Purpose: To illustrate the imaging findings of orbital compartment syndrome (OCS) in patients with orbital mucormycosis and to identify the red flag signs on imaging for prompt diagnosis and timely intervention.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of CT and MRI scans from patients diagnosed with sino-nasal mucormycosis within three months of a confirmed COVID-19 infection. Microbiologically proven cases of mucormycosis were included.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to create a DIY 3D ophthalmic surgery recording system to assess stereopsis during surgeries like cataract, retinal detachment, and intravitreal drug injection.
- A survey involving experienced ophthalmologists revealed that videos viewed on the DIY 3D system (VR Box) provided better depth perception ratings compared to pseudo 3D videos, particularly for key surgical parameters.
- The findings suggest that the DIY 3D system enhances understanding of depth during surgeries and could be a valuable tool for teaching and skill transfer in ophthalmology.
Purpose: To compare surface quality and endothelial cell viability of descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) donor lenticules prepared with femtosecond laser (FSL) or microkeratome (MK).
Methods: Experimental ex-vivo evaluation of 15 DSAEK donor lenticules prepared from optical quality donor corneas using 200 KHz FSL (9 eyes) or MK (6 eyes). Surface quality and smoothness of the cut were assessed using atomic force microscopy and endothelial cell viability was assessed using transmission electron microscopy.
