Piggybacking technique for vitreous protection during opacified intraocular lens exchange in eyes with an open posterior capsule.Subtle intraocular movements such as iridodonesis, phacodonesis, and pseudophacodonesis are often not appreciated or go unnoticed. The presence of these movements indicates the presence of an intraocular abnormality or a compromised state of the eye. Detection of these movements preoperatively can help the surgeon to be ready with contingency plans and help in better managing a case intraoperatively.High-speed cinematography, 1-3 real-time imaging 4 and, recently, smartphones 5,A have been used in ophthalmology. The newest iPhone models (Apple, Inc.) support the recording of high-speed photography that allows capturing slow-motion video with the native camera application (app) that can be used to detect subtle intraocular movements.
MATERIALS AND METHODSThe term frames per second (fps) means the number of images recorded per second. Human eyes are accustomed to videos that are played at 24 to 30 fps (Figure 1, A). Slow motion captures a bunch of pictures very fast, and adjusting the smartphone camera to 120 fps (iPhone 5s) (Figure 1, B) or 240 fps (iPhone 6) sets the recording of at least 120 images/240 images per second or more, respectively. When this video runs, it typically plays back at an eyeball-friendly rate of 24 to 30 frames a second. In other words, 120 fast images are played at the speed to which a human eye is receptive (Figure 1, C). The huge excess of 120 images that have been filmed in 1 second of real shooting lasts for approximately 4 seconds or more (30 Â 4 Z 120) on the screen. Thus, slow motion is derived.
