The human eye is such a delicate organ that inner eye surgery requires the utmost skill from the surgeon. “The slightest mistake can have catastrophic consequences. Modern cataract ultrasound emulsion surgery is even more demanding in terms of the operator’s proficiency and the degree of cooperation with the surgical instruments. Under surface anesthesia, it takes a formal learning process and long clinical practice to complete a series of microsurgical operations smoothly in a space of 0.3 cubic millimeters, without injuring the corneal endothelium in the front and the posterior capsule of the lens in the back, in order to achieve it gradually. Nanjing General Eye Hospital is the first unit in Jiangsu Province to perform cataract ultrasound emulsification combined with IOL implantation. As early as the 1990s, it began to apply this minimally invasive advanced technology to bring light to many cataract patients. After years of development, the instruments have been updated and the surgical technology has become increasingly mature. Currently, we have the world’s most advanced AlconInfiniti ultrasound emulsification instrument with a twisting handle that can intelligently change the ultrasound mode (IP function) according to the condition of different patients. With the clear vision brought by the Zeiss surgical microscope, the technical level of cataract surgery has always maintained the leading level in China and even internationally. Today, when cataract patients come to Nanjing General Eye Hospital for consultation, they can be scheduled for surgery after some necessary preoperative examinations. Depending on the patient’s actual condition, he or she can choose inpatient surgery or outpatient surgery. A series of advanced examination equipment in the ophthalmology department, such as corneal endothelioscope, IOL Master, A/B ultrasound, corneal topography, etc., provide a strong guarantee for the safety of the surgery and the selection of individualized IOLs. Patients can choose the most suitable IOL according to their own economic conditions and refractive status of the affected eye, thus obtaining the most ideal post-operative visual quality. A variety of new functional IOLs, such as multifocal IOLs, aspheric IOLs, and astigmatism-correcting IOLs, are available to better meet the needs of high-end people with higher requirements for post-operative visual quality.
