    Threading a Needle

    By Terry Kim, MD
    Annual Meeting 2013
    Cataract/Anterior Segment

    In this segment of the Spotlight on Cataract Complications, Dr. Terry Kim shares a case of a patient with progressive zonulopathy and a subluxated lens. Dr. Kim supports the capsule using 2 capsule retractors and a tension ring, but at the end of an otherwise unevenful case, he realizes the CTR is unexpectedly looped through one of the retractors. He chooses to cut the retractor after trying unsuccessfully to untangle it.

    The video symposium features 18 cataract experts who present their most challenging and unique surgical complications and the lessons they learned.
