However, the data on efficacy and safety of this technique is still limited and more clinical studies are needed. Therefore, the work is aimed at comprehensive evaluation of the effectiveness of trabeculectomy using MMC applied by intra-Tenon injection.

The main goal of the initial treatment is prompt and copious irrigation to neutralize and eliminate the chemical, followed by various therapeutic options (conservative and surgical) according to the individual patient's postinjury findings.
Purpose: In this case report, we describe the course and treatment of a patient with chemical alkali burns of both eyes.
Aim: To report the clinical results of treatment of patients with retinal tears or holes, including rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, who were treated primarily with laser retinopexy.
Material And Methods: The effect and results of the therapy of patients with one or more retinal tears who underwent therapy with the green laser IQ 532 IRIDEX between December 2019 and August 2022 at our center with a follow-up observation period of at least 3 months were retrospectively evaluated.
Results: A total of 14 eyes of 14 patients were treated by this method during the monitored period.
Aim: To report the clinical results of chelation of band keratopathy in long-term follow-up.
Material And Methods: The long-term results of 5 patients (5 eyes) with symptomatic band keratopathy with a follow-up period of at least 6 months, in whom 2% EDTA was chelated on the affected eye in the study period from April 2018 to March 2021, were retrospectively evaluated. The follow-up period was 9-37 months.

Purpose: Describe the clinical finding and course of treatment in patients with a sudden decrease in visual function due to an acute occlusion of the arteria centralis retinae. Patients were primarily indicated for selective angiography with thrombolysis of the ophthalmic artery.
Materials And Methods: Medical documentation of two patients with acute central retinal artery occlusion with a time duration of up to 5 hours was evaluated retrospectively.
Objective: A description of the development of a clinical ocular finding of 23 patients (35 eyes) with steroid-induced posterior subcapsular cataract of different source, focusing on its character and mechanism of origin.
Methods: The medical records of 23 patients, 14 women, 9 men, median age 44.5 years (median 44 years, interval 29 - 52 years) were evaluated retrospectively and had undergone surgery from 5/2016 to 5/2018 at Gemini Eye Clinic Bělský les.
Aim: To describe clinical findings in patients with sudden decrease of visual functions according to the solar maculopathy appearance after watching the partial solar eclipse and results of the changes follow-up after 7 weeks.
Material And Methods: Medical records of five women (6 eyes) with solar maculopathy associated with watching partial solar eclipse on March 20th, 2015 were retrospectively evaluated. The diagnosis of solar maculopathy was established according to the medical history, ophthalmologic examination of the fundus in artificial mydriasis, and confirmed by means of spectral domain optic coherence tomography examination of the macula.
