD . Posteri- or capsule abnormality makes «ÀœVi`ÕÀià `ˆvwVՏÌ] iëiVˆ>Þ ˆ˜ PCD and PFV cases. Her take- home points emphasized that lensectomy and vitrectomy can be performed to avoid cortex sinking in PCD cases and hemor- rhage in PFV cases. Corneal opacities pose another issue for posterior seg- ment surgeons. These opacities occur due to the light from the microscope being unable to enter the eye because of scatter- ing, resulting in poor red glow. By thinking outside the box, Mahipal Sachdev, MD , offered the chandelier illumination technique in which coaxial light shines onto the retina of the patient’s eye and illuminates it, «ÀœÛˆ`ˆ˜} ̅>Ì Ài` }œÜ° º/…i˜] you can do the surgery as if there is no corneal opacity,” said Dr. Sachdev. For Pichit Naripthaphan, MD , posterior capsule tears can be rescued with careful evalua- tion, maintaining A/C pressure, and making the posterior cap- sule opening round and strong. With IOL implantation, in-the- bag technique may be possible for certain cases. Finally, Morgagnian cat- aract surgery is challenging because the cataract should be removed as soon as possible, but surgeons hesitate because the procedure demands a high degree of skill and considerable experience, said Kiyoshi Ishii, MD . It can be done, though, and ºÃœÜ >˜` ÃÌi>`Þ Üˆ˜Ã ̅i À>Vi]» said Dr. Ishii. Challenges in cataract surgery will always present, but
