Indications and Outcomes of Intraocular Lens Explantation in a Tertiary Eyecare Center in Hungary between 2006 and 2020.

Purpose: Our study aimed to evaluate the indications and outcomes of intraocular lens (IOL) explantation surgeries in a tertiary eyecare center in Hungary.

Materials And Methods: This retrospective study included all IOL explantation surgeries performed between 2006 and 2020 at the Department of Ophthalmology of Semmelweis University, Budapest, Hungary. There were no exclusion criteria for this study.

Ophthalmic Aspects of Stevens-Johnson Syndrome and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis: A Narrative Review.

The aim of our review article was to summarize the current literature on Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and its severe form, toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). SJS/TEN is a serious, rare multi-system, immune-mediated, mucocutaneous disease with a significant mortality rate that can lead to severe ocular surface sequelae and even to bilateral blindness. Restoration of the ocular surface in acute and chronic SJS/TEN is challenging.

[Retroiridal implantation of a Verisyse™ iris claw lens: refractive outcome and individualized intraocular lens constants].

Background: Evaluation of refractive predictability with retroiridal implantation of a Verisyse(TM) iris-claw lens (AMO) and optimization of the IOL-constants recommended by the manufacturer.

Patients And Methods: A retrospective study after retroiridal iris-claw lens implantation in the years 2007-2012 including 52 eyes of 50 patients with a lack of capsular support was carried out. Follow-up data was recorded on average 5 weeks after surgery.

[Keratoconus lenses: the small correction miracle].

Keratoconus is a non-inflammatory corneal disease associated with a cone-shaped protrusion and progressive corneal thinning. Apart from progression control and stabilizing interventions, correcting the optical error induced by a mostly highly irregular corneal surface is of paramount importance with respect to quality of life and ability to work. This goal can be achieved efficiently by contact lenses with only rare adverse conditions.
