Staining and Sizing Technique for Human Amniotic Membrane Graft in Refractory Macular Holes.

To describe the triple S technique for aiding the visualization (staining), preparation (sizing), and placement (sliding) of human amniotic membrane grafts in cases of refractory macular holes (MHs). Brilliant blue-green dye was used to stain the graft before insertion for improved visualization and to aid in its orientation. Preoperative optical coherence tomography-based sizing of the graft was performed, and a dermal trephine was used to fashion the graft according to size.

A case of branch retinal artery occlusion postcataract surgery in an antiphospholipid syndrome patient.

A 46-year-old female with preoperative vision 6/18 N18 (LogMar 0.5) in re and posterior subcapsular cataract underwent an uneventful phacoemulsification surgery under a peribulbar block. On the postoperative day 2, she complained of no visual gain in the operated eye.

Endogenous fungal endophthalmitis following intensive corticosteroid therapy in severe COVID-19 disease.

Purpose: To report endogenous fungal endophthalmitis, postrecovery from severe COVID-19 infection in otherwise immunocompetent individuals, treated with prolonged systemic steroids.

Methods: Retrospective chart review of cases with confirmed and presumed fungal endogenous endophthalmitis, following severe COVID-19 disease, treated at two tertiary care referral eye institutes in North India.

Results: Seven eyes of five cases of endogenous fungal endophthalmitis were studied.

LONGITUDINAL SWEPT SOURCE OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY ANGIOGRAPHY OF EXTRAFOVEAL POLYPS AFTER COMBINATION THERAPY.

Purpose: To study the efficacy of swept source optical coherence tomography angiography (SSOCTA) to longitudinally follow-up patients with extrafoveal polyps post-laser photocoagulation and anti-vascular endothelial growth factor injection.

Methods: Observational case series. Four patients diagnosed as polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy with extrafoveal polyps on multimodal imaging were followed up serially on SSOCT, en face and cross-sectional SSOCTA at a month and then 3 monthly for a year.

Tug of war: A bimanual technique for anterior circumferential proliferative vitreoretinopathy in recurrent retinal detachment.

Purpose: To describe a bimanual technique, "tug of war" for managing anterior circumferential proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) in eyes with recurrent retinal detachment (RRD).

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed outcomes from eyes with RRD that underwent reattachment surgery using this maneuver and had a minimum of 6 months follow-up. A chandelier light was inserted for endo-illumination and the circumferential anterior PVR was tackled with two 25-gauge forceps stretching circumferential tractional membranes in opposite direction (tug of war) till they snapped.
