Abstract
CATARACT CONTINUES TO BE THE LEADING CAUSE OF TREATABLE BLINDNESS GLOBALLY. THE IDEAL SURGERY WOULD BE ONE IN WHICH THERE IS NO RISK OF COMPLICATIONS, WITH PERFECT UNAIDED VISION POSTOPERATIVELY, WITH MINIMAL COST. PHACOEMULSIFICATION AND SICS ARE THE 2 LEADING SURGERIES FOR CATARACT EXTRACTION. IN INDIA, A SIGNIFICANT PROPORTION OF THE POPULATION PRESENTS WITH ADVANCED/ WHITE/ HARD CATARACT AND AFFORDABILITY IS AN IMPORTANT FACTOR FOR THESE PATIENTS. SICS DOES NOT REQUIRE EXPENSIVE EQUIPMENT/ MACHINES, WHICH NEED EXPENSIVE MAINTENANCE. SICS HAS A RELATIVELY SHORTER LEARNING CURVE AND IS SUITABLE FOR ANY TYPE OF CATARACT, WITH ANY INTRAOCULAR LENS. MINIMIZING SURGICALLY INDUCED ASTIGMATISM IS THE NEED OF THE HOUR AS PATIENTS REQUIRE GOOD UNAIDED POSTOPERATIVE VISION. IN A STUDY DONE IN OUR INSTITUTE, THE CHEVRON INCISION LED TO MINIMAL ASTIGMATISM, COMPARABLE WITH PHACOEMULSIFICATION. IN THIS COURSE, WE WILL FOCUS ON THE TECHNIQUES REQUIRED TO ACHIEVE THE BEST POSTOPERATIVE RESULTS.
