Cary M. Silverman, MD

Show Description +

Cary M. Silverman, MD, shares a tip for preventing impending suction loss during femtosecond laser treatment. In this case, a bubble begins to form during lens fragmentation so Dr. Silverman quickly pinches the vacuum hosing tube to prevent the bubble from growing and turns on the treatment overlay to ensure the bubble does not encroach the treatment areas.
