cataract surgery

i forgot to post about this in my blog yesterday. so yeah, yesterday morning, i went to the eye OT for the first time. Mr. Asok was the surgeon and i observed him do phacoemulsion for an immature cataract and extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE)
for a mature cataract.


eye surgery is all about microscopic surgery. so you'd have to have REALLY steady hands to be an ophthalmologist. the cataract surgeries were really cool though. i love watching them!
