Failed Graft-Never Say Die!
Lords of the Rings and Hooks
Presenters: Gaurav Luthra, Kumar Doctor, Ike K Ahmed, Boris Malyugin, Ashu Agarwal
Video based course will highlight indications, limitations, and techniques
of experts in the use of rings and hooks to overcome challenging
situations in cataract surgery. All such devices including rings
(endocapsular/segments/pupil expansion) and hooks (iris/capsular) and
their application techniques will be demonstrated. Videos will include
subluxated cataract, small pupil, floppy iris, zonular dehiscence and
traumatic mydriasis among other challenging situations.
Attendees will be able to better understand when and how to use the
various kinds of rings, hooks and similar devices to ensure a safer, easier
and more predictable cataract surgical procedure in challenging situations.
Advanced course for cataract surgeons.
Presenters: Jatin Ashar, Vinay S Pillai, Pravin Vaddavalli, Sunita Chaurasia
Synopsis: Almost third of the grafts (penetrating/lamellar) fail. A repeat
surgery is needed for restoring vision. Repeat penetrating keratoplasty
(PK) has an increased risk of failure. In contrast, an endothelial keratoplasty
(DSEK) in such cases more predictable outcomes and advantages in terms
of freedom from sutures, reduced steroid dependency and reduced follow
up. Even DSEK may undergo failure. In such cases, a repeat DSEK or a PK is
needed. Each procedure has its own pros and cons. There is sparse
literature regarding outcomes of such surgery. Despite multiple attempts,
graft failure may be inevitable in some cases. Keratoprosthesis may be an
answer to this. The criteria for selection of the procedure, technique, post
operative medication and follow up vary for each one of them. A repeat
DSEK requires modifications in standard technique. All these have bearing
on the final outcome and prognosis.
Objective: At the end of the course, the attendee will be familiar with the
indications, surgical modalities and modifications, follow up and
benefits-risks of repeat graft (PK, DSEK and Keratoprosthesis) for graft
failure.

Presenters: Sumit Choudhury, Samar Basak, Santanu Mandal
Objective: Video assisted surgical management of coexisting cataract and
glaucoma cases by small incision cataract surgery (SICS) combined with
trabeculectomy.
Summary of Content: This procedure is of much use for ophthalmologists
confident about SICS but still not comfortable with phacoemulsification in
all types of cataract cases.
The course will emphasise the steps of performing the surgery meticulously and cost effectively in a developing country. We will also share our
experience in post operative management of these cases and give
valuable tips to improve the success rates.

Presenters: Manish Jain, Amit Nagpal, J Biswas
Objective: To provide a basic understanding of the disease processes and
to discuss a prudent and user friendly approach to the differential
diagnosis of Uveitic entities.
Summary of Content: Uveitis is a heterogeneous group of ocular
inflammatory conditions with varied presentations and often a sight
threatening prognosis. The instruction course begins by elucidating a basic
understanding of the underlying disease processes. Disease entities are
grouped into predominantly inflammatory/ immunological, infectious
with potential for hypersensitivity, purely infectious states in either normal
or immuno-compromised hosts and masquerade syndromes. Next,
rational use of basic, advanced and supportive laboratory investigations
along with their potential redundancy and fallacies is discussed, followed
by the role of ancillary tests. Finally, the indications and techniques of
invasive diagnostic interventions is elaborated.
Educational Level: Beginners and those at intermediate level.

