Visual rehabilitation after LASIK complication: flap amputation, topo-guided surgery, and phacoemulsification.

We present a case of a patient complaining of monocular diplopia due to a decentered ablation after LASIK. The patient underwent a wavefront-guided retreatment, which resulted in an epithelial ingrowth complication. Additionally, the patient developed cataract, with cataract surgery requiring reliable biometric measurements.

Evaluation of visual performance and patient satisfaction with pseudophakic monovision technique.

Purpose: To evaluate the distance, intermediate and near visual acuity of patients with bilateral cataract operated on both eyes corrected for distance in one eye and for near in the fellow eye, as well as, their stereo acuity and their general satisfaction.

Settings: Hospital de Olhos de São Paulo and Complexo Hospitalar Padre Bento - Guarulhos - São Paulo - Brazil.

Methods: This is a prospective study of 76 eyes of 38 patients with bilateral cataract aiming to become spectacle free after surgery.

[Evaluation of the modified capsular tension ring in cases of traumatic lens subluxation].

Purpose: To evaluate the behavior of the modified capsular tension ring (MCTR) in traumatic subluxated cataracts analyzing the visual acuity, centration of the capsular bag, pseudophacodonesis, postoperative follow-up and intra- and postoperative complications.

Setting: Cincinnati Eye Institute, Cincinnati, Ohio, USA.

Methods: Twenty-two eyes of 22 patients with traumatic loss of zonular support had phacoemulsification using PCIOL and MCTR implantation.

Unilateral dysphotopsia after bilateral intraocular lens implantation using the AR40e IOL model: case report.

The authors report a recent complication during the postoperative period of cataract surgery. A patient was submitted to cataract surgery in both eyes with IOL implantation (Sensar) inside the capsular bag. The postoperative period of right eye was uneventful, however, in the left eye the patient noted a dark shadow at the temporal visual field at the first postoperative week.
