Discordance between Anterior Segment Anatomy and Axial Length in Cataract Surgery Candidates in France.

Introduction: The aims of this study were to study ocular biometric data and their association with age and sex in a population of cataract surgery candidates and to assess the proportion of inhomogeneous eyes and the ratio anterior segment (AS) to axial length (AL). Multicentric cross-sectional analysis was conducted between April 2008 and May 2021 in public and private ophthalmic institutions in Montpellier, France. Individuals ≥40 years old who underwent ocular biometry before cataract surgery were included.

Orbital Apex Syndrome Secondary to Herpes Zoster Ophthalmicus.

Orbital apex syndrome is a rare complication of herpes zoster ophthalmicus. In addition to our case, we review the clinical presentation, imaging findings, treatment options, and prognosis of 14 other reported cases. Magnetic resonance imaging of our patient demonstrated diffuse enhancement of the orbit involving the orbital apex, optic nerve and/or nerve sheath, extraocular muscles, and orbital soft tissues.
