Ophthalmologic Anesthesia Scholarly Journal:

 Ophthalmology is a division of medicine and surgery which deals with the diagnosis and treatment of eye disorders. An ophthalmologist is a professional in ophthalmology. It includes a degree in medicine, followed by additional four to five years of ophthalmology residency training. Ophthalmology residency training programs may necessitate a one-year pre-residency training in internal medicine, general surgery or paediatrics. Extra specialty training may be sought in a particular aspect of eye pathology. Ophthalmologists are acceptable to use medications to treat implement laser therapy, eye diseases, and perform surgery when needed. Ophthalmologists may contribute in academic research on the treatment and diagnosis for eye disorders. General anaesthesia is favored for ocular surgeries in psychiatric patients, anxious adults, infants and children. It is also indicated in perforating ocular injuries and major surgeries like exenteration. During the surgery, it has to be confirmed that no carbon dioxide retention occurs. If this occurs, the choroid swells up and ocular contents may prolapse when the eye is opened. The advantages of general anaesthesia is that it produces complete controlled intraocular pressure, akinesia, and safe operating environment. It is the safest choice for bilateral surgery. The difficulties of general anaesthesia are hypercarbia, hypotension, laryngospasm, respiratory depression and cardiac arrhythmia.
