Cataract Surgery in Uveitis
Presenters: Hassan Al-Dhibi, Hamad Al-Farikh, Maan Al Barry,
Ali Al-Khairi, Mosa Al-Harby
Objective: Cataract is a common complication encountered in
uveitis. Proper timing of surgery, selection of the surgical
techniques and meticulous control of postoperative
inflammation are keys to a successful visual outcome.
Summary of Content:
1- Indications for surgery
2- Outcome based on type of uveitis
3- Preoperative contol of inflammation
4- Appropriate surgical technique
5- Intraocular lens implantation
6- Management of postoperative complications
Target Audience: General Ophthalmologists
Educational Level: Intermediate

When, What, Why, How Of Pediatric
Cataract
Presenter: Zia-ul-Mazhry
Objectives: Upon completion of this course, the
ophthalmologist should be able to:
• Initiate a surgical intervention at the appropriate time when
faced with a unilateral or bilateral pediatric cataract.
• Explain the advantages and disadvantages to IOL implantation
in pediatric age group.
• Describe the different types of intraocular lenses available for
implantation in pediatric cataract surgery.
• Identify and manage frequent intraoperative complications
encountered in pediatric cataract surgery.
Summary of Content: In spite of enormous development in
modern cataract surgery, management of pediatric cataract is as
challenging as before. Controversies still exist regarding timing
and technique of surgical intervention. Use of IOLs, contact
lenses and aphakic spectacles is yet another front where opinions
differ. Timely clearance of the visual axis is mandatory for proper
visual development in pediatric age group. This course reviews
various options for management of pediatric cataract.
Target Audience: General Ophthalmologists or Pediatric
Ophthalmologists
Educational Level: Intermediate, Advanced

Eye Tracking in Laser Refractive Surgery
Presenters: Seyed-Farzad Mohammadi, Ronald Krueger,
Sasan Niknam, Mahsa Pazooki, Banafshe Vakilian
Capital Suite 8
Objective:
• To understand the basics of eye tracking in laser refractive
surgery
• To optimize eye tracking by the refractive surgeon
Summary of Content:
• Multidimensional eye rotation (and translation) and cyclotorsion,
and anterior segment optical references are described. Fixational
behavior of the eye is defined.
• The concept ‘ablation fidelity’ and laser beam placement is
delivered in the context of decentration, rotational
misalignment and tilted ablation.
• Eye tracking technology and terminology are covered: eye
features registration and recognition; tracking: laser radar
photoelectric based/ analog vs. video camera IR image-based/
digital analysis; sampling rate; open vs. closed feedback loops;
reaction time/ latency and the response in laser delivery system
mirror realignment; fixation targets, panels, cross hair and
targets, registration- recognition methods are compared; eye
tracking approaches: control: manual, active and passive;
recognition: static (1-time adjustment), and dynamic are
introduced.
• Q&A and Case Presentations: How to optimize eye tracking
application by refractive surgeons
