His video instruction courses for phaco chop and complicated cataracts have consistently ranked among the best attended and top rated at the American Academy of Ophthalmology and American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgeons meetings for over a decade. The Four Main Sections inside the Second Edition: Phaco Chop Techniques Phacodynamics of Chopping Femtosecond Laser Nuclear Pre-Chopping Complicated Cases and Complications – Strategies and Management Section One is a detailed guide for learning phaco chop. The faculty from Dr. Chang’s popular phaco chop course outlines their pearls based upon extensive experience teaching residents and transitioning surgeons. Section Two provides the general principles of instrumentation and configuring machine parameters. Separate chapters specifically address optimizing the Infiniti, Signature, and Stellaris platforms for chopping. Section Three introduces femtosecond laser nuclear pre chopping with separate chapters on the LenSx, LensAR, and Optimedica platforms. Section Four covers small pupils and IFIS, rock hard and white mature cataracts, weak zonules, and extremely long and short eyes with an emphasis on managing posterior capsule rupture, advanced IOL fixation strategies, and avoiding and managing capsulorrhexis complications.

Book excerpt: Phaco Chop: Mastering Techniques, Optimizing Technology, and Avoiding Complications covers everything from step-by-step instruction for the beginner to advanced chopping for complicated cases or bimanual phaco.

"Skip" Nichamin, MD; and Barry S. Seibel, MD outline their pearls based upon years of experience in teaching residents and transitioning surgeons. The second section is devoted to the phacodynamics of chopping-the general principles of instrumentation and configuring machine parameters. As a unique feature, four separate chapters are specifically devoted to optimizing the Legacy, Infiniti, Sovereign, and Millennium machines for chopping. Strategies for managing complicated cases and complications comprise the primary focus for the third section. While chopping techniques are particularly advantageous for complicated cataracts, they must be integrated with other devices and strategies. Newer strategies for posterior capsule rupture include the Viscoat PAL, Viscoat Trap, and the pars plana anterior vitrectomy. These options are relevant for any phaco surgeon, regardless of technique or experience. The last section explores a topic that is generating growing interest - bimanual phaco. This is a promising and advanced application that combines phaco chop with the latest innovations in micro-incisional phaco technology.
