Abstract

‘Dropless Cataract Surgery’ is an evolution to avoid traditional multi drug post-operative regime. Non compliance is the major concern with this traditional practice over and above ocular surface toxicity to the medications. Intravitreal deposition of Triamcinolone Acetonide(TCA) along with Moxifloxacin is the most favoured combination and transzonular route is the most commonly used way to accomplish Dropless Cataract Surgery.

However, transzonular technique is difficult to learn and is risky as observed in publications.

We adopted pars plans route to deposit the TCA, Moxifloxacin combination to perform Dropless Cataract Surgery. We demonstrate here the procedure and the outcome in 52 cases.
