Comprehensive Monitored Anesthesia Care During Day Care Ophthalmic Surgery

Today elderly patients with complex health‑related issues undergoing successfully a day care ophthalmic procedure are a common scenario. How can these high risk patients safely undergo an eye surgery and be back at home on the same day? This is possible, only when a well‑planned, scientifically drawn protocol is in place at an institution. This plan of action takes into consideration every possible detail about the patient and also his or her special requirements if not demands. The anesthesiologist commands these well‑set actions and guides the other health care staff to streamline the day care program, thereby sparing the busy ophthalmologist to attend to his clinical and surgical workload.
