Inside Eye Surgery
Intraocular surgery: principles for safety, efficiency and control.
This section is for residents, fellows and ophthalmologists. It focuses on practical principles that make each surgical step more controlled and help the operation proceed efficiently, from routine phacoemulsification to complex cataract surgery.
Read the eye
Start with the anatomy and the instability that will change the plan.
Study one move
Short clips keep the learner’s attention on a single hand movement or decision.
Watch the model case
Long-form surgery shows how the steps connect and how pace is maintained.
Teaching series
Phaco Roadmap
A progressive pathway built around horizontal direct chop, with short step lessons and a complete model case.
Preserve the Bag
A decision-led approach to zonular weakness, temporary support, capsular tension devices and fixation.
Available lesson
Recognising zonular weakness before phaco
Preoperative clues, UBM findings, early intraoperative signs and planning before capsular control is lost.
The learning unit
One question per lesson.
- 01Set the view
What should the learner notice before the instrument moves?
- 02Show the move
One short clip, one technique, one reason.
- 03Connect the consequence
How does this step make the next step easier—or harder?
- 04Rewatch in context
The complete surgery, with the pace and sequence preserved.
