Eye surgery, also known as
ocular surgery, is surgery performed on the eye or its adnexa, typically by an ophthalmologist
The eye is a fragile organ, requiring extreme
care before, during and after a surgical procedure. An expert eye surgeon must
identify the need for specific procedure and be responsible for conducting the
procedure safely. Many university programmes allow patients to specify if they
want to be operated upon by the consultant or the resident / fellow.
Anesthesia is essential for any eye surgery.
Local anesthesia is most commonly used. Retrobulbar
and peribulbar techniques for
infiltrating the local area surrounding the eye muscle cone are used to
immobilize the extraocular muscles and eliminate pain sensation. Topical anesthesia
using lidocaine topical gel is preferred for quick procedures. In topical
anesthesia, patient cooperation is a must for a smooth procedure. General anesthesia is recommended for children,
traumatic eye injuries, major orbitotomies and for apprehensive patients.
Cardiovascular monitoring is preferable in local
anesthesia and is mandatory in general anesthesia. Proper sterile
precautions are taken to prepare the area for surgery, including use of
antiseptics like povidone-iodine. Sterile drapes, gowns and gloves are
a must. A plastic sheet with a receptacle helps collect the fluids during
phacoemulsification. An eye speculum is inserted to keep the eyes wide open. Eye Surgery In India
