Abstract Details

Purpose:

Cataract surgery has long depended exclusively on the microscope. 3D digitally assisted cataract surgery is a new proposal where the surgeon observes the TV monitor directly. The learning curve, advantages, disadvantages and features interaction with other devices and specialties will be demonstrated in this video.

Setting:

Centro Brasileiro da Visão , Brasília - Brazil

Methods:

Their image differentials, interaction with other appliances, teaching and presentation ability, room layout, instrumentation are analyzed. Its applications in challenging cases and surgeries combined with MIGS, ECP are described.

Results:

Its image presented a high quality of resolution, contrast and brightness  without noticeable delay, various color features, greater range of focus. The interaction with the Verion imaging system and the ECP system was effective.With the 3D system show more comfortable posture to operate. Side-by-side instrumentation was useful for cataract surgeries. Glaucoma surgery by MIGs implant was easier because  the rotation of the microscope head did not interfere with the surgeon's position. The 3D system allowed the surgery to be performed standing, facilitating cases of patients with difficulty of decubitus with Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Conclusions:

The Ngenuity 3D system proved to be efficient for conventional cataract surgery combined with glaucoma and in challenging cases
