Wow!  I'll have to post some of the photos I took of cataract surgery in 
Honduras and see if you can identify the archaic equipment we used!  I also 
have some 100 Macro shots of the cataract lens being slipped into the 
eye.  The surgeon did both phaco and extracap surgeries.  I won't post 
those in case somebody has a quesy stomach!
