Advanced Cataract Surgery- "In Simple English"

[MrFreud98]

Looks very dangerous.

[Lotsofpie2222]

@MrFreud98 Look at some damn eye neoplasmic surgery and then say that this looks dangerous

[hertzman5YT]

@Lotsofpie2222 This is pussy compared to that.

[Lotsofpie2222]

@hertzman5YT exactly

@aquenwisey ...yes most do ..the doctor explained that since my boy was a premature twin this condition is common. He's actually one of the few that aren't born with more sirious conditions. Some are born with heart, lung or even kidney conditions.Our kids are 5 years old.

[guero74]

@psp10004 Some people don't belive science/medicine should be mixed.My son had his surgery done two days ago .The Dr. Said that he had some complication that only in surgery he'd be able to see how serious they were.We didn't know how far back he had this condition and if he be able to see ok again.The surgery was suposed to take an hour from the time they took him in and it took four hours.The doctor came out and said he was awwed that what he saw at the exams had disapered .Prayer works belive

[aquenwisey]

@guero74 praying works, too bad that if you talk about praying someone might get angry

[guero74]

My boy is 5 years old on is gonna have this surgery done...I hope and pray it goes this easy and good for him...thanks for the video

[psp10004]

@guero74 Pray? how can praying help the surgeon?

[ableite]

@psp10004 bah. dont tell me you are the one who is going to define that, Mr. "I know everything".

[aquenwisey]

@guero74 dont cataracts appear when you are old?

The patient was under conscious sedation or so called "twilight" sleep. We can adjust it so patients can either be more awake during surgery or more sedated. In either case, they feel nothing.

That little bubble at the end of the surgery is harmless and evaporates shortly.

[davemckenzie1]

They left a bubble in the eye

[001KBJ]

is the patient unconsious

[toytoy1692]

@wmshprd I recently got a new doctor and now they actually know what their doing. So I should be getting the surgery in no time. But my case is more serious and sensitive then any other cataract thou that's why.

[riotofdablood]

eye surgery in 5 min !! now thats cool

[toytoy1692]

I'm 17 and I've had a cataract in my right rye since I was 15 and still haven't had surgery because oft dumbass doctors.

[wmshprd]

@toytoy1692 You don't know what you're missing.. you should talk to someone to reassure you.. You have your whole life ahead of you.. don't wast it.

[JieriCian]

Oh fuck, my eyes are crying.

[dirkfour4]

just had it done...amazing stuff....no pain folks...inside 10 minutes in and out

[sdfefde]

FUCKING HELL OMFG

[brxbrx1]

It's not as entertaining with that suction thing as it is watching the surgery pull it out bit by bit, but I suppose entertainment isn't the point!

[unholyjuggalo17]

you left a bubble in his eye

[Ruhhr]

My eye hurt the entire time watching this.

[ferolcat2009]

Its very reassuring and a pleasure to watch a skilled professional eye surgeon at work..

[bubbagump121661st]

The patient was in twilight sleep with a little IV sedation. It is very short acting and they are soon up and alert minutes after surgery. No worries about the air bubbles. They are normal to see and resorb in no time.

[levarfan]

Thanks. My dad is having this done soon and the video is very reassuring. Was the patient completely awake during the procedure? Also, I found myself worrying about the little bubble that was left at the end (see 4:55 at about 11 o'clock). Will that just disappear?

[RelaxingMusic212]

im getting this done in 2days , it doesent seem bad

[CocoJoubert]

thanks for sharing this video!

[bubbagump121661st]

You're welcome. It's nice to hear all the positive feedback!

[sk8rguy4life1123]

when you remove the "pulp" does the patient go blind for that moment

[bubbagump121661st]

No.  The patient is blurry throughout the procedure but not blind. All ones sees are lights like a kaleidescope. It's very beautiful according to patients!

[moneyinthebank14344]

hi,does this hurt?

[myhickle1]

@moneyinthebank14344 no my mom had to get it done and they num it

[moneyinthebank14344]
