Refractive lens exchange (RLE) is too often treated as a single, standardized procedure—but Arun C. Gulani, MD argues it should never be approached that way. In Part 1, Dr. Gulani introduces his 4-type classification system for RLE, built on more than three decades of integrating corneal surgery, premium IOLs, and laser vision correction. Rather than presenting patients with a menu of lens options, his approach—rooted in what he calls LenzOplastique—focuses on identifying the right individualized surgical pathway for each eye.

Not every patient with ocular surface disease says, "My eyes feel dry." Sometimes the most revealing question is simply: "Tell me about your vision." In this short case video, we discuss how one open-ended question uncovered the real issue behind fluctuating vision before advanced cataract surgery—and why listening carefully can change the entire surgical plan. #CataractSurgery #OcularSurfaceDisease #DryEye #Ophthalmology #Optometry #MedicalEducation #LightAdjustableLens

The evidence is really stacking up. MIGS combined with cataract surgery protects against visual field progression compared to cataract surgery alone, as shown by this analysis of the HORIZON Trial: https://lnkd.in/ea58mgWM The most logical explanation of this is the consistency of IOP control achieved by trabecular bypass, namely Hydrus in this RCT, as opposed to the variable IOP seen with drops, due to either the diurnal variation of IOP, which is significantly blunted by MIGS and SLT as shown by several studies, or poor adherence to drops, which is avoided altogether with MIGS. Can you think of any other reasons why MIGS slows down visual field loss progression? #Ophthalmology #Optometry #Glaucoma #MIGS EyePros

Patients often experience corneal irritation or dry eye after ocular surgery, resulting in dissatisfaction and frustration at their new discomfort. Doctors across the country are recommending HydroEye for their pre- and post-operative patients. This clinically-tested oral formula includes gamma linolenic acid (GLA), an omega that stimulates tear production and has been found to help reduce ocular surface irritation. Help provide a more well-rounded experience for your patients.

Bleeding Near a Nerve During Surgery? His First Move Isn't What You'd Expect. I talked with Dr. H. Ryan Kazemi about how he manages active bleeding near the neurovascular bundle during third molar surgery, and it starts with something simple. 💡 Key Takeaways: 🔹 Direct pressure with gauze, held for 2-3 minutes at a time, is often the most effective initial response to active bleeding. 🔹 Pausing the procedure to properly manage bleeding takes priority over continuing the surgery. 🔹 Patience and consistent technique resolve the majority of intraoperative bleeding scenarios. Curious how others approach this — what's your protocol when you encounter unexpected bleeding near a critical structure? 👇 🎧 Watch the full conversation: https://lnkd.in/efWkaetr #DrRyanKazemi #OralSurgery #Hemostasis #DentalSurgery #ClinicalExcellence

In ophthalmic surgery, time is vision. Every unnecessary minute added to a procedure increases risks of corneal edema, inflammation, and surgeon fatigue. Instrument-related delays – missing, malfunctioning, or improperly prepared tools – are among the most common preventable causes of operating room inefficiency. Our new article shares some insights on how to reduce instrument-related surgical delays. https://lnkd.in/d68R4MZk #rumexinstruments #ophthalmicsurgery

Does every massive subretinal hemorrhage require surgery? A new case report suggests not. In this article, Michael Zhao, MD and Harry W. Flynn Jr., MD, describe two patients with massive subretinal hemorrhage who achieved long-term stability following anti-VEGF monotherapy, adding to growing evidence supporting a less invasive treatment approach in selected cases. Could anti-VEGF monotherapy play a larger role in the management of massive subretinal hemorrhage?
