Book Description
Vitreoretinal (VR) surgery has steadily evolved over the years and this handbook provides a comprehensive overview about its past, present and future. It covers a wide array of topics ranging from its fascinating origins to recent technological advances, from surface anatomy to their clinical relevance, from anaesthesia to building and maintenance of operation theatre, from major surgical steps to sub-steps, from preventing to managing complications, and from routine surgeries to rare surgeries. Included in addition is a section on futuristic surgeries and another on important studies in relation to vitreoretinal surgery. Hence, Handbook of Vitreoretinal Surgery serves as a ready reference for both fledgling and experienced VR surgeons in this exciting field of ophthalmic surgery. . Key Features Includes recent developments like 3D surgery, telescopic IOL, bionic implants and robotic surgery. Highlights the importance of surface anatomy and provides a deeper view into the working of vitreous machines, microscopes and other surgical components. Text is supported with videos of rare surgeries like endoillumination-assisted scleral buckling surgery, placement of retisert intravitreal implant, suprachoroidal drug injection, intralesional injection into a subretinal abscess and endoillumination-assisted biopsy of intraocular mass lesions.

Book Description
This is the second edition of a highly successful textbook that in many areas has become the preferred manual of vitreoretinal surgery. It provides a complete guide to all common vitreoretinal surgical procedures and also covers diagnosis and other aspects of management. The book is designed to allow a trainee or professional vitreoretinal surgeon to determine the best methodology in individual cases. In order to acquaint the reader with different opinions, “surgical pearls” have been contributed by other international experts in the field. These have proved popular in the past as an illustration of alternative methods, without detracting from the overall method described by the main author. Vitreoretinal Surgery will continue to prove particularly popular amongst trainees, but will also be of value to practicing professionals who need help in the management of difficult and rare cases. The text is backed up by the provision of videos of some aspects of the surgery.

Book Description
Since publication of the first edition of this book in 2012 vitreoretinal surgery has marched with huge steps forward. In 2012 23G was standard, today 25G and 27G are the most commonly used gauge sizes for vitrectomy. In 2012 the cutting rate was 5.000 cuts/min and today with the development of a novel vitreous cutter the cutting rate has increased to 16.000 cuts/min. The advent of 25G/27G made the instruments smaller and surgery less traumatic. Practical Handbook for Small-Gauge Vitrectomy: A Step-By-Step Introduction to Surgical Techniques, 2ndEdition focuses on these new developments and features new chapters on PVR detachment, intraocular tumour, macular translocation, sub macular hemorrhages and ocular trauma. The surgeries are demonstrated step-by-step and the material is shown in detail and videos visualize the surgery.This book will serve as an immensely useful guide for all surgeons who are intending to make use of this exciting and increasingly used technique.
