"Chopper Shield" Technique to Protect Corneal Endothelium During Phacoemulsification Surgery for Rock Hard Cataracts.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a chopper as a shield to prevent mechanical corneal endothelial trauma that can occur during the phacoemulsification of brunescent cataracts.

Effect of simulated lenticular debris on corneal endothelial cells: experimental study in rabbit eyes
Samuel W. Wilkinson,S. Park,Emilie L Ungricht,Michael Trapnell,Jacob Nydegger,Ida Cardenas,Ben J Brintz,Nick Mamalis,Randall J. Olson,Liliana Werner +9 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that lenticular debris swirling around the anterior chamber may cause significant damage to the corneal endothelium, providing further insight on mechanisms of damage during phacoemulsification.

Adjusted femtosecond laser capsulotomy distance in white cataracts to decrease incomplete capsulotomy: a randomized comparative cohort study
TL;DR: Comparing safety and effectiveness between standard position and adjusted distance pre- and post-anterior capsule of femtosecond laser capsulotomy in white cataracts surgery shows that Appropriate adjustment on femtOSEcond laser Capsulotomy distance by reducing pre- anterior capsule and increasing post-Anterior distance, may decrease incomplete capsulotom and be more effective inwhite cataract surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficacy of wet-lab training versus surgical-simulator training on performance of ophthalmology residents during chopping in cataract surgery.
TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors analyzed whether wet-lab training (WLT) or surgical-simulator training (SST) is better for ophthalmology residents to master the chopping technique.

Corneal endothelium protection provided by ophthalmic viscosurgical devices during phacoemulsification: experimental study in rabbit eyes
S. Park,Samuel W. Wilkinson,Emilie L Ungricht,Michael Trapnell,Jacob Nydegger,Ben J Brintz,Nick Mamalis,Randall J. Olson,Liliana Werner +8 more
TL;DR: A study using live rabbits with analysis of stained excised corneas showed dispersive OVD provides significantly more corneal endothelial cell protection from simulated lenticular debris than cohesive OVD during phacoemulsification as mentioned in this paper .

The Lens Opacities Classification System III
Leo T. Chylack,John K. Wolfe,D.M. Singer,M. C. Leske,Mark A. Bullimore,Ian Bailey,Judith Friend,D. Mccarthy,Suh Yuh Wu +8 more
TL;DR: The LOCS III is an improved LOCS system for grading slit-lamp and retroillumination images of age-related cataract and contains an expanded set of standards that were selected from the Longitudinal Study of Cataract slide library.
Journal ArticleDOI
Torsional mode versus conventional ultrasound mode phacoemulsification: Randomized comparative clinical study
TL;DR: The torsional mode may provide more effective lens removal with a lower level of phacoemulsification time and energy.

Intensive diabetes therapy and ocular surgery in type 1 diabetes.
Lloyd Paul Aiello,Wanjie Sun,Arup Das,Sapna Gangaputra,Szilard Kiss,Ronald Klein,Patricia A. Cleary,John M. Lachin,David M. Nathan +8 more
TL;DR: Intensive therapy in patients with type 1 diabetes was associated with a substantial reduction in the long-term risk of ocular surgery and the costs of surgery were 32% lower in the intensive-therapy group.
Journal ArticleDOI
The changing fate of the corneal endothelium in cataract surgery.
TL;DR: Advances in surgical technique, the implementation of newer surgical technologies such as torsional ultrasound and viscoelastic devices, and aspects of patients’ preexisting medical history may lead to varying degrees of endothelial cell loss after cataract surgery.

Heat production: Longitudinal versus torsional phacoemulsification.
Young Keun Han,Kevin M. Miller +1 more
TL;DR: Lower operating temperatures indicate lower heat generation within the same volume of fluid, and this may provide additional thermal protection during cataract surgery.
