Strategies for Very Dense Nuclei and<br />
Other Challenging and Complicated<br />
Cases; A Video Course<br />
Presenter: Khiun Tjia<br />
Course Description: Course will show video clips of very dense<br />
cataracts, zonular weakness, IFIS syndrome, very shallow anterior<br />
chamber, and posterior capsular rupture cases, which require a<br />
different approach than routine uncomplicated cases.<br />
A wide range of video clips with simple and useful tips and<br />
techniques is offered for the experienced cataract surgeon to deal<br />
with these cases. ultrasound and torsional ultrasound power<br />
settings, fluid dynamics settings, appropriate incision sizes and<br />
phaco tip choice will be discussed.<br />
Course Objective: Attendees will learn general strategy<br />
guidelines and special techniques for challenging cataract<br />
surgery. Specific insight in phaco tip and sleeve choice as well<br />
as good understanding of torsional ultrasound amplitude and<br />
fluidics settings are provided.<br />
Target Audience: Cataract Surgeons<br />
Educational Level: Intermediate, Advanced<br />

SICS with Trabeculectomy: A Combined<br />
Safe and Effective Procedure<br />
Presenters: Sumit Choudhury, Samar Basak, Santanu Mandal<br />
Objective: Video assisted surgical management of coexisting<br />
cataract and glaucoma cases by small incision cataract surgery<br />
(SICS) combined with trabeculectomy.<br />
Summary of Content: This procedure is of much use for<br />
ophthalmologists confident about SICS but still not comfortable<br />
with phacoemulsification in all types of cataract cases.<br />
The course will emphasise the steps of performing the surgery<br />
meticulously and cost effectively in a developing country.<br />
We will also share our experience in postoperative management<br />
of these cases and give valuable tips to improve the success rates.<br />

• Preoperative Assessment of Cases: Santanu Mandal<br />
• Additional Maneuvers to Improve Quality: Sumit Choudhury<br />
• Postoperative Management: Sumit Choudhury<br />
• Panel Discussion<br />

Uveitis: Basic Understanding and<br />
Diagnostic Approaches Made Easy<br />
Presenters: Manish Jain, Amit Nagpal, J. Biswas<br />
Objective: To provide a basic understanding of the disease<br />
processes and to discuss a prudent and user friendly approach<br />
to the differential diagnosis of uveitic entities.<br />
Summary of Content: Uveitis is a heterogeneous group of ocular<br />
inflammatory conditions with varied presentations and often a<br />
sight threatening prognosis. The instruction course begins by<br />
elucidating a basic understanding of the underlying disease<br />
processes. Disease entities are grouped into predominantly<br />
inflammatory/ immunological, infectious with potential for<br />
hypersensitivity, purely infectious states in either normal or<br />
