Abstract
Effective and safe ophthalmic anesthesia is essential for the delivery of ophthalmic perioperative care both for children and adults. Recent years have seen a major change in form of smaller incisions for most ophthalmic surgical techniques, thus making them less invasive. Additionally, most ophthalmic surgeries are now day-care surgeries at ambulatory surgical centers. The parallel advancements in the field of anesthesiology have boosted the standard of perioperative care. The purpose of this narrative review was to evaluate current trends in anesthetic agents and techniques for ophthalmic anesthesia primarily centered around deep sedation and general anesthesia as per the concerns of practicing anesthesiologists while briefly acquainting with local anesthesia advances.
