PROCEDURE DESCRIPTION:  
The patient, having given informed consent, underwent an eye procedure on their right eye in the operating room. The eye was numbed and prepped, and a lid speculum placed. A small incision was made in the conjunctiva to inject local anesthetic, followed by another incision in the sclera. After injecting additional anesthetic and filling the eye with viscoelastic material, a superior corneal incision was made and a capsulorhexis performed. The lens was removed by phacoemulsification and replaced with a 17.0 diopter posterior chamber intraocular lens. Viscoelastic material was then extracted, the eye repressurized, and an antibiotic-steroid combo administered. The eye's wounds were confirmed to be watertight, and healing was left to occur naturally. Lastly, the lid speculum was removed and a series of medicinal drops and ointments were administered to the eye.
