Strauss Curriculum Drawings • Free hand drawings to be used to illustrate key principles • Best if used in the operating theatre for discussion • Use in conjunction with the MSICS curriculum Chapter 4 section 1, C.
Tunnel Architecture -Note the suspension bridge-like configuration -Note the limbal straddling
One way valve effect of the tunnel -Note 3 step configuration -Note importance of intraocular pressure to close the valve -Note use of external groove as the point to stabilize the tunnel if pressure is low
Funnel effect of the tunnel -Note tendency of central tunnel to sag open -Note the external opening is a shorter chord length then internal
Tunnel fulcrum for instruments -AC maintenance requires respecting internal opening as a fulcrum -minimize internal opening
Nulceus dislocation into AC -note rounded side of nucleus acts as pivot point -note downward pressure with rotation will dislocate nucleus into AC -note adequate capsulotomy is needed
Capsulotomy technique -note advantage of centripetal vs centrifugal tears -note capsulorhexis-like tear maneuvers -note large size of capsulotomy