Approach to The Management of Posterior Segment Ocular Trauma
Presenters: Mahesh Gopalakrishnan, Giridhar Anantharam, Prasan Rao
Posterior segment ocular trauma is a common cause of severe visual
loss. Timely intervention can prevent blinding complications and help
to sustain useful vision throughout life. Every ophthalmologist should
be aware of the management of fresh ocular trauma. It has got medico
legal implications also. This course is aimed at comprehensive
ophthalmologists and retinologists. Level of the course is intermediate.
After every didactic lecture, which will be aptly supported by video
demonstrations, there will be audience interaction also. The topics
covered include:
• Introduction and pathophysiological basis of posterior segment
ocular trauma
• Ultrasound imaging of posterior segment trauma
• Immediate management of open globe injury including occult scleral
rupture
• Macular involvement in closed globe injury
• Vitrectomy in open and closed globe injuries-when, Why and How?
• Management of complicated trauma related retinal detachments
• Evaluation and management of retained intraocular foreign body
• Post traumatic endophthalmitis - How is it diﬀerent from post
operative endophthalmitis
• Discussion

and Management

Early field loss is often represented by a region of variable responses rather
than by a localized deep scotoma. Increased local fluctuations typically
precede definite glaucomatous field defects in early glaucoma in a set of
subjects with 1) ocular hypertension, 2) Primary Angle Closure and 3)
glaucoma suspects who converted to glaucoma with early localized
defects. The conversion to glaucoma is a reproducible glaucomatous field
defect at the moment of their conversion in Automated Perimetry. This
retrospective chart reviews 129 cases (256 charts; 243 OHT+9 PAC+4
glaucoma suspects).Participants were tested once half-yearly and followed
up 4-7 years. Early defects manifested as increased variable responses in
affected areas of 9 charts out of 31 converted charts (25 converted
patients).Variability occurs mostly at pathological points in those 9 charts.
Test-retest variability increases in the areas finally becoming definitely
abnormal and representing warning signs of absolute defects.

Luthra Ganesh Venkataraman, Sathyan Parthasarathi, Ramakrishnan Rengappa
Course Objective: Attendees will discuss how complications happened. A detail
discussion on identification of sequence of events leading to the complications
and how they could be avoided for better end result and good patient satisfaction
for better visual outcome
Course Summary: Course will describe how simple cases go into disasters in Phaco.
It is an advanced video Instruction Course in which difficult situations like Chemosis,
a typical surge at the last piece, Nucleus drop, Re-gluing the sublaxated IOL,
sublaxation of IOLs, Zonular dialysis, Anterior capsular flap complication, Instrument
hook induced complications, Incision going wrong and ccc going radial, Microphaco
gone tough and many more are shown. The course will also cover the unsteady
Capsular Bag.
Target Audience: General ophthalmologists (anterior segment surgeons)
Objective: To highlight various modifications associated with
trabeculectomy and their outcomes.
Summary of Content: Trabeculectomy, the guarded filteration surgery,
has been a gold standard in glaucoma surgery for the last 5-6 decades.
If performed properly it helps to lower intraocular pressure without
any adverse effects. Complications of trabeculectomy occur even in
the hands of the expert. To enhance success rates additional modifications are in vogue. These modifications have not caught on uniformly
amongst the practising ophthalmologist. In this video instruction
course we describe the various modifications (preparation and use of
cytocidal and cytotoxic antimetabolites, Type 2 ologen collagen matrix
implant, various releasable suture techniques and the newer express
shunt) along with tips for safe surgery for optimal outcome of
trabeculectomy.

Pediatric Cataract Surgery: Conquering the Challenge
Presenters: Jagat Ram, Ken Nischal, Jaspreet Sukhija, Sudarshan Khokhar
Objective: To educate and discuss the challenges in the pediatric cataract
management.
Summary of Content: Major challenges associated with pediatric cataract surgery
in growing eyes are selection of optimal surgical technique, management of
aphakia, handling of technically difficult surgery, intraocular lens (IOL) power
calculation and management of postoperative complications.
Refined and perfected surgical techniques, availability of suitable IOL designs as
well as understanding the growth and refractive changes in children have made
IOL implantation safe modality in the management of pediatric cataract. Issues of
concern are the optimal age for IOL implantation, whether IOL implantation should
be as primary or a secondary, what IOL power to choose, target postoperative
refractive status. Latest trends in surgical techniques and the importance of
choosing the optimal means of optical rehabilitation will be discussed.

