The effect of iris-fixated foldable phakic intraocular lenses on retinal straylight.

Purpose: To determine changes in straylight after iris-fixated phakic intraocular lens implantation (pIOL) and to investigate the relationship between straylight and several preoperative and postoperative variables.

Design: Institutional, prospective cross-sectional study.

Methods: Artiflex (Ophtec B.

Reconstruction following subtotal full-thickness upper eyelid resection with preservation of the lid margin.

Purpose: To describe a modification of a technique for upper eyelid reconstruction previously described by Patrinely et al.

Methods: Radical excision of a large adenoid cystic carcinoma of the upper eyelid resulted in a subtotal full-thickness eyelid defect with preservation of 2 mm of eyelid margin. Reconstruction was performed with a free transconjunctival graft of maximum size from the contralateral upper eyelid, an overlying bipedicled skin-orbicularis oculi muscle flap and a free skin graft.
