One-handed revolving technique for soft cataract extraction

Chucking: A One-Handed Document Sharing Technique

Usage patterns of private mobile devices are constantly evolving. For example, researchers have recently found that mobile users prefer using their devices with only one hand. Furthermore, current hardware in these devices reduces the need for a stylus and instead relies on finger input. However, current interactive techniques, such as those used for sharing documents between private and public...

Comparison of surgically induced astigmatism between one-handed and two-handed cataract surgery techniques

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to compare surgically induced astigmatism (SIA) between one-handed and two-handed cataract surgery techniques. METHODS Eighty-eight eyes of 44 patients with no ocular disease other than cataract, who underwent cataract surgery by a single surgeon, were selected for this study. Cataract surgery was performed by coaxial phacoemulsification and intraocula...

A new local anesthesia technique for cataract extraction by one quadrant sub-Tenon's infiltration.

A new technique of local anesthetic administration has been used for 50 patients undergoing cataract extraction. The simple technique involves direct transconjunctival infiltration of local anaesthetic directly to the sub-Tenon's space, in the inferior-nasal quadrant, using a blunt 19-gauge Southampton cannula. This method seeks to avoid the risks of retrobulbar haemorrhage, perforation of the ...
