Failed Graft-Never Say Die!

Synopsis: Almost third of the grafts (penetrating/lamellar) fail. A repeat surgery is needed for restoring vision. Repeat penetrating keratoplasty (PK) has an increased risk of failure. In contrast, an endothelial keratoplasty (DSEK) in such cases more predictable outcomes and advantages in terms of freedom from sutures, reduced steroid dependency and reduced follow up. Even DSEK may undergo failure. In such cases, a repeat DSEK or a PK is needed. Each procedure has its own pros and cons. There is sparse literature regarding outcomes of such surgery. Despite multiple attempts, graft failure may be inevitable in some cases. Keratoprosthesis may be an answer to this. The criteria for selection of the procedure, technique, post operative medication and follow up vary for each one of them. A repeat DSEK requires modi�cations in standard technique. All these have bearing on the �nal outcome and prognosis.

Objective: At the end of the course, the attendee will be familiar with the indications, surgical modalities and modi�cations, follow up and bene�ts-risks of repeat graft (PK, DSEK and Keratoprosthesis) for graft failure.

Uveitis: Basic Understanding and Diagnostic Approaches Made Easy

Objective: To provide a basic understanding of the disease processes and to discuss a prudent and user friendly approach to the di�erential diagnosis of Uveitic entities.

Summary of Content: Uveitis is a heterogeneous group of ocular in�ammatory conditions with varied presentations and often a sight threatening prognosis. The instruction course begins by elucidating a basic understanding of the underlying disease processes. Disease entities are grouped into predominantly in�ammatory/ immunological, infectious with potential for hypersensitivity, purely infectious states in either normal or immuno-compromised hosts and masquerade syndromes. Next, rational use of basic, advanced and supportive laboratory investigations along with their potential redundancy and fallacies is discussed, followed by the role of ancillary tests. Finally, the indications and techniques of invasive diagnostic interventions is elaborated.


Educational Level: Beginners and those at intermediate level.

Increased Test-Retest Variability Typically Precedes De�nite Glaucomatous Field Defects in Early Glaucoma

Sat 18 Feb Capital Suite 15 CO-GLA-SA 179

IS-VID-SA 18008:30 - 10:00

Presenter: Tutul Chakravarti

Early �eld loss is often represented by a region of variable responses rather than by a localized deep scotoma. Increased local �uctuations typically precede de�nite glaucomatous �eld defects in early glaucoma in a set of subjects with 1) ocular hypertension, 2) Primary Angle Closure and 3) glaucoma suspects who converted to glaucoma with early localized defects. The conversion to glaucoma is a reproducible glaucomatous �eld defect at the moment of their conversion in Automated Perimetry. This retrospective chart reviews 129 cases (256 charts; 243 OHT+9 PAC+4 glaucoma suspects).Participants were tested once half-yearly and followed up 4-7 years. Early defects manifested as increased variable responses in a�ected areas of 9 charts out of 31 converted charts (25 converted patients).Variability occurs mostly at pathological points in those 9 charts. Test-retest variability increases in the areas �nally becoming de�nitely abnormal and representing warning signs of absolute defects.

Changing Trends in Trabeculectomy Video Assisted Skill Transfer Course

Sat 18 Feb Capital Suite 4CO-GLA-SA 20010:30 - 12:00

Presenters: Ganesh Venkataraman, Sathyan Parthasarathi, Ramakrishnan Rengappa

Objective: To highlight various modi�cations associated with trabeculectomy and their outcomes.

Summary of Content: Trabeculectomy, the guarded �lteration surgery, has been a gold standard in glaucoma surgery for the last 5-6 decades. If performed properly it helps to lower intraocular pressure without any adverse e�ects. Complications of trabeculectomy occur even in the hands of the expert. To enhance success rates additional modi�ca-tions are in vogue. These modi�cations have not caught on uniformly amongst the practising ophthalmologist. In this video instruction course we describe the various modi�cations (preparation and use of cytocidal and cytotoxic antimetabolites, Type 2 ologen collagen matrix implant, various releasable suture techniques and the newer express shunt) along with tips for safe surgery for optimal outcome of trabeculectomy.

Target Audience: Practicing ophthalmologist, Residents

Retinoblastoma - They Live and See!

