2. Cataract surgery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cataract_surgery

   Cataract surgery in small animals such as dogs and cats is a routine ophthalmic procedure with a success rate of around 90%, and is usually better for eyes with relatively recent cataract development. The presence of other ocular problems may reduce the success rate. Procedures are similar to those for humans.

3. Manual small incision cataract surgery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manual_small_incision...

   Manual small incision cataract surgery (MSICS) is an evolution of extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE); the lens is removed from the eye through a self-sealing scleral tunnel wound. A well-constructed scleral tunnel is held closed by internal pressure, is watertight, and does not require suturing.

4. Clear lens extraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clear_lens_extraction

   In addition to the common complications of cataract surgery, clear lens extraction may also cause premature posterior vitreous detachment and retinal detachment, [2] particularly in patients with high Myopia. However, modern surgical techniques and advanced lens technology have significantly reduced the likelihood of this and other complications.

5. History of cataract surgery - Wikipedia

   Toric IOLs were introduced in 1992 and are used worldwide to correct corneal astigmatism during cataract surgery; [39] [1] they have been approved by the FDA since 1998. [42] Also in the late 1990s, optical biometry based on partial coherence infrared interferometry was introduced: this technique improves visual resolution, offers much greater ...

6. Alpins method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpins_method

   The advent of excimer laser technology (e.g., laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis, or LASIK) also introduced a conundrum between incisional and ablation techniques; specifically, should treatment be planned according to refractive cylinder values as introduced with laser refractive surgery, or corneal astigmatism parameters as had been ...

   Femtosecond laser mode-locking, used during cataract surgery, was originally used to cut accurate and predictable flaps in LASIK surgery, and has been introduced to cataract surgery. The incision at the junction of the sclera and cornea and the hole in capsule during capsulorhexis, traditionally made with a handheld blade, needle, and forceps ...
