FILM FESTIVAL Film Festival FF1 – Cataract/Implant Surgery TITLE PRODUCER FF1-01 Minimally Invasive IOL Extraction Sachiko FUKUOKA Japan Recently, we have been encountering more cases of IOL extraction for IOL subluxation or dislocation than before. Conventional method with cutting the IOL using forceps and extracting through small incision may cause damage to the corneal endothelium or iris. To minimize these complications, we introduce our new technique for IOL extraction combining cartridge and forceps. FF1-02 A Novel Approach to Toric Axis Alignment Narendrasingh VERMA India A new approach to toric axis marking which is accessible to all, easy to use, reliable, economical, non- cumbersome, and patient-surgeon friendly. Errors due to cyclotorsion, head tilt, and parallax are nullified. An effective method which makes it easy to record, reproduce, and compare the rotation of lens in postoperative follow-ups which can further be useful for research, analysis, and guidance in development of new designs of lens and implantation procedures. Color picture of the eye is captured while measuring axis of astigmatism thus preventing error due to cyclotorsion and head tilt. Final axis of alignment (calculated using toric calculator) is marked on the captured image. During axis alignment, a silhouette of a lens is overlaid in the center and compared with iris and rhexis margin to prevent parallax error. FF1-03 Bashar`s Technique of SFIOL a New Easy Wonderful Technique Abul Bashar SHEIKH Bangladesh Yamane is the last best technique for SFIOL, but there are a few problems. The eyeball becomes very soft, which may lead to choroidal detachment or suprachoroidal hemorrhage. If the A/C becomes shallow, there is chance of damage to the endothelium of the cornea. FF1-04 Intra Scleral Haptic Fixation (ISHF) Using Flanged Haptics (Modified Yamane) Technique Mahesh JAYAWEERA GAMAGE Sri Lanka Patients who were left with inadequate capsular bag support following complicated cataract surgeries were subjected to intrascleral fixation of IOL haptics, using single needle, flanged haptic technique, a modification of Yamane. Surgeries were done under sub-tenon anesthesia. Anterior chamber was stabilized with AC maintainer. Three-piece foldable acrylic PC-IOLs – Sensar (Abbott medicals) was introduced into the AC through a 2.6-mm incision. Haptics were externalized using 26-G needles with the help of microholding forceps, 2 mm away and parallel to the limbus and flanged using hot cautery. Series of videos highlights the pearls and challenges of this very useful technique which uses minimum instrumentation, ideal for centers with limited facilities. FF1-05 Thinking Out-Of-The-Bag: Tackling the narrow anterior segment Samaresh SRIVASTAVA India The film highlights the role of placing the haptics in the ciliary sulcus and capturing the IOL optic through the anterior and posterior capsulorhexes. This strategy prevents decentration and even late dislocation of the entire lens-capsular bag complex in cases with potential zonular weakness e.g. pseudoexfoliation. Further, in certain cases of angle closure glaucoma, it can prevent anterior displacement of the IOL and crowding of the anterior segment. 73
