Season 3: Episode 2: Eye Surgery

Eye surgery sounds terrifying.
But what actually happens when doctors operate on something the size of a marble?

In this episode of Tumor Minutes, we break down the science behind eye surgery, from common procedures like cataract surgery and LASIK to delicate retinal operations that take place within millimeters. You will learn how surgeons use lasers, microscopes, and incredibly precise tools to restore vision safely and effectively.

We also explore how eye surgery plays a critical role in treating cancers like Retinoblastoma and Uveal Melanoma, and why early detection can make all the difference.

If the idea of anything going near your eye makes you blink aggressively, this episode is for you.
