Today’s case comes from the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston, submitted by retina fellow Dr. Andrew Farag under the supervision of attending Dr. Muhammad Shamim. They’ll demonstrate for us a clever technique for removing an irregular, cylindrical intraocular foreign body using a Flex Loop as a snare, turning a potentially awkward, unstable object into a well-controlled extraction. Let’s take a look at how they secure the IOFB, and deliver it safely out of the eye. Thank you Drs. Farag and Shamim for sharing this case!
