Digitally assisted three-dimensional surgery – Beyond vitreous

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the application and safety of three-dimensional (3D) visualization system in varied anterior segment procedures and Scleral Buckle. Methods: This was a prospective observational study of 313 eyes. Patients undergoing phacoemulsification (PE) with intrao...

description Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the application and safety of three-dimensional (3D) visualization system in varied anterior segment procedures and Scleral Buckle. Methods: This was a prospective observational study of 313 eyes. Patients undergoing phacoemulsification (PE) with intraocular lens (IOL), trabeculectomies, glaucoma triple procedure (GTP), scleral fixated (SF) IOL, and scleral buckle (SB) were included in the study. Cases were randomly distributed in 3D visualization system (learning and post-learning phase) and conventional microscope group. Parameters studied were complications (intraoperative and early postoperative), surgical outcomes, and surgeon's perspective on various parameters (through a validated questionnaire) like surgical time, time lag, learning curve, ease of doing various steps and its value as an educational tool, for both groups [Questionnaires 1 and 2]. Results: Complications rates were not different in two groups. Surgical outcomes (anatomical and physiological) were similar in both the groups. Mean duration of surgery in PE+IOL, Trabeculectomy, GTP in learning stage by 3D was significantly higher than Microscope, which became insignificant in postlearning stage. For, SB and SFIOL, duration between two groups were insignificantly different. There was significant learning struggle in PE+IOL, SB, and Trabeculectomy. Image resolution, depth perception, illumination and postural comfort was graded higher for 3D surgery across the stages. Time lag, poor color contrast, and field of view were appreciated during the learning stage. Educational relevance of 3D was higher, as appreciated by resident and nurses. Conclusion: 3D surgery is as safe, faster, and predictable after initial learning struggle. Even in anterior segment procedure, no apparent lag was appreciated after learning curve.
