The earliest documented reference to the most commonly performed ocular surgery and cataract surgery, has been found in Sanskrit manuscripts dating from the fifth century BC. It was attributed to the Indian surgeon, Sushruta. According to Herodotus, the historian of ancient Greece, surgery was practiced by “chirorgos”, which combines the words “hand” and “work” and means “surgeon”. The early 17th century BC papyrus papers of Edwin Smith also mentioned advanced level of ophthalmic surgery practiced by Egyptians. The mid-19th century saw major developments of surgical practices inherited from the ancient masters. The 20th century was a century of dramatic advances. Surgeons across the globe have been constantly putting their creative thinking into action for devising novel ways for cutting, reshaping, reforming, bypassing, and fixing ocular anomalies.
This volume is a comprehensive textbook–atlas. It has a highly visual format that includes illustrations and images, as well as features that align with current ophthalmology training. The content has been organized in such a way to facilitate quick access of information, with abundant bullet point lists and boxes, and fewer denser passages of text than found in a traditional textbook. Each section is color-coded for easy cross-referencing and “navigation”. In all the sections, operative techniques and surgical strategies are explained step-by-step to increase surgical knowledge and anatomy. A section on ethics and medicolegal aspects of surgical practice is an additional highlight of the book.
This book has a global perspective with the participation of renowned international contributors. It includes a variety of topics of interest to a wide-ranging audience, including operating in areas with limited resources. It has been an honor to work with the section editors and contributors of this book.
Newer surgical advances challenge the existing trends. The future of ophthalmic surgery seems as dynamic as its history. We are grateful to all the great ophthalmic surgeons of the past and look forward to the operating room of the future through learning new techniques, understanding and adapting to new technologies, maintaining surgical competencies, and applying the same to our practices.
Since the first edition of this book was published, I have received numerous email messages from readers appreciating the format of the book. I heartily thank all those who chose to read the previous edition and hope this new edition will give an updated insight into the ever evolving and intriguing ophthalmic surgeries. We have added one chapter and updated many of the existing. The bibliography has been updated.
If you have any comments, feel free to email me at the address below.

Acknowledgments
Taking out a new edition of a book is harder than I thought and more rewarding than I could have ever imagined. During the process of revisiting the topics, I realized the fast changing pace of the techniques and technology, and time.
George L Spaeth and Myron Yanoff, my co-editors, thank you for being great leaders and, even greater, mentors. I truly respect your faith in me to carry out the mammoth task of editing this volume. I will always cherish the chance to represent you.
I want to thank “everyone” who has taught me something. Parents, Teachers, Friends, Students, and last but not the least, my patients.
Without the experiences and support from the team at M/s Jaypee Brothers Medical Publishers (P) Ltd, New Delhi, India, this book would not exist. A very special thanks to Ms Chetna Malhotra Vohra (Associate Director–Content Strategy) and Ms Prerna Bajaj (Development Editor).
