EXTREME Patient Movement During Cataract Surgery. ADAPT AND OVERCOME. Shannon Wong, MD.

A common question concern from patients undergoing eye surgery is “What if I move during surgery?” Well, everyone moves during surgery. What do we normally do to compensate for patient movement? 1 We give generous amounts of anesthetic on the eye and inside the eye to make our patients comfortable. 2 Patients receive a valium tablet that helps them relax. 3 We ask our patients to look directly at the light in front of them to help them fixate on a target. 4 I rest my hands on the patient’s head so when they move, my hands move in sync with their head 5 And finally our surgical instruments help mitigate eye movement during surgery. In this procedure we demonstrate the following surgical techniques: 1 one handed phacoemulsification 2 suture fixation of the eye/globe during cataract surgery 3 Inamura pre chopper 4 viscodilation of the pupil for irrigation and aspiration.
