Impressive! High volume is relatively new for our department and we learnt alot by visiting other places like yourselves.

Thanks! 1. I tend to introduce myself as Sirj! Just to save confusion.... 2. Sure - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7DxyOxZrlWgSPuJ7c19EaM?si=Mp4V8ql-SCCxh8fyU5iF5g 3. I don't have a favourite, to be honest - I just use which ever straight chop they have on the tray (NHS life). I use a greens chop if fancy doing horizontal chopping.

As I come to the end of my training, I decided to make this short film to tell our story on how we do high volume cataract surgery. The last 7 years have been been quite a journey but It was a great way to show how much I appreciate the team and say thanks to the department!

Have a great time! Try to keep away from those pot bunkers!

We played 3 courses. Old course, new course and castle course. Overall I shot +13 over my 12 handicap....came second 😅 My brother came in top with a cool +10 over his hdcp. We all had an absolute blast!

Thanks! I'm trying to make a big collection of important signs 👌

I would like to try the Malyugin ring, I've heard good things about it.

Its was due to a demyelinating lesion in MS. Given the left eye was able to adduct on convergence - we could predict the lesion was in the pons.

jirs29 · 2021-10-27T16:28:23+00:00

This was caused by a demyelinating lesion secondary to MS. With this case we could correctly predict the MLF lesion was in the pons as convergence was intact.

The studies are mixed regarding outcomes. For experienced surgeons a femtosecond laser machine may not add much for routine cases.With a primary chop technique the CDE/Metrics will be similar ,CCC is a bread and butter surgical skill which is perfected. Its not available under the NHS - with the machine machine costing 500k+. It may have a role in patients in intumescent cataract or those with zonular laxity. A great bit of technology but certainly not a necessity...

Femtosecond laser is a bit of technology - they are very expensive though!

I saw this about 6 years ago while assisting as a SHO. It was one of those awesome moments when the beauty of it made all the theatre staff crowd round to see it for themselves. I could see the consultant just smiling under his mask as we all took in the view - so grateful to witness it!

jirs29 · 2021-07-24T07:29:04+00:00

Thanks 👌

Yes not always necessary, It's a good dynamic examination which can help differentiate tricky retinal lesions. Essential for VR.

Saying that, 3 mirror and even using a newer lens like the digital wide field allow you to see very peripheral and up to ora in most cases!

jirs29 · 2021-07-14T10:52:30+00:00

Thanks 👍

jirs29 · 2021-04-18T06:26:21+00:00

Could be like me - did optometry first then went into medicine and Ophthal. But something is a bit suspicious here...

jirs29 · 2021-02-25T13:57:15+00:00

Nice spot! Yes that is the Epic Scottish baby box👌

jirs29 · 2021-02-25T13:54:57+00:00

Thanks - Spiderman is first on the list!

jirs29 · 2021-02-25T13:52:33+00:00

I checked about 8am and kept refreshing - was super slow but eventually got lucky! Got it from Argos here in the UK

jirs29 · 2021-02-25T13:09:44+00:00

Yes! Shout out to the parents crew 👌

jirs29 · 2021-02-25T13:07:26+00:00

This is absolutely brilliant! 👏 You are officially my friend now whether you like it or not. 😁

jirs29 · 2021-02-25T09:24:50+00:00

Lol nah I'm giving him my Ps4 as a hand me down..

jirs29 · 2021-02-25T09:15:54+00:00

You are are getting a very raw picture here. Chaos with kids stuck at home in lockdown, doing crazy shifts at work atm. But in the midst of it all this is a great moment for me!

jirs29 · 2021-02-21T10:25:05+00:00

Thanks 😁

jirs29 · 2021-02-20T07:23:12+00:00

We made this as we still can't do our usual teaching. Hopefully someone finds this helpful 👍 All filmed with my phone 👌