Sat 18 Feb Capital Suite 9 CO-ONC-SA 22713:30 - 15:00

Presenters: Santosh Honavar, Nabil Taresh, Arun Singh, Jerry Shields

Objective: To enable the participant to understand and incorporate into practice recent developments in the diagnosis and management of retinoblastoma.

Summary of Content: Recent advances in the diagnosis and management of retinoblastoma have signi�cantly contributed to improved success in patient survival, eye salvage, and optimal vision salvage. The new staging and grouping systems are now clinically validated and well accepted. Modern management strategies such as transpupillary thermotherapy, plaque brachytherapy, chemoreduction and periocular chemotherapy have been e�ective in improving eye and vision salvage. Selective intra-arterial chemotherapy has shown promise and is an existing new development. Minimal manipulation enucleation has been further optimized to enable harvesting a long optic nerve stump and provide excellent cosmetic outcome. Adjuvant therapy in children with histopathologic high-risk characteristics identi�ed following enucleation has reduced the risk of systemic metastasis. A multimodal protocol has been e�ective in salvaging patients with orbital retinoblastoma. Genetic studies now help in prenatal diagnosis and screening of siblings. The course will aim to highlight the practical aspects in the current standard of care for retinoblastoma and logically analyze recent developments.

Target Audience: General Ophthalmologists, Ocular Oncologists and Retina Specialists

It will be fully interactive session with participation from the audience.

Panelist :1. Dr. Suhas Haldipurkar 2. Dr. Arup Chakrabarti 3. Dr. Ramamurthy 4. Dr. Amar Agarwal 5. Dr. Mohan Rajan 6. Dr. Abhay Vasavada 7. Dr. Boris Malyugin

Lamellar Corneal Surgery - Video Based Learning Course

Sat 18 Feb Capital Suite 4 CO-COR-SA 24815:30 - 17:00

Presenters: Rajesh Fogla, Ashish Nagpal, Quresh Maskati, Vikas Mittal

Objective: To update regarding recent advances in corneal transplanta-tion surgery - Anterior and Posterior lamellar keratoplasty.

Summary of Content: Corneal transplantation surgery has witnessed revolutionary change over the past decade. Anterior and posterior lamellar surgical procedures have evolved which help selectively replace dysfunctional layers of the cornea to restore structure and function with improved eyesight. Full thickness keratoplasty is no longer the �rst choice of surgical procedure for certain corneal disorders. This video based course will cover all aspects of lamellar corneal surgery, right from donor tissue preparation, step by step approach of surgical procedures, managing complications, and surgery in di�cult situations. Course attendees will have an overview of both anterior and posterior lamellar corneal surgical procedures, and will be able to apply the knowledge gained in their clinical practice. Corneal surgeons will be able to gain insight into details of surgical technique which will help them make a smooth transition from full thickness corneal transplantation surgery to lamellar corneal procedures.

Target Audience: Cornea sub specialists and general ophthalmologists

Low Vision Basics

Sat 18 Feb Capital Suite 9 CO-LOW-SA 25115:30 - 17:00

Presenter: Sanjiv Desai

This is a basic level instruction course for ophthalmologists, which focuses on imparting appropriate skills in clinical low vision. The objective of the course is to impart skills in assessing low vision cases in the clinic and how to dispense low vision aids [LVA]. It begins by de�ning low vision and describing the common ophthalmic conditions leading to low vision. Then the cardinal principles of treating low vision are described, followed by exploring various types of optical and non-optical low vision aids [LVA] available in the market to enhance visual performance, their optics, their advantages and disadvantages and how to use them. Finally the course is wound up by discussing how to assess a low vision patient in the clinic and how to dispense low vision aids. At the end of the course, participants will become pro�cient in identifying and treating low vision cases in their day-to-day practice, thus, integrating low vision care into their clinical practice.

Controversies in Management of Ocular Trauma


Objectives: Despite steady advances in surgical instrumentation and technique, ophthalmic trauma continues to be a leading cause of visual loss worldwide. Controversy persists over the optimal management of the injured eye. Debate persists over surgical repair of severely traumatized eyes with no light perception, use of prophylactic antibiotics either systemic or intracameral or intravitreal, prophylactic cryopexy, and prophylactic scleral buckling. The role and timing of vitrectomy surgery in severe ocular trauma also remain topics of considerable debate, as does the role of vitrectomy in the management of magnetic intraocular foreign bodies. Similarly timing and optimal management of traumatic cataract with intraocular lens implantation and corneal scar management is also practice di�erently by di�erent surgeons across the world. Management of orbital fractures and lid and adnexal trauma is also area of considerable debate. Role of intravenous methylprednisolone and optic canal decompression in traumatic optic neuropathy is still controversial. Pediatric ocular trauma management also involves lot of unresolved debates.

