Ben LaHood, MD, MBChB(dist), PGDipOphth(dist), FRANZCO, who served as a member of the judges' panel for CRST's Phaco Saves video contest, joins grand prize winner Ahmed Assaf, MD, PhD, FRCS(Ed), and runner up Steven G. Safran, MD, to discuss the cases featured in their winning videos and how they stay calm during challenging situations in the OR.

This episode of CRST: The Podcast comes full circle to discuss advances in phacoemulsification—one of the topics featured in the debut issue of our print publication. A lot has changed since September 2001, and in today's episode James A. Davison, MD, FACS, Himani Goyal, MD, Jason J. Jones, MD, Mitrofanis Pavlidis, MD, and Vittorio Picardo, MD, share how they have improved the efficiency of their surgical technique with advances in modern phaco technology. 

In this episode of Ophthalmology off the Grid, Blake Williamson, MD, MPH, and Andy Corley welcome two pioneers of phaco—Chuck Williamson, MD, and Jim Little, MD. The quartet discusses the origins of phaco in cataract surgery, the subsequent learning curve within the OR, and how those initial cornerstones compare to today's usage.

Sean Henahan interviews Soosan Jacob about some tips for performing phaco in small eyes.

Sean Henahan talks to Soosan Jacob about preparing for your first phacoemulsification and how to reduce the stress from the experience for both surgeon and patient.

In the new age of phacoemulsification there have been significant advances in the technology including everything from pump and power to phaco tips. This has led to overall improvements in cataract surgery particularly in difficult cases. Richard Packard discusses this topic with Dr Boris Malyugin. (Interview took place in 2017)

Whitney Hauser: Hi, I’m Dr. Whitney Hauser with Dry Eye Coach podcast and we welcome today Dr. Tal Raviv, Founder and Medical Director of the Eye Center of New York. Welcome, doctor. Tal Raviv: Thanks for having me. I’m a fan of your podcast. Whitney Hauser: Oh, very good. Very good. Thanks so much. We really enjoy doing them and we rely on experts like yourself to provide us some content and clarity on a lot of interesting issues in dry eye disease. Today we’re going to be talking about dry eye treatment pre and post cataract surgery. And this, I know, is impactful for our patients and for our practices both in optometry and ophthalmology. So we’re just gonna kind of get the ball rolling here in a few minutes with some questions, but is there anything just sort of off the top of your head that comes to mind about pre and postop for eye disease that listeners need to consider? Tal Raviv: I think we’ll get into the conversation, but certainly the fact that we have a whole podcast on this just highlights the importance of it and we’ll get into why that is, and it’s an issue that I talk about every day. In fact, my last patient today was someone who was post op with dry eye, and we got into this conversation. The more we speak with them before, the better prepared we are to speak with them after. Whitney Hauser: Right, right. I think we’ve all heard that before. You know, it’s your fault if it happens afterwards. Otherwise, if you’ve diagnosed on the front end, you know, it’s really something that the doctor and patient really try to conquer together. Tal Raviv: Exactly. Whitney Hauser: To kind of set the foundation, in the Trattler’s Landmark PHACO study that was published a few years ago, we found that about three quarters of patients presenting for cataract surgery had ocular surface disease and at least half have ocular surface problems that alter the results of biometry or could otherwise negatively affect surgical outcomes. So, like you said, there’s such an impact to the patient in terms of the numbers and in terms of their ultimate outcome with the surgery. I guess the first question really to kind of get things going is, those numbers are very large. So let’s talk about what they mean. What is the impact or what could dry eye have on the outcomes of cataract surgery if it went untreated? Tal Raviv: Well, I think that study, the PHACO study, was really a great paper in documenting what many of us already know, but actually documenting even worse than what we thought. He found up to 78 percent, and, you know, I think Dr. Gupta had a study that found up to 80 percent of patients coming in for cataract surgery, had some signs and symptoms of dry eye disease. Now, how does it affect us? It impacts cataract surgeons in three ways. Not the surgeons, but patients and then their conversations with their surgeons, that is. Number one, as you mentioned, is getting poor biometry or keratometry which is a key part of our calculations. Keratometry is exquisitely sensitive to dryness and if we don’t pay attention to that, the studies have shown – Alice Epitropoulus has great study showing as well – that with high osmolarity, we’re likely to have an error in our biometry. So that’s a very specific, long lasting effect on those patients — they end up with a refractive error that we don’t desire. Number two is that dry eye signs, such as punctate kerotopathy and corneal staining also have a negative effect on the visual quality, so if we place an advanced technology lens, such as a presbyopic IOL in the patient and they revert back to their worn out cornea that’s dry, they’re going to have poor visual outcome. They won’t see far

Paul Rosen interviews Richard Packard about his early experience of phaco. Dr Packard talks about  working with Eric Arnott at the Charing Cross Hospital in London,UK,  the first phaco machines, the opposition he encountered from many of his colleagues and the eventual acceptance of the procedure.   Paul Rosen interviews Patrick Condon about the early days of phacoemulsification. Irish surgeon Patrick Condon visited Charles Kelman in New York, where he observed surgeries and travelled with Kelman by private helicopter, as well as later bringing him to Ireland in the mid-1980s. He also worked with Eric Arnott in London, where he learned the procedure. He tells Paul Rosen how the development of capsulorhexis and lens implants were key to phaco going mainstream, following years of heavy opposition, and looks to the future to see what direction the surgery will go in next   Sean Henahan talks to Bekir Sitki Aslan, Head of Eye Department, Ankara Memorial Hospital, Turkey about what has changed 50 years after the introduction of phaco.
