SYM-12 - Cataract Crossover Symposium: Cataract Surgery and All the Subspecialities

About this Session

Session Moderators: Zaina Al-Mohtaseb, MD, ABO; Cathleen M. McCabe, MD; Marjan Farid, MD, ABO

Co-existing ocular disease can pose unique challenges to cataract surgery. In this symposium we discuss cataract surgery in patients with oculoplastic disease (such as lid abnormalities), retinal disease (such as age-related macular degeneration or diabetic macular edema), glaucoma (previous filtering surgery), neuro-ophthalmic disease (such as prior AION or diplopia), and corneal disease (Fuchs or previous corneal grafts). We will discuss preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative risks in these complex eyes and pearls on how to approach cataract surgery.