Summary of Content: Each of these issues will be discussed, with particular emphasis on con�icting views presented in the relevant literature along with critical appraisal of existing international ocular trauma classi�cation.

Target Audience: Subspecialists

Course Level: Advanced.

Amblyopia Treatment: Review and New Advances

Sun 19 Feb Capital Suite 8 CO-STR-SU 32413:30 - 15:00

Presenter: Shucri Shawaf

Objective: To review the di�erent modalities of amblyopia treatment and conclude by putting together a clear approach for the treatment of amblyopia.

Summary of Content: To review the di�erent modalities of amblyopia treatment and how they evolved through time, go over the major amblyopia trials (including the Amblyopia Treatment Studies), present the new advances (including the new software programs for the treatment of amblyopia, one of which got the FDA approval), pin point some pitfalls to avoid. This will include among others, the importance of a full exam to rule out any organic cause, the parameters to prescribe eyeglasses in children, when to start penalization (atropine versus patching), the amount of patching required, how to avoid the social and psychological stigma in children, stress on follow-ups for maintenance treatment. The attendees should be able by the end of this course to deal with any case of amblyo-pia, use the di�erent modalities of amblyopia treatment.

Management of Glaucoma in Di�cult Situations: Discussion of Representative Cases

Sun 19 Feb Capital Suite 15FR-RET-SU 349 CO-GLA-SU 35015:30 - 17:00

Presenters: Vijaya Lingam, Shantha Balekudaru

Objective: To discuss the management options available for the treatment of refractory glaucomas through the presentation of representative di�cult cases.

Summary of Content: Management of intractable glaucomas such as neovascular glaucoma, glaucoma following vitreo-retinal surgery, glaucoma following penetrating keratoplasty, malignant glaucoma as well as glaucoma associated with keratoprostheses remains a challenge to the glaucoma surgeon. Management of these problems has shifted from the use of cyclodestructive procedures, to the use of drainage devices which is the current treatment of choice in most situations.

We plan to present 4 representative case scenarios of the various subtypes of refractory glaucomas and discuss the problems in diagnosis, surgical treatment and expected complications in each case.

Target Audience: Glaucoma sub specialists

Education Without Borders: The Future for Young Ophthalmologists

Mon 20 Feb Capital Suite 4 CO-EDU-MO 37108:30 - 10:00

Presenters: Anthony Khawaja, Manal Taryam, Sanjay Kedhar

Objective: To provide an engaging platform for discussion of important international education issues with a young ophthalmologist audience.

Target Audience/educational level: Young Ophthalmologists

This symposium/course has been developed jointly by the YO (young ophthalmologist) committees of MEACO, SOE and AAO. The theme for the session is education, the issues young ophthalmologists across the globalising world are now facing, and how best to make the most of opportunities, and face challenges.

The session will take the form of a chat-show, hosted by a MEACO representative, and speakers will be the guests on the chat-show. Each topic will be addressed primarily using a question and answer session. This will provide an entertaining and engaging format to present esoteric but important issues to a young audience.

The session topics will be:• Setting up residency programmes in the Middle East - The Arab Board • Opportunities and resources available for establishing residency programmes• European Board of Ophthalmology - Europe harmonising ophthalmic education• Arranging a fellowship abroad - pearls and pitfalls• Surgical training - how do we set the standards?• Modern social media in ophthalmology

Childhood Proptosis: Evaluation and Management

Mon 20 Feb Capital Suite 6 CO-PED-MO 37208:30 - 10:00

Presenters: Imtiaz Chaudhry, Arif Khan, Adel Alsuhaibani, Yonca Arat

Objective: To familiarize the attendee with common benign and malignant processes that can a�ect the orbit in children with an emphasis on the systematic and practical approach for the work-up and treatment of proptosis.

