Traumatic iridodialysis and mydriasis: Surgical reconstruction of the iris-lens-diaphragm with an iris implant and Intraocular lens.

Purpose: We present the case of a severe golf related ocular injury that affected the anterior and posterior segment. Treatment included primary surgical closure of the traumatic wound and secondary reconstruction of the iris-lens-diaphragm to correct aphakia and traumatic mydriasis and iridodialysis.

Observations: A 62-year-old woman presented to our clinic with severe ocular contusion after she had been hit by a golf ball in the right eye.

Open Globe Injuries: Classifications and Prognostic Factors for Functional Outcome.

This paper explored epidemiology and evaluation of posterior segment involvement as prognostic factors for functional outcome of patients with open globe injuries. A retrospective analysis of 151 patients with open globe injuries was conducted. Pre- and postoperative-corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), epidemiologic data, classification of the injuries including the ocular trauma score (OTS), performed surgeries, intraocular pressure (IOP) and correlation analyses between OTS and postoperative CDVA were obtained.

Intravitreal 0.19 mg Fluocinolone Acetonide Implant in Non-Infectious Uveitis.

The efficacy of the 0.19-mg fluocinolone acetonide (FAc) intravitreal implant (ILUVIEN) in the treatment of non-infectious uveitic macular edema (UME) was assessed on twenty-six patients (34 eyes) with non-infectious UME between 2013 and 2020, in a mean follow-up of 18 ± 19.3 (mean ± SD) months.

Bilateral Artificial Iris implantation in patients with bilateral iris defects.

Purpose: Binocular traumatic or atraumatic iris defects can lead to an increased sensitivity to glare and cosmetic disfigurement. Surgical iris reconstruction is one approach to alleviate these problems. We report the clinical outcomes after medically indicated bilateral implantation of an Artificial Iris prosthesis in three patients with binocular iris defects with different etiologies.

Reversibility of the duet procedure: Bilateral exchange of a supplementary trifocal sulcus-fixated intraocular lens for correction of a postoperative refractive error.

Purpose: We present the case of a 49-year old female who underwent bilateral exchange of a supplementary trifocal sulcus-fixated intraocular lens (IOL) to correct a residual refractive error. Six months beforehand, she had been treated for hyperopia, astigmatism and presbyopia with a duet procedure to create reversible trifocality.

Observations: Refractive lens exchange with combined implantation of a monofocal toric IOL into the capsular bag and a trifocal supplementary IOL into the ciliary sulcus (duet procedure) had been performed in both eyes.
