Cortical aspiration - The "POPS" technique.

In the present study, we describe a step-by-step technique for cortex aspiration during cataract surgery- POPS (positioning, occlusion, posterior displacement, and swiping). Firstly, the aspiration probe is positioned under the bulk of cortical fibers beyond the capsulorhexis margin. Subsequently, the aspiration port is occluded with minimal vacuum, and the occluded port is displaced posteriorly to detach the cortical fibers off the anterior capsule.

Subtle signs of an intact anterior vitreous face during pediatric cataract surgery.

We describe the subtle signs of the anterior vitreous face as a bulging structure, a homogenous staining pattern of 3 buttonholes, and a lamellar or fibrillar pattern intact. This should help surgeons correctly recognize the intact anterior vitreous face.

Real-time intraoperative high-speed imaging during phacoemulsification.

We describe the use of high-speed imaging during phacoemulsification in a clinical scenario. Images captured during surgery at high frame rates are converted into a slow-motion film to view and analyze various surgical steps. This technique highlights events that are not captured in a normal-speed video recording.

Approaches to a posterior polar cataract.

Posterior polar cataracts present special challenges to the cataract surgeon. These are often associated with weakness/dehiscence of the posterior capsule and thus have a higher rate of intraoperative posterior capsule rupture. The surgeon needs to adhere to special surgical strategies to minimize the risk of a posterior capsule rupture.

Design: Prospective observational case series.

Pars plicata posterior continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis.

We describe a technique of pars plicata manual posterior capsulorhexis performed after implantation of an intraocular lens (IOL) in pediatric cataract surgery. The technique can be used to create a posterior capsulectomy of a desirable size in a controlled manner to avoid destabilization of the IOL. It can be applied selectively in cases of pediatric cataract surgery.

Posterior capsule management in congenital cataract surgery.

Unlabelled: Management of the posterior capsule significantly affects the outcome of pediatric cataract surgery. Posterior capsule opacification (PCO) is rapid and virtually inevitable in very young children when adult-style cataract surgery is performed and the posterior capsule is left intact. In eyes with pediatric cataract, primary posterior capsulotomy and vitrectomy are considered routine surgical steps, especially in younger children.
