Abstract

Spatial tactics in ophthalmic surgery are concerned with the shape and volume of the globe and its interior compartments (Fig. 1.1). The objective is to alter these parameters or maintain them in a controlled way during the application of external forces. Spatial tactics provide the immediate context within which the cutting, removing, and uniting of tissues are performed.
