We describe a novel technique for recurrent pterygium and assess the advantage of properties of extended tenonectomy, amniotic membrane transplantation, and limbal epithelial transplantation in terms of recurrence rate, postoperative symptoms, postoperative orthoptics, and other complications. A total of nine eyes with recurrent pterygium underwent PERMISLET, i.e.

The aim of the present study was to compare the effectiveness and safety of two anti-VEGF drugs: brolucizumab and aflibercept, in treatment-naïve nAMD Indian patients over a period of 48 weeks.
Methods: A prospective, randomized, single-centre, single-blinded, two-arm comparative study was conducted between March 2021 and February 2022.
Monocular elevation deficiency poses a challenge to strabismus surgeons on account of its varied clinical presentations as well as management which often needs a tailored approach. We report on a young child who presented to us at 6 months of age with a clinical course marked by primary involvement of the inferior rectus muscle in one eye causing restricted elevation in all gazes and complete relief of hypotropia following disinsertion of the affected muscle but followed by recurrence and additional procedures (antimitotic application and superior rectus plication) for the same. She followed a recalcitrant clinical course which was marked by multiple recurrences requiring a tailored approach and finally managed successfully with a follow-up of 3 years, by now.
