Tackling refractive surprise post cataract surgery – A surgeon’s nightmare
Journal Title: Medpulse International Journal of Ophthalmology - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
Cataract surgery is the most common surgery performed by ophthalmologists. The goal of surgery has shifted from restoring vision to providing a spectacle free vision. Refractive surprise post cataract surgery is one of the most frustrating event. In this article, we describe the measures to deal with refractive surprise post cataract surgery. The choice of treatment varies from non invasive modalities like spectacles to invasive procedures like IOL exchange, Laser vision correction etc.