Neovascular Glaucoma - The Retina and Glaucoma Viewpoints
Curbside Consultation in Cataract Surgery
Presenters: Ramamurthy D, Abhay Vasavada, Suhas Haldipurkar, Jeewan Titiyal,
Chitra Ramamurthy
Objective: To deal with common challenges associated with cataract
surgery in a practical panel discussion format with abundant opportunity
for audience participation.
Summary of Content: Though Cataract surgery has progressed by leaps
and bounds there are still several unanswered questions and not so well
identified concepts. From an absolutely practical stand point this Course
will deal with, in a totally interactive panel discussion format, the dilemmas
faced by a practicing Ophthalmologist. Some of the subjects covered will
include:
Pre-operative medications in Cataract Surgery; Pain during surgery under
topical anaesthesia; Managing an errant capsulorhexis, Wound burn,
descemets membrane detachment; Early Intra op. clues for Posterior
Capsular rupture and performing an ideal anterior vitrectomy; How long to
observe a piece of posteriorly displaced lens matter; How to explant an
IOL; Dissatisifed multifocal IOL patients. Spherical aberration and need to
eliminate/reduce it; How to manage post cataract surgery refractive
surprise? IOL of choice in Post keratorefractive patient; Laser bioptics and
Toric IOL, Cataract surgery in a patient with Phakic IOL.
Presenters: Seshadri Saikumar, Anantharaman Giridhar, Vijaya Lingam, Gowri Murthy
Neovascular Glaucoma still remains a difficult and challenging
condition in Ophthalmology. The last few years has witnessed new
modalities in the diagnosis and management of Neovascular
Glaucoma (NVG), and thereby help clinicians salvage useful vision in
some of these eyes. Through didactic lectures and video films, this
course will present diagnostic and management algorithms which will
effectively combine the retina and glaucoma perspectives in the
management of this challenging clinical entity. The panel discussion
with case scenarios will help evolve a working algorithm for the
management of NVG. At the end of the course, the participants will
have a working knowledge as to how to tackle patients with
Neovascular glaucoma.
This is an intermediate level course targeted at glaucoma and Retina
specialists

An Instructional Course on Sutureless Vitrectomy
Presenter: Wael Abdelghani
Objective: This course is designed to give ophthalmologists an
Course Objective
overview of Sutureless Vitrectomy.
Summary of Content: The course will provide an overview of Pars
Plana Vitrectomy. It will then introduce sutureless 25 & 23 Gauge
Vitrectomy. Indications for use of 25 & 23 G vitrectomy will be
discussed and the techniques will be described with the aid of video
presentations. Advantages and limitations of 25 & 23 G vitrectomy
will also be reviewed, highlighting the most commonly encountered
complications. Illustrations and video presentations will be used
throughout the course to clarify the material, describe the technique
and give practicing doctors an opportunity to test their understanding of the material. Target Audience: This course is meant to benefit
Vitreo-Retinal surgeons who already have some experience with
vitrectomy.
Vitreo-Retinal surgeons completing this course should be able to:
• Describe the technique of sutureless 25 & 23 G Vitrectomy
• Enumerate the indications of sutureless 25 & 23 G Vitrectomy
• Discuss advantages and limitations of 25 & 23 G vitrectomy.
Vitreo-retinal specialists will have the opportunity to discuss and
compare this modern approach to other techniques that were
previously used.

