gimme a thumbs up if u agree RU-vid needs to change the policy back to where we can comment on eye surgery videos!... The comment section of cataractcoach is a valuable forum...I hope its not a thing of the past btw- great video Dr.Devgan! special thx for doing all that math for us! ; )
agree with you. now when they age restrict a video, youtube turns off comments automatically. I have to manually go back and try to turn them back on for every single video.
Thank you so much for the excellent work you present on this channel. I usually get to see 2-6 cataract surgeries per day in the clinic and on your channel I can literally see 10-20x more in the same time with great commentary.
Thank you for a much more balanced talk this time compared to your first one. It would help if you clarify at the outset if your video is for patient education or for ophthalmologists. An overly technical talk is likely to bring more confusion, anxiety and even remorse in a patient’s mind. An objective video like this one is a wonderful source of useful information for both. Warm regards.
Sir a huge fan of your work. In todays world with so many option of lenses, what would you chose if you were to get operated? monovision, EDOF, Multifocal?
Dr. Uday , when describing the amount of light passing through the IC-8 , I guess the assumption was that the light approaches the lens perpendicularly , however the Cornea actually does %70 of light focusing before the light rays reach the lens , so light rays are already gathered/focussed by the cornea , the calculations based on only on the diameter of the opening in the IC-8 could be underestimating the amount of light reaching the retina , am I right in my analysis ?
I had a pair of pan-optic IOL put in my eyes but the procedure caused dozens of floaters to appear. Only two trips to a floater specialist improved my vision and I would like even more floaters (several big ones) treated. My question is why did I get so many Only after IOL implants? Was surgeon too rough handling my eyes?
Great discussion as always coach. Here in the Philippines, we also have the Teleon Lentis Comfort IOL which is a refractive type EDOF lens. I’m curious how you think it may compare to these 3. There is also the upcoming J&J puresee.
If a surgeon has trifocal or EDOF (Extended Depth of Focus) lenses implanted in their eyes, could they encounter any issues while performing surgeries using a microscope?
I believe this was FDA approved as only a monofocal IOL (like Tecnis Eyhance or Alcon Clareon) but not as an actual EDOF extended depth of field IOL. Please let me know if you have data that shows otherwise.
Dr. Devgan, I had Vivity EDOF lenses implanted last August (2022). Apparently the prescription was not correct or the lenses were misaligned. Regardless, my surgeon did a laser "tune-up" in February 2023. This procedure not only didn't improve my vision but now I am dealing with rainbows around just about all lights. I would be interested to know if you have ever experienced this type of complication and if so, have you identified possible procedures to correct the issue.
