This wetlab based course will feature hands-on training for participants reviewing the principles and techniques for ocular trauma repair. Participants will review principles for the repair of complex corneoscleral lacerations, while having hands on experience in practicing basic and advanced corneal suturing techniques, including suturing under tension. Basic principles will be discussed including suture selection, placement, width, depth, and te...

Implantation of an IOL in the absence of capsular support remains challenging for many surgeons. Intrascleral haptic fixation using the flanged, double needle (Yamane) technique allows the surgeon to scleral fixate a 3 piece IOL in the setting of complete zonular compromise. The technique leaves the conjunctiva and sclera relatively undisturbed compared to other scleral fixation techniques while also reducing surgical time. Attendees will ga...
Cataract STC-Bi-manual Anterior Vitrectomy. Participants will gain hands-on experience in anterior vitrectomy to manage vitreous prolapse encountered during anterior segment surgery. They will gain a better understanding of machine settings to optimize fluidics for various tasks. This segment will also introduce options for secondary IOL placement. Faculty will include both experienced ca...

This hands-on lab will transfer the surgical skills required for the use of newer strabismus techniques. Attendees will perform the procedures using a 3D-printed silicone model validated for strabismus surgery simulation, under the operating microscope and/or using attendee’s personal loupes. Specific techniques the attendee will learn include: use of the grooved hook for safe suturing of tight muscles, revised hang-back recession with tissue glue, rectus musc...