Retinoblastoma - They Live and See!
Presenters: Santosh Honavar, Nabil Taresh, Arun Singh, Jerry Shields
Objective: To enable the participant to understand and incorporate into practice
recent developments in the diagnosis and management of retinoblastoma.
Summary of Content: Recent advances in the diagnosis and management of
retinoblastoma have significantly contributed to improved success in patient
survival, eye salvage, and optimal vision salvage. The new staging and grouping
systems are now clinically validated and well accepted. Modern management
strategies such as transpupillary thermotherapy, plaque brachytherapy,
chemoreduction and periocular chemotherapy have been effective in
improving eye and vision salvage. Selective intra-arterial chemotherapy has
shown promise and is an existing new development. Minimal manipulation
enucleation has been further optimized to enable harvesting a long optic nerve
stump and provide excellent cosmetic outcome. Adjuvant therapy in children
with histopathologic high-risk characteristics identified following enucleation
has reduced the risk of systemic metastasis. A multimodal protocol has been
effective in salvaging patients with orbital retinoblastoma. Genetic studies now
help in prenatal diagnosis and screening of siblings. The course will aim to
highlight the practical aspects in the current standard of care for retinoblastoma
and logically analyze recent developments.

Lamellar Corneal Surgery - Video Based Learning Course
What Will You Do?
Presenters: Rajesh Fogla, Ashish Nagpal, Quresh Maskati, Vikas Mittal
Presenter: Suhas Haldipurkar
In the era of modern day ophthalmic practice, no two ophthalmologists
will think the same way when it comes to managing a case which is not a
routine one. This session tries to bring out on the spot thinking, where you
are at the cross roads and want to take a call.
It will be fully interactive session with participation from the audience.
Panelist :
1. Dr. Suhas Haldipurkar
2. Dr. Arup Chakrabarti
3. Dr. Ramamurthy
4. Dr. Amar Agarwal
5. Dr. Mohan Rajan
6. Dr. Abhay Vasavada
7. Dr. Boris Malyugin
Objective: To update regarding recent advances in corneal transplantation surgery - Anterior and Posterior lamellar keratoplasty.
Summary of Content: Corneal transplantation surgery has witnessed
revolutionary change over the past decade. Anterior and posterior
lamellar surgical procedures have evolved which help selectively
replace dysfunctional layers of the cornea to restore structure and
function with improved eyesight. Full thickness keratoplasty is no
longer the first choice of surgical procedure for certain corneal
disorders. This video based course will cover all aspects of lamellar
corneal surgery, right from donor tissue preparation, step by step
approach of surgical procedures, managing complications, and surgery
in difficult situations. Course attendees will have an overview of both
anterior and posterior lamellar corneal surgical procedures, and will be
able to apply the knowledge gained in their clinical practice. Corneal
surgeons will be able to gain insight into details of surgical technique
which will help them make a smooth transition from full thickness
corneal transplantation surgery to lamellar corneal procedures.
Target Audience: Cornea sub specialists and general ophthalmologists

Low Vision Basics
Presenter: Sanjiv Desai
This is a basic level instruction course for ophthalmologists, which
focuses on imparting appropriate skills in clinical low vision. The
objective of the course is to impart skills in assessing low vision cases in
the clinic and how to dispense low vision aids [LVA]. It begins by
defining low vision and describing the common ophthalmic conditions
leading to low vision. Then the cardinal principles of treating low vision
are described, followed by exploring various types of optical and
non-optical low vision aids [LVA] available in the market to enhance
visual performance, their optics, their advantages and disadvantages
and how to use them. Finally the course is wound up by discussing how
to assess a low vision patient in the clinic and how to dispense low
vision aids. At the end of the course, participants will become proficient
in identifying and treating low vision cases in their day-to-day practice,
thus, integrating low vision care into their clinical practice.

Summary of Content: Manual small incision cataract surgery (SICS) offers
similar advantages of Phacoemulsification with the merits of
wider applicability, better safety, a shorter learning curve and lower cost. It
can be performed in almost all types of cataracts. Transition to phacoemulsification is easier if one has mastered manual SICS, as familiarity of steps
common to both technique helps reduce the incidence of complications.
The Important steps of making sclerocorneal pocket tunnel incision,
delivery of nucleus in to the anterior chamber and wound, implantation of
lens and wound closure would be discussed.
The different methods of nucleus delivery out of the AC by hydroexpression, visco-expression, vectis assisted delivery, or the fish-hook
technique would be explained.
An open minded approach and perseverance will ensure smooth learning
and eventual mastery.
Management and Prevention of Complications, occurring at each step of
surgery would be discussed.

