Are You Experiencing Difficulties With Retinal Surgery on Patient With Restor Intraocular Lens?
September 17, 2009
I just operated on Friday on a patient with macular pucker. Nothing special pre-operatively. Very easy to see via slit lamp with the aid of a 90D lens. I have been down this path many times. In the OR, I couldn’t focus easily on the ERM. Patient had a Restor® intraocular lens with an open posterior capsule. I don’t know why this was a problem. Was it a problem with me (accomodation?) or a problem with the lens?
I welcome any comments.

interesting- never heard of that. cant be the accomodation if youre using a microscope! must be the restor lens. were you able to complete the case without incident?
you should bring this up with your retina coleagues- curious if they have similar problem
