Introduction: To present a novel surgical technique for the treatment of a steep-walled filtering bleb following an Ahmed glaucoma valve implant. The primary aim was to alleviate the patient's discomfort and address associated corneal thinning, complications that can arise from this condition.
Methods: Case report and surgical technique.
Purpose: To describe an alternative technique used in massive post-traumatic cyclodialysis. Classic techniques such as direct cyclopexy are performed ab externo and entail a higher risk of endophthalmitis or ciliary body hemorrhage. Therefore we present a case report using combined sewing machine technique cyclopexy with transscleral diode cyclophotocoagulation for complete post-traumatic cyclodialysis.

Methods: This was a cross-sectional study. All included inactive GO patients and healthy controls underwent complete ocular examination, including Goldman applanation tonometry (GAT), corneal biomechanical analysis using Ocular Response Analyser (ORA), and corneal epithelial thickness analysis using Optovue.
Introduction: Non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) is the most common cause of optic nerve swelling and optic neuropathy in adults over 50 years of age. It has been rarely reported during pregnancy, mostly related to systemic and ocular predisposing conditions.
Case Report: We report the case of a 44 years-old healthy female with no previous remarkable clinical history.
Aim And Objective: To report the incidence of late-onset endophthalmitis following XEN45 stent implantation.
Background: Long-term safety profile and efficacy in relation to the so-called microinvasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) techniques are still under evaluation. The XEN45 gel stent entails a bleb formation and often requires postoperative conjunctival management, differing from the current reviewed concept of minimally invasive procedures.
