Your Surgeon: Mr Richard Caesar
I trained in medicine at Cambridge University and qualified as a Doctor in 1992. I then trained in eye surgery in London and Oxford. After my completion of specialist training in 2001 I specialised in oculoplastic and lacrimal surgery with Miss Hague's fellowship in Oxford, and then completed a second year's fellowship with Alan McNab in Melbourne, Australia.
I developed an interest in using step by step videos to train eye surgeons while in Oxford. This developed into a book, Phacoemulsification - Step by Step. This was one of the first surgical texts to include a video CD.
I became a consultant at Cheltenham General Hospital in 2003, and have been training Fellows and Registrars in surgical techniques ever since.
The techniqes shown in the video tutorials reflect my own fellowship training, with some modification from further study and personal experience.
I hope you enjoy the videos!