Objectives: The course aims to instruct attendees about how to deal with a
patient with end-stage glaucoma in terms of clinical assessment of
diagnostic and progression parameters and various modalities of
treatment of such patient and the impact of treatment and disease
progression on visual prognosis.
Summary of Content: The course will discuss an important topic that
carries a major challenge in many regions of the world where a plenty of
patients are seen for the first time with a severe form of glaucoma
(end-stage). What are the criteria of defining advanced to end-stage
glaucoma, what further investigations should be performed for these
patients, evaluation of progression rates and continued visual loss.
Evaluation and visibility of medical treatment with its recent advances will
be addressed and adherence to treatment plan and follow-up schedule.
Surgical treatment of these patients will be discussed in details with
various techniques to achieve a very low target pressure, surgical hazards,
wipe out phenomenon, and long-term glaucoma stability versus
continued progression and visual loss in this highly advanced disease.

the conclusion of the course, attendees will be able to describe the
artificial irises that are available commercially. They will understand the
directions for use associated with each device. They will know which
devices are suitable for capsular bag implantation and which are suitable
for sulcus implantation with or without suture fixation. They will be able to
discuss how ocular comorbidities affect the choice of artificial iris to
implant. They will also be able to describe common intraoperative
problems and their solutions.
Summary of Content: The course will consist of a series of lectures covering
the various devices. Lectures will be supplemented by surgical video and
followed by discussion and opportunity for audience questions and
comments. The course is intended to focus on the â€œhow toâ€ so that
participants can take the information learned back to their practices and
immediately begin applying it.

Controversies in Management of Ocular Trauma
Presenters: Rupesh Agrawal, Ferenc Kuhn, Michael Grant, Celia Chen,
Gangadhara Sundar, Viktoria Mester, Lingam Gopal, Tarun Sharma
Objectives: Despite steady advances in surgical instrumentation and
technique, ophthalmic trauma continues to be a leading cause of visual
loss worldwide. Controversy persists over the optimal management of the
injured eye. Debate persists over surgical repair of severely traumatized
eyes with no light perception, use of prophylactic antibiotics either
systemic or intracameral or intravitreal, prophylactic cryopexy, and
prophylactic scleral buckling. The role and timing of vitrectomy surgery in
severe ocular trauma also remain topics of considerable debate, as does
the role of vitrectomy in the management of magnetic intraocular foreign
bodies. Similarly timing and optimal management of traumatic cataract
with intraocular lens implantation and corneal scar management is also
practice differently by different surgeons across the world. Management of
orbital fractures and lid and adnexal trauma is also area of considerable
debate. Role of intravenous methylprednisolone and optic canal
decompression in traumatic optic neuropathy is still controversial.
Pediatric ocular trauma management also involves lot of unresolved
debates.
Summary of Content: Each of these issues will be discussed, with particular
emphasis on conflicting views presented in the relevant literature along
with critical appraisal of existing international ocular trauma classification.
Course Level: Advanced.

Amblyopia Treatment: Review and New Advances
Presenter: Shucri Shawaf
Objective: To review the different modalities of amblyopia treatment and
conclude by putting together a clear approach for the treatment of
amblyopia.
Summary of Content: To review the different modalities of amblyopia
treatment and how they evolved through time, go over the major
amblyopia trials (including the Amblyopia Treatment Studies), present the
new advances (including the new software programs for the treatment of
amblyopia, one of which got the FDA approval), pin point some pitfalls to
avoid. This will include among others, the importance of a full exam to rule
out any organic cause, the parameters to prescribe eyeglasses in children,
when to start penalization (atropine versus patching), the amount of
patching required, how to avoid the social and psychological stigma in
children, stress on follow-ups for maintenance treatment. The attendees
should be able by the end of this course to deal with any case of amblyopia, use the different modalities of amblyopia treatment.

