Thank you it looks very interesting.Ferenc Kuhn has been doing alot of work to clear up the confusing terminology in ocular trauma - you might want to cite some of his work The Birmingham Eye Trauma Terminology system (BETT).J Fr Ophtalmol. 2004 Feb;27(2):206-10. Review. PMID: 15029055 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE]

Dear Doctor,Thank you for sending your presentation and asking for my opinion. I tried to understand the spirit of your material and I fully understand that there are a number of
imprecise terms in medicine and ophthalmology. I remember how hard were the concept of ICCE and ECCE to understand when I was doing my internship because the two terms do not describe the surgical procedure adequately.I would also take some more examples from the field of eye traumatology. The new terms introduced by dr. Kuhn have simplified our understanding and overall have standardized the terminology. I fully agree that there is a tremendous need for some changes in terminology.Good luck for your presentation.Best regards, Paolo
Dr Katta ,I just saw your power point presentation.It is excellent.Congratulations--

Dear Dr.Katta, Quite interesting.
good presentation,
good number of words,
good referrels
But, it looks like guest lecture with customised free paper presentation.There is no other way to expose such problems.

Dear Venkatesh:
Thanks for your mail. I would have been happy to review your excellent work, election or no election. Here are my comments:
1. Retinoscopy could be Refractometry 2. Syringing could be Lacrimal Irrigation Test 3. CVS probably has many components other than fixed distance strain, best left as it is
Let cataract cowboys decide regarding all terms related to cataract.
Good effort! Please do take it forward to a logical conclusion.
Best,
Santosh
