Challenges in Managing Secondary Glaucoma Post-Repeat Penetrating Keratoplasty in a Developing Country.

Purpose: To illustrate the complexity in managing secondary glaucoma post-repeat penetrating keratoplasty in a developing country.

Case Description: A patient with a history of five repeat penetrating keratoplasties (PKPs) showed good intraocular pressure (IOP) control with trabeculectomy; however, blebitis occurred as an undesirable complication. Trabeculectomy was done rather than tube implantation due to socioeconomic factors, although it's not an ideal treatment.

Predictive Factors for Successful High Myopia Treatment Using High-Frequency Laser- Keratomileusis.

Aim: To evaluate the predictive factors of LASIK procedure for high myopia with or without astigmatism using a combination of high-frequency femtosecond-assisted LASIK followed by an excimer laser.

Methods: This study was a retrospective interventional case series study to evaluate myopic eyes undergoing high platform LASIK with FEMTO LDV Z2 intervention, followed by WaveLight®EX500 excimer laser machine. Subjects were divided into 2 groups: high myopia (SE of -6.

Sensitivity change in cornea and tear layer due to incision difference on cataract surgery with either manual small-incision cataract surgery or phacoemulsification.

Purpose: To describe corneal sensitivity changes caused by different incision methods-manual small-incision cataract surgery (manual SICS) and phacoemulsification-and their influence on tear film quantity and quality.

Methods: This was a prospective observational study conducted in 30 subjects undergoing manual SICS or phacoemulsification. Corneal sensitivity was assessed before and 1, 7, and 15 days after surgery by Cochet-Bonnet esthesiometer.
