Divide-and-Conquer With Phaco Chop Adaptations

Erin Ong, MD, Jorge Arroyo, MD, MPH

Show Description +

Erin Ong, MD, demonstrates a divide-and-conquer technique for phacoemulsification. The patient had moderate nuclear sclerosis. Throughout the procedure, she discusses how her technique evolves based on whether or not she utilizes femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS). In non-FLACS cases, she opts for phaco chop, popularized by David Chang, MD. This video provides insights for surgeons on how to dynamically adjust techniques depending on the technology available and the patient’s specific needs.
