Penetration of topically applied diclofenac and ketorolac into the aqueous humour and subretinal fluid: randomized clinical trial.

Objective: To determine the level of intraocular penetration of diclofenac sodium and ketorolac tromethamine into the aqueous humour and subretinal fluid.

Design: Prospective randomized clinical trial.

Participants: Twenty eyes scheduled for retinal detachment surgery and 17 eyes scheduled for cataract surgery.

Macular edema and iridocorneal endothelial syndrome: a case report.

Purpose: To report a case of cystoid macular edema (CME) in iridocorneal endothelial syndrome.

Methods: Case report.

Results: The authors describe the clinical history and ocular examination of a 38-year-old woman with iridocorneal endothelial syndrome and CME.

Decompression retinopathy after Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation in a patient with congenital aniridia and pseudophakia.

We present the case of a 16-year-old adolescent boy with congenital aniridia and pseudophakia who developed decompression retinopathy in a glaucomatous eye after Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation combined with anterior vitrectomy. On the first postoperative day, dot and blot-shaped hemorrhages scattered in the posterior pole were observed. The hemorrhages resolved over 6 months, and the visual acuity returned to the preoperative level.

Outcome of complex retinal detachment surgery after silicone oil removal.

Background And Objective: To evaluate anatomical prognosis after silicone oil removal.

Patient And Methods: Sixty-eight eyes which underwent silicone oil removal were enrolled into the study. The underlying ocular pathology for pars plana vitrectomy, surgical methods, and time of silicone oil removal were analysed.

Intraocular intrusion of a scleral sponge implant.

A patient with intrusion of a scleral sponge implant after retinal reattachment surgery is described. Retinal incarceration occurred during primary retinal reattachment surgery and the patient underwent additional cryopexy and radial sponge implant. However, the retina remained detached and pars plana vitrectomy was performed with silicone oil endotamponade to reattach the retina.

Management of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment without detectable breaks.

Purpose: To evaluate the causes of failure to find retinal breaks, the anatomical and functional outcomes of patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RD) without detectable breaks (Group I), to compare the results with detectable breaks (Group II).

Methods: Forty-five out of 258 eyes that had RD without detectable breaks were analysed retrospectively.

Results: The causes of failure to find retinal breaks were aphakia/pseudophakia in 22 eyes, small pupil without any eye disease in four eyes, corneal opacity in two eyes, cataract in two eyes, vitreous haze in two eyes, choroidal detachment in one eye, and unknown cause in 12 eyes.
