Manual Small Incision Cataract Surgery

This digital version of the textbook published by Aravind Eye Hospitals and Postgraduate Institute of Ophthalmology was produced and made available online by Global Sight Alliance, a part of Vision Outreach International. This comprehensive 137-page manual outlines how to perform Manual Small Incision Cataract Surgery (MSICS), which is an “alternative technique to instrumental phacoemulsification” that has a quicker healing process and does not require high-grade medical technology, making it beneficial to use in developing countries that do not have access to such equipment.
