Purpose: To demonstrate an unusual mechanism of iatrogenic, central descemetorhexis (DMR) during cataract surgery and subsequent rare spontaneous visual acuity improvement within 2 months after inadvertent surgical complication.

Patients And Methods: A 81 year old woman underwent cataract surgery complicated by the loss of a 4.8X4.

Purpose: To evaluate the incidence of laser enhancement following cataract surgery and refractive lens exchange (RLE) with FineVision Micro F trifocal lens implantation (PhysIOL, Liège, Belgium).

Methods: Retrospective study of patients who had undergone cataract or RLE surgery and had received a FineVision Micro F intraocular lens. Laser enhancement of residual refractive error was determined.

Genotoxic compounds, as common contaminants of the air environment, are of interest in air pollution monitoring. There are several methods to determine the level of these contaminants in different localities, many of which may be difficult to access with the use of conventional active and passive samplers. In the present study, the needles Pinus mugo Turra and Picea abies were used to monitor sampling localities in Austria, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic.

Coniferous needles can be used as a passive air sampler of semivolatile organic compounds (SVOC) and an indicator of atmospheric pollution patterns and trends. There is limited information on whether different parts of the plant (e.g.

Purpose: The aim of the study was evaluation and comparison of rotational stability and the effect of multifocal toric intraocular lens rotation (T-MIOL) at visual quality of two types of intraocular lens AcrySof IQ ReSTOR Toric SND1Tx (Alcon Laboratories, Inc.) and AT LISA toric 909M (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG). There was evaluated a pseudophakic dysphotopsia based on patients subjective feelings as well as the independence on glasses and overall satisfaction with the visual quality after T-MIOLs were implanted.