Objective: The aim of the course is to emphasize the need and the
methods for diagnostic exploration and management with regard to
underlying systemic disease in cases of uveitis (and scleritis), where the
first symptoms and signs of the disease presence concern the eye alone.
Summary of Content: The topics that will be presented and discussed in
the course include cases of scleritis, tuberculous and syphilitic uveitis,
Behcet disease, uveitis in juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, sarcoid uveitis and
retinal/choroidal vasculitis in systemic lupus erythematosus. Characteristic
cases, avoiding extremely easy or extremely uncommon ones, which
would be even though dismissed diagnostically, will be presented. In the
end, taking also into consideration the experience resulting from the
literature, guidelines are proposed based on analysis of the data in order to
extrapolate in similar cases in the future.

Management of Glaucoma in Difficult
Situations: Discussion of Representative Cases
Presenters: Vijaya Lingam, Shantha Balekudaru
Objective: To discuss the management options available for the
treatment of refractory glaucomas through the presentation of
representative difficult cases.
Summary of Content: Management of intractable glaucomas such as
neovascular glaucoma, glaucoma following vitreo-retinal surgery,
glaucoma following penetrating keratoplasty, malignant glaucoma
as well as glaucoma associated with keratoprostheses remains a
challenge to the glaucoma surgeon. Management of these problems
has shifted from the use of cyclodestructive procedures, to the use of
drainage devices which is the current treatment of choice in most
situations.
We plan to present 4 representative case scenarios of the various
subtypes of refractory glaucomas and discuss the problems in
diagnosis, surgical treatment and expected complications in each
case.
Target Audience: Glaucoma sub specialists

Objective: Have you ever found yourself in a situation were you have to
decide intraoperatively to change your routine in the bag intraocular lens
(IOL) implantation? Look no further, with this course you will have a
methodological and evidence based approach on how to deal with such
situations effectively.
Mon 20 Feb
Summary of Content: The most important techniques of IOL implantation
are described: trans-scleral fixation in the posterior chamber, anterior
chamber angle supported IOL implantation, sulcus fixation with or
without haptics/optic capture and anterior or posterior iris clip lenses are
described.
Step by step video instructions on how to plan and perform the above
thechniques. Management of intra and post operative complications.
Scientific evidence on how to select the most appropriate surgical
approach as well as literature support.

Education Without Borders: The Future for Young Ophthalmologists
Objective: To provide an engaging platform for discussion of important
international education issues with a young ophthalmologist audience.
Target Audience/educational level: Young Ophthalmologists
This symposium/course has been developed jointly by the YO (young
ophthalmologist) committees of MEACO, SOE and AAO. The theme for the
session is education, the issues young ophthalmologists across the
globalising world are now facing, and how best to make the most of
opportunities, and face challenges.
The session will take the form of a chat-show, hosted by a MEACO
representative, and speakers will be the guests on the chat-show. Each
topic will be addressed primarily using a question and answer session.
This will provide an entertaining and engaging format to present esoteric
but important issues to a young audience.
The session topics will be:
• Setting up residency programmes in the Middle East - The Arab Board
• Opportunities and resources available for establishing residency
programmes
• European Board of Ophthalmology - Europe harmonising ophthalmic
education
• Arranging a fellowship abroad - pearls and pitfalls
• Surgical training - how do we set the standards?
• Modern social media in ophthalmology

Presenters: Satyamyrthy Kodur, Ramamurthy D, Amar Agarwal, Ramesh Gampa
Synopsis: In all those patients who are not suitable for Lasik or surface
ablation due to thin cornea various options such as phakic IOL implantation and refractive lens exchange are available. Implantation of collamar
lens in the posterior chamber is an ideal and easier choice in these
patients. This course is aimed at simplifying the Implantable Contact Lens
(ICL) implantation and optimizing the outcome and it also deals with
material and design of ICL , indications, contra indications & patient
selection ,pre operative preparation, surgical technique of implanting
spherical and toric ICL and ICL complications.
Objective: At the conclusion of the course, the attendee will have a
comprehensive knowledge of ICL implantation which will provide the
refractive surgeon confidence to adopt the technique in practice.

