25 Gauge Sutureless Vitrectomy
Author: Dr Hussain Nazimul
Year of Publication: 2005
Duration: 07:54 min
This training video on sutureless vitrectomy illustrates the steps of this safe and feasible technique for a variety of retinal disorders. While it is already proven to be effective and advantageous in certain conditions, sutureless vitrectomy probably requires more modification and innovation of instruments as well as experience to further its use. The greatest advantage is felicity of use in paediatric cases, the immediate post-operative recovery time, decreased entry-exit time, good cosmetic appearance and decreased post-operative inflammation.

The clinical features and management of acute retinal necrosis (ARN), a potentially blinding disorder are highlighted in this video. ARN, an infectious retinitis caused by a Herpes virus is encountered mainly in immunocompetent hosts. The clinical features that differentiate it from other infectious retinitis diseases, its appropriate medical management and practical surgical pearls have been highlighted.
Dye-Enhanced Vitreous Surgery for Macular Hole
Author: Dr Das Taraprasad
Year of Publication: August 2001
Duration: 17:00 minutes
This new and innovative surgery demonstrates the preparation and use of dye to stain the vitreous and the ILM or internal limiting membrane. Staining with Sodium Fluorescein dye for clear vitreous is demonstrated in idiopathic macular hole surgery. A second surgery demonstrates the use of Indocyanine Green to stain the ILM in a case of macular hole secondary to vasculitis.

Intraocular Cysticercosis

TRT: 06:42 min
Year of Publication: 2005
This video describes the clinical features, diagnostic modalities, medical and surgical intervention of intraocular cysticercosis. Though believed to be common in people belonging to the lower socio economic strata due to consumption of ill-cooked pork, it occurs among vegetarians as well. Adnexal and intraocular forms of the disease have been demonstrated. The surgical management of the intraocular form of the disease has been highlighted.
Membrane Dissection in Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy with Pre-Macular Fibrosis
Author: Dr Majji Ajit Babu
Duration: 08:14 min
Year of Publication: May 2005 (PDR)
A patient with proliferative diabetic retinopathy with pre-macular fibrosis does well with surgical intervention. A healthy retina underlying the area of dense pre-macular fibrosis is the main reason for good outcomes in this group of patients. In this surgical video, we demonstrate the procedure on a patient with complex pre-macular fibrosis with poor pre-operative visual acuity. A clear dissection of the membrane is achieved with minimal bleeding when the plane of dissection is good.
Scleral Buckling for Beginners

Year of Publication: 2003
TRT: 22:56 minutes
The video explains the surgical procedure of scleral buckling and discusses the likely cases in which it can be performed. Conjunctival peritomy, tenon separation, rectus muscle isolation, cryopexy application, scleral buckle size estimation, passage of suture and encircling band, SRF drainage and passing of scleral buckle are presented in detail.
Simple Vitrectomy for Beginners
Author: Dr Majji Ajit Babu
Year of Publication: March 2000
Duration: 13:46 minutes
This surgical video begins by illustrating the preparation of the conjunctival flap and sclerotomy sites, and goes on to show the stages of Endoillumination, core vitrectomy and posterior vitrectomy, followed by closure of sclerotomy ports and conjunctival closure. The video is compulsory viewing for all those who wish to learn the basics of vitrectomy.
Surgical Intervention for Vitreo-Macular Traction and Role of Optical Coherence Tomography in Surgical Planning
Author: Dr Majji Ajit Babu
Duration: 07:48 min
Year of Publication: May 2005 (NPDR)
This video demonstrates the importance of planning the surgical approach based on the pre-operative optical coherence tomography (OCT) results, when vitreo-macular traction is the cause of decreased vision. The use of a bent MVR knife is shown to be a highly cost-effective method for the management of a posterior hyaloid.
