Current Concepts in Refractive Surgery
Refractive surgery is eye surgery to improve the refractive state of the eye and reduce or eliminate the need for glasses or contact lenses. The most common type of refractive surgery uses lasers to reshape the curvature of the cornea. This book is a practical guide to the latest advances in refractive surgery procedures. Beginning with an introduction to the evolution of refractive surgery, the next section discusses pre-operative workup, patient evaluation, and decision making. The following sections cover different refractive procedures including corneal ablative, refractive lenticule extraction, lens-based surgeries, enhancements and retreatments, and presbyopia (a condition associated w...
Diagnostic Procedures in Ophthalmology
New edition presenting latest developments in ophthalmic diagnostic procedures. Fully revised and many new chapters. Previous edition published in 2009.
Small Incision Lenticule Extraction (SMILE): Surgical Technique and Challenges
Small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) is a relatively new refractive procedure designed to treat a multitude of refractive errors such as myopia, hyperopia, presbyopia, and astigmatism. The procedure involves using a femtosecond laser to create a corneal lenticule which is extracted whole through a small incision without the use of a traditional excrimer laser. It is a painless procedure and is reported to achieve excellent post-operative outcomes (American Academy of Ophthalmology). This book is a complete guide to the new technique of SMILE surgery providing refractive surgeons with an overview of surgical procedure, refractive and physiological outcomes, complications and their mana...
Ophthalmology Clinics for Postgraduates

Cataract Surgery in Diseased Eyes
Cataracts are a very common condition and over time can lead to blindness if untreated. They are the most common cause of blindness worldwide. Cataract surgery is one of the most commonly performed procedures. Cataract Surgery in Diseased Eyes presents different surgical techniques to remove cataracts in patients with other pre-existing ocular disorders. Presented as case scenarios, the book covers numerous different conditions including dry eye, uveitis and glaucoma, as well as cataract surgery after other types of eye surgery. With contributions from internationally recognised specialists in Europe, North America and Asia, this useful guide includes more than 200 images, illustrations and tables to enhance learning. Key points Describes cataract surgery techniques for use with other pre-existing eye conditions Presents more than 30 case scenarios covering different disorders Contributions from experts in Europe, North America and Asia Includes more than 200 images, illustrations and tables
Step by Step LASIK Surgery
A decade after the introduction of the LASIK technique in refractive surgery, the technique has reached its maturity. Thoroughly researched and easy to read, Step by Step LASIK Surgery provides practical information regarding the various aspects of LASIK surgery. Expert LASIK surgeons share their experiences with this state-of-the-art surgical technique. The book is organized in a simple and effective style that presents a step-by-step approach to LASIK surgery. It includes information about the latest microkertomes and excimer laser machines and specific surgical techniques like LASEK, LASIK for post-penetrating keratoplasty, ametropias, and wavefront guided LASIK.
Corneal Transplantation
The cornea is the clear, outer layer at the front of the eyeball. It acts as a window to the eye. The cornea helps to focus light rays onto the retina, this image is then transmitted to the brain. When the cornea is damaged, it can become less transparent or its shape can change. This can prevent light reaching the retina and causes the picture transmitted to the brain to be distorted or unclear. A corneal transplant, also known as keratoplasty or a corneal graft, is an operation to remove all or part of a damaged cornea and replace it with healthy donor tissue. It is used to improve sight, relieve pain and treat severe infection or damage. One of the most common reasons for a cornea transpl...
GLUED IOL
Implanting an intraocular lens (IOL) in a patient without adequate support for a posterior chamber (behind the iris of the lens) IOL is a complex procedure for ophthalmic surgeons. In the past, if an anterior chamber IOL was not possible, the only surgical option was suturing a posterior IOL. This book discusses the new technique of ‘glued intrascleral haptic fixation of a posterior chamber IOL’ (Glued IOL). Beginning with an introduction, the following chapters describe different surgical processes for glued IOL, for both common and less common conditions. The final section examines complications and imaging, and compares the techniques and results of glued IOLs and sutured IOLs. With c...
