    Synopsis

    Seibel (opthalmology, U. of California-Los Angeles) made up the term phacodynamics over a decade ago for the first edition, taking off from the term phacoemulsification, which refers to the surgical removal of a cataract. He presents fundamental principles of both the phaco machine and the microsurgical maneuvers shared by all of the step-by-step methods taught in phacoemulsification courses. Knowing the underlying principles, he says, will allow practitioners to transpose as necessary between methods, to improvise their own methods, and to adapt to virtually any surgical situation with confidence. The fourth edition incorporates the substantial growth in the number of techniques and technologies of cataract surgery that could benefit from a phacodynamic analysis.
