Hello,

Found this article in Times of India today.

Kindly click the link below..and wanted to know ur opinion,dear Eye

surgeons..out here,what surgery has been done,on this patient??

Meaning,I am not sure...with the use of Iris of Biosynthetic material glued to

cornea..,much OPTICAL Indication.. .for such an surgery..could be there...,as

then how does one explain..the flow of Aqueous Humour Dynamics..in the Angle..

If,done for Cosmetic purpose..or to Maintain the anatomical contour(Tectonic)

of the growing orbit,then it is indeed a better surgery, than Evisceration. .and

then use of Prosthetic Eye..

..

On,that note,I find,Dr.Aggarwal and his team,@Chennai, very innovative.. with

their surgical approaches..

THE CHOP-STICK,techniqu e of placing an foldable IOL..in the sulcus,in a big

PCapsular rent..is one very nice technique..which is very encouraging. ,taught

in many medical schools round the world and in Hands-on-Wet labs..in many

conferences.

Hope,someday soon,I am able..to master..the technique..without dropping the

IOL..in Vitreous cavity...!!

For other non-ophthalmology readers,this article..and discussion.. was to

Highlight... AANKH WALE Doctors..aajkal. .kya..kya kaam kar rahein..hain. .

From an 8-10mm..opening. .to remove cataracts..2 decades..ago. .to then moving

on to 5-6mm...for ECCE..,now we have 1-2mm...as the norm,for removal of

cataracts..and that too under TOPICAL Anaesthesias. ..,...and 3mm..spells.

..trouble these days!!

Certainly..all looks..well, , a Small Incision, by the surgeons..and an BIG

LEAP..for better Visual Future...for everyone..

Bye.
