Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported by the user facility in the united kingdom that during the case the eye became hard due to high pressure causing the iris to prolapse.When checked the infusion pressure was set to 35mmhg.The iris was redeposited successfully and the anterior chamber reformed.Surgery was completed safely, but the iop fluctuations did compromise the corneal view to some extent making the later stages of the membrane peel more challenging.I wasn¿t timing the surgery, but the vitrectomy cutter is inefficient and the gel trimming took longer than it should have.A small volume of anesthesia top-up was needed.Apart from a slightly dilated pupil, even following miochol-e, the eye is quiet with a normal iop.
