Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Fantastic for beginners in cataract surgery!
If you want to understand and not just perform a cataract surgery this is the very basic knowledge to start with! An essential for ophthalmology residents!



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Good for the beginner
I am an ophthalmology resident and was frustrated by different staff giving me different answers about what my phaco settings did for me. This book is a good reference for understanding the mechanics behind what you are doing. The text is limited to what you need to understand the diagram on the opposite page. There is very little in the way of long descriptions without practical applications or diagrams to keep you engaged. Also has some helpful points on capsulorrhexis and microscope use.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - a must for phaco beginners
this book allow you to start phaco with confidence. step-wise approach is helpful
