Publisher's Synopsis

Illustrative Guide to Cataract Surgery by Dr. Amar Agarwal is a unique book that includes clinical photographs, medical illustrations, and videos to explain the most common techniques and steps in cataract surgery. With more than 700 illustrations ophthalmologists and residents will visually learn the most essential procedures in cataract surgery, photo-by-photo.

The content, comprised from leading ophthalmic surgeons, is structured into systematically divided sections such as phaco surgery, microincisional cataract surgery, challenging cases, and complications. It allows for quick reference, without having to search through voluminous books. Each image is supplemented with concise, informative text that helps further explain the techniques.

In addition, video instruction is offered through a companion website, with each book purchase. Using the same approach as the book, the website presents videos that match each technique or step in cataract surgery.

Just a few of the procedures explained:

  • Vertical chopping
  • Bioxial microincisional cataract surgery
  • Posterior Polar Cataract
  • Iris hooks in small pupil phaco
  • Injectable glued IOL
  • And more

With a combination of matching photos and illustrations alongside brief text and website, Illustrative Guide to Cataract Surgery stands apart from traditional books.
