Each surgical procedure places unique demands on the anesthesiologist to create surgical anesthesia with minimal physiologic trespass on the patient as well as the surgical repair. In surgery of the eye, the quest for an anesthetic that does not harm the eye or the patient can be a challenge. The removal of cataracts is one of the most frequently performed operations in the United States, and the majority of patients requiring the procedure are elderly and often have other significant medical conditions.
每一种外科手术都对麻醉医生提出了独特的要求，即在对患者生理干扰最小的情况下实现手术麻醉，同时确保手术修复顺利进行。在眼科手术中，寻找一种既不伤害眼睛也不伤害患者的麻醉剂可能是一项挑战。白内障摘除术是美国最常进行的手术之一，大多数需要进行该手术的患者是老年人，并且往往还患有其他严重的疾病。