Childhood Proptosis: Evaluation and Management
Objective: To familiarize the attendee with common benign and malignant
processes that can affect the orbit in children with an emphasis on the
systematic and practical approach for the work-up and treatment of
proptosis.
Summary of Content: Proptosis describes eye prominence due to space
occupying orbital lesions. Proptosis in children is a hallmark of orbital
diseases requiring thoughtful investigation. While acquired lesions may
present at the end of first decade of life, congenital lesions usually present
early in life. Some of the common causes of proptosis in children include
cystic lesions, orbital cellulitis and pseudotumor, less common are optic
nerve gliomas and meningiomas. Rhabdomyosarcoma can present with
acute proptosis. Secondary orbital processes invade the orbit from
adjacent structures. Distant metastases include neuroblastoma and
Ewing's sarcoma. Although many orbital processes can be diagnosed by
history, examination and imaging studies, ultimate diagnosis rests upon
pathological diagnoses. The course will cover illustrative clinical cases that
may include, the most common benign, malignant and metatstatic
processes faced by general as well as subspecialists encountring such
patients.
Educational Level: Beginning, intermediate.

Polypoidal Choroidal Vasculopathy - All You Need to Know!
Presenters: Ian Wong, Wico Lai, David Wong
Objectives: To highlight the clinical features, diagnostic criteria, treatment
strategies, and future developments in polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy
(PCV).
Summary of Content: PCV is characterized by recurrent subretinal pigment
epithelial hemorrhages. Before indocyanine-green angiography (ICG)
imaging was popular, PCV was sometimes misdiagnosed as neovascular
age-related macular degeneration (AMD). With the advent of imaging
modalities and deeper understandings of the disease, PCV is now
recognized as a separate entity, with its own unique profile of clinical
manifestations. Treatment strategy towards PCV has been revolutionized
by recent clinical trials using combination therapy with ranibizumab and
verteporfin. Currently, significant differences exist between treatment for
PCV and neovascular AMD. There is a clear need in distinguishing PCV from
neovascular AMD.
Clinical photos, ICG findings, and optical coherence tomography scans will
be used to illustrate real cases. Small quiz towards end of course will help
audience fortify knowledge acquired.
At the conclusion of this course, the audience will be able to distinguish a
case of PCV, from a case of neovascular AMD. They will know how to
formulate treatment strategies for a new case of PCV, and the most
up-to-date evidences involved.

Management of Complex Strabismus Situations
Presenters: Ramakrishnan, Venkateshwar Rao Bhoompally, Rajesh P, Sandra Ganeshrabu
Objective: Strabismus surgery, though appears simple and straightforward,
is not so in all situations. There are some complex situations in strabismus
where surgical plans becomes really challenging. This symposium will
discuss few of such complex scenarios.
Summary of Contents: Management of Consecutive deviations and
resurgeries in strabismus is really challenging. The exact plan and outcome
depends on various factors like previous surgical procedures done,
adhesions etc. This discussion will be followed by the talk on Transposition
Procedures. Muscle transposition is indicated in cases like Double Elevator
Palsy, Nerve palsies etc. The surgical plan, chances of post operative
anterior segment Ischemia etc has to be kept in mind. Vessel sparing
procedures will also be discussed in this context. Many of these complex
strabismus do better with adjustable suture technique and the next talk
will focus on this. Vertical, restrictive and pattern strabismus needs special
mention and we will discuss management issues in the above situations
with case examples.
