How to Use Alger Brush To Effectively Clean The Eyes

An alger brush is specifically designed for removing rust rings on the corneal surface. It has a burr attached to a rotating instrument, which has a motor with very low torque. The motor utilizes a centrifugal force that rotates the burrs in a slow and well-controlled manner. It removes the rust ring by brushing of the corneal surface until all rust rings are removed. In this way, the corneal surface is left smooth, which facilitates healing faster and without any residual damage.

What Instruments Are Used in Microsurgery?

Microsurgery is a revolutionary method of repairing and transferring small body tissues such as blood vessels and nerves. This type of surgery requires the use of a microscope to see very small structures during the surgical procedure. The involved body tissues are so small that they are very difficult to manipulate using unaided vision. Consequently, the instruments used should also allow greater access and maneuverability.

Application of diamond knives in ophthalmic surgery by Dr. Pablo Luis Daponte

Abstract—Vitreoretinal surgery requires dexterous manoeu-vres of tiny surgical tools in the confined cavity of the human eye through incisions made on the sclera. The fulcrum effect stemming from these incisions limits the safely reachable intra-ocular workspace and may result in scleral stress and collision with the intraocular lens. This paper proposes a concentric tube robot for panretinal interventions without risking scleral or lens damage.

How Can Ophthalmologists Adapt to Treating More Patients?

You may have noticed an influx in patients at your ophthalmology practice over the course of the last year; wait times may have increased in length, more surgeries may be scheduled, and new patients are likely arriving at a faster pace.

How to Improve Patient Satisfaction at your Ophthalmology Practice