Summary of Content: Proptosis describes eye prominence due to space occupying orbital lesions. Proptosis in children is a hallmark of orbital diseases requiring thoughtful investigation. While acquired lesions may present at the end of �rst decade of life, congenital lesions usually present early in life. Some of the common causes of proptosis in children include cystic lesions, orbital cellulitis and pseudotumor, less common are optic nerve gliomas and meningiomas. Rhabdomyosarcoma can present with acute proptosis. Secondary orbital processes invade the orbit from adjacent structures. Distant metastases include neuroblastoma and Ewing's sarcoma. Although many orbital processes can be diagnosed by history, examination and imaging studies, ultimate diagnosis rests upon pathological diagnoses. The course will cover illustrative clinical cases that may include, the most common benign, malignant and metatstatic processes faced by general as well as subspecialists encountring such patients.

Target Audience: General ophthalmologists and subspecialists

Educational Level: Beginning, intermediate.

Optimizing the Outcome with Posterior Chamber Phakic IOL ( ICL) Implantation for Refractive Errors with Thin Cornea

Mon 20 Feb Capital Suite 8 CO-REF-MO 37308:30 - 10:00

Presenters: Satyamyrthy Kodur, Ramamurthy D, Amar Agarwal, Ramesh Gampa

Synopsis: In all those patients who are not suitable for Lasik or surface ablation due to thin cornea various options such as phakic IOL implanta-tion and refractive lens exchange are available. Implantation of collamar lens in the posterior chamber is an ideal and easier choice in these patients. This course is aimed at simplifying the Implantable Contact Lens (ICL) implantation and optimizing the outcome and it also deals with material and design of ICL , indications, contra indications & patient selection ,pre operative preparation, surgical technique of implanting spherical and toric ICL and ICL complications. Objective: At the conclusion of the course, the attendee will have a comprehensive knowledge of ICL implantation which will provide the refractive surgeon con�dence to adopt the technique in practice.

Management of Complex Strabismus Situations

Mon 20 Feb Capital Suite 8 CO-STR-MO 41613:30 - 15:00

Presenters: Ramakrishnan, Venkateshwar Rao Bhoompally, Rajesh P, Sandra Ganeshrabu

Objective: Strabismus surgery, though appears simple and straightforward, is not so in all situations. There are some complex situations in strabismus where surgical plans becomes really challenging. This symposium will discuss few of such complex scenarios. Summary of Contents: Management of Consecutive deviations and resurgeries in strabismus is really challenging. The exact plan and outcome depends on various factors like previous surgical procedures done, adhesions etc. This discussion will be followed by the talk on Transposition Procedures. Muscle transposition is indicated in cases like Double Elevator Palsy, Nerve palsies etc. The surgical plan, chances of post operative anterior segment Ischemia etc has to be kept in mind. Vessel sparing procedures will also be discussed in this context. Many of these complex strabismus do better with adjustable suture technique and the next talk will focus on this. Vertical, restrictive and pattern strabismus needs special mention and we will discuss management issues in the above situations with case examples.



Polypoidal Choroidal Vasculopathy - All You Need to Know!

Mon 20 Feb Capital Suite 6 CO-RET-MO 41513:30 - 15:00

Presenters: Ian Wong, Wico Lai, David Wong

Objectives: To highlight the clinical features, diagnostic criteria, treatment strategies, and future developments in polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV).

Summary of Content: PCV is characterized by recurrent subretinal pigment epithelial hemorrhages. Before indocyanine-green angiography (ICG) imaging was popular, PCV was sometimes misdiagnosed as neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD). With the advent of imaging modalities and deeper understandings of the disease, PCV is now recognized as a separate entity, with its own unique pro�le of clinical manifestations. Treatment strategy towards PCV has been revolutionized by recent clinical trials using combination therapy with ranibizumab and vertepor�n. Currently, signi�cant di�erences exist between treatment for PCV and neovascular AMD. There is a clear need in distinguishing PCV from neovascular AMD. Clinical photos, ICG �ndings, and optical coherence tomography scans will be used to illustrate real cases. Small quiz towards end of course will help audience fortify knowledge acquired. At the conclusion of this course, the audience will be able to distinguish a case of PCV, from a case of neovascular AMD. They will know how to formulate treatment strategies for a new case of PCV, and the most up-to-date evidences involved.
