Synopsis

This volume is based on developments in cataract surgery, highlighting the blue line incision technique which combines the safety of the scleral tunnel incision with the efficiency of a clear corneal incision. The second part of the book focuses on the increasing trend and ability of surgeons to obtain refractive results with lens-related surgeries. The book also includes a special technique of performing astigmatism corrections at the slit-lamp and the techniques for intraocular lens exchange through the same incision without sutures.
