Surgical management of cataracts has completely revolved from mere removal of cataracts by ICCE to full range spectacle-free visual outcome by phacoemulsification surgery with the implantation of latest generation multifocal or accommodative IOL implants. Keeping this view in consideration, this book is planned to provide useful practical tips of surgical technique and comprehensive platform coupled with the inherent flavor of theoretical concepts to the readers, particularly to the young ophthalmologists, postgraduate students, and postdoctoral fellows.

Chapters on the latest designs of accommodative IOL implants as well as on advanced phacoemulsifier machines have been incorporated to maintain the pace with the rapid advancements in the subject. The book also provides knowledge on the concurrent surgical procedures in which phacoemulsification surgery is clubbed with other surgical procedures like trabeculectomy, glaucoma valve, corneal transplant, and VR surgery as well. An exhaustive and analytical approach to cataracts associated with other complex ocular problems like congenital anomalies, traumatic subluxated cataracts, ARMO, postuveitic, and post-refractive surgery status is suitably provided a special place in the text. Illustrations of rare complications like opacification of acrylic Iol implant will definitely be an interesting topic for the newer generation of phaco surgeons. This book provides many nuggets of advice and information that the readers would be hard-pressed to find.
