Our lead surgeon, Mr Muel-Gonzalez, has recently returned from the prestigious Spanish Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery (SECOIR) congress, held this May in A Coruña, Spain. Mr Muel-Gonzalez was invited as a guest speaker to present a cutting-edge technique: Dropless Cataract Surgery.
While this advanced approach is already transforming lives here in the UK, Mr Muel-Gonzalez’s presentation marked the first time this specific technique has been formally presented in Spain. The impact was immediate—his communication was so well-received that it won the Prize for the Best Oral Communication in Crystalline Lens.
What is Dropless Cataract Surgery?
For many patients in Manchester and across the North West, the post-operative routine of administering multiple eye drops daily can be a significant challenge.
Dropless surgery is a revolutionary method where necessary medications are administered by the surgeon during the procedure itself. This often eliminates the need for patients to manage complex drop schedules at home, reducing stress and improving recovery outcomes. Winning the top prize at an international level confirms that the standards of care provided by Mr Muel-Gonzalez are among the best in the world.
