Aggressive conjunctival Kaposi sarcoma as the initial manifestation of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.

Purpose: To report a case of Kaposi sarcoma in a patient with previously undiagnosed Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection.

Observations: A 23-year-old male patient presented to the eye clinic with complaints of redness of his left eye for the past month. The patient had been seen one day prior to presentation in the emergency department for a neck mass and pneumonia.

Accuracy, repeatability, and clinical application of spherocylindrical automated refraction using time-based wavefront aberrometry measurements.

Purpose: To evaluate the clinical utility of spherocylindrical automated refraction (AR) based on time-based wavefront technology compared with subjective manifest refraction (MR) for the purpose of prescribing eyeglasses.

Design: Prospective observational case series.

Participants: A convenience sample of 105 eyes of 53 patients (ages 19 to 87) with corrected acuity no worse than 20/40(-2).

The Ophthalmic Clinical Evaluation Exercise (OCEX).

Purpose: New concise tools must be developed to assess reliably and validly the core residency competencies identified by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education.

Participants: Eighteen content experts (residency program directors).

Methods: A 1-page Ophthalmic Clinical Exercise Examination (OCEX) checklist, for use during observed resident-patient interactions, was developed by an American Board of Ophthalmology taskforce.

Bilateral dislocation of in-the-bag posterior chamber intraocular lenses in a patient with intermediate uveitis.

We present a case of bilateral dislocation of in-the-bag intraocular lenses (IOLs) in a patient with intermediate uveitis. The IOLs dislocated into the vitreous cavity 24 and 41 months postoperatively. A complete pars plana vitrectomy with sutured posterior chamber IOL implantation was performed after each dislocation.
