Background: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of ultraviolet B (UVB) exposure on UV filters of various intraocular lenses (IOLs).
Methods: Eight samples each of the hydrophobic acrylic, hydrophilic acrylic and silicone IOLs were used. Four IOLs of each type was selected randomly as the control group while the remaining four IOLs of each type were exposed to a UVB dose of 1.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the benefits of using triamcinolone-assisted vitrectomy for managing retained nuclei during cataract surgery complications.
- The research involved 12 patients who experienced nucleus drop during phacoemulsification, with treatment involving vitrectomy and phacofragmentation, leading to mostly successful outcomes and good visual acuity results.
- The findings suggested that using triamcinolone during the procedure improved the removal of vitreous material and reduced the risk of complications like retinal detachment.
Purpose: To report the results of transscleral implantation of foldable intraocular lenses (IOLs).
Setting: Department of Ophthalmology Dokuz Eylül University School of Medicine, Izmir, Turkey.
Methods: Twenty eyes of 20 patients had transscleral fixation of a foldable IOL combined with conventional 3-port pars plana vitrectomy or anterior vitrectomy.

Purpose: To evaluate the results of 2 surgical techniques in eyes with postoperative endophthalmitis.
Setting: Department of Ophthalmology, Dokuz Eylul University, School of Medicine, Izmir, Turkey.
Methods: Twenty-four eyes with endophthalmitis after cataract surgery had vitrectomy as an initial procedure according to the Endophthalmitis Vitrectomy Study (EVS) criteria (Group 1, n = 24).
Fifty-three eyes of 49 consecutive patients with an intraocular pressure (IOP) over 21 mmHg; without bleb or with a thick, flat bleb after the second postoperative week following trabeculectomy were included in the study. Needle revision was performed with a 26-gauge tuberculin syringe containing 5 mg (0.2 ml) 5-FU in a period of 2 weeks to 10 months postoperatively after unsuccessful digital massage and/or laser suture-lysis.

We report the ICG angiographic findings in four patients with Bietti's crystalline retinopathy and compare them with the fluorescein angiographic findings.
Methods: Review of the records of four patients with Bietti's crystalline retinopathy, three of whom were from a single consanguineous family.
