  2. Mydriasis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mydriasis

    Blocking acetylcholine receptors reduces the pupillary muscles' ability to constrict and causes dilation (which is critical in eye surgery procedures such as cataract surgery which require uninterrupted access to the inner eye via the pupillary aperture, thus requiring that the eye be both paralyzed and anesthetized before the procedure can go ...

  3. Dilated fundus examination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilated_fundus_examination

    Dilated fundus examination (DFE) is a diagnostic procedure that uses mydriatic eye drops to dilate or enlarge the pupil in order to obtain a better view of the fundus of the eye. [1] Once the pupil is dilated, examiners use ophthalmoscopy to view the eye's interior, which makes it easier to assess the retina , optic nerve head , blood vessels ...

    Visual outcome after cataract surgery was close to conformity with WHO guidelines in Buenos Aires, where more than 80% of post-surgery eyes had visual acuity of 6/18 (20/60) or better, but ranged between 60% and 79% in most of the other regions, and was less than 60% in Guatemala and Peru. [126]

  5. Manual small incision cataract surgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manual_small_incision...

    Manual small incision cataract surgery (MSICS) is an evolution of extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE); the lens is removed from the eye through a self-sealing scleral tunnel wound. A well-constructed scleral tunnel is held closed by internal pressure, is watertight, and does not require suturing.

  6. Ophthalmoscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ophthalmoscopy

    The pupil is a hole through which the eye's interior can be viewed. For better viewing, the pupil can be opened wider (dilated; mydriasis) before ophthalmoscopy using medicated eye drops (dilated fundus examination). However, undilated examination is more convenient (albeit not as comprehensive), and is the most common type in primary care.

  7. Irvine–Gass syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irvine–Gass_syndrome

    After cataract surgery, patients with diabetes mellitus are generally acknowledged to have an increased risk of macular edema. [12] A prior history of retinal vein occlusion was the only significant preoperative risk factor in a large retrospective series of 1659 consecutive cataract surgeries. [13]
