Synopsis: Techniques for small-incision cataract surgery continue to evolve. Cataract removal in combination with glaucoma filtration surgery is facilitated by reduced incision size, assuring a greater like­lihood for successful long-term filtration. The didactic portion of this skills transfer course analyzes the steps for combined cataract-glau­coma surgery, and evaluates the "state of the art" for small-incision cataract surgery.

Objective: Course participants will be made aware of the latest advances in small- incision cataract surgery and phacotrabeculecto­my. In combination with the laboratory session, the program is designed to enable participants to apply the most current surgical methods for cataract/glaucoma to their respective practices.

Note: Registrants are required to sign an infectious disease transmission waiver/release form. Students will be sharing microscopes. Advance fee: $400 (Adv) Onsite fee: $440
