Significance: We report the use of anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) as a valuable tool for capsular block syndrome diagnosis and follow-up.
Purpose: The purposes of this study are to report a case of late-onset capsular block syndrome or lacteocrumenasia and to describe differential diagnosis with other more common phacoemulsification complications such as intraocular lens (IOL) or posterior capsule opacification.
Case Report: We report the case of a 56-year-old man with a clinical history of cataract surgery in his left eye.
Purpose: As minimally invasive glaucoma surgery devices emerge, newer complications are reported. XEN gel stent is safer than classic glaucoma surgery but may also lead to severe adverse effects as hypotony. Compression conjunctival sutures are a useful treatment for overfiltration hypotony after XEN gel stent implantation, but might force bleb tearing by the implant as it gets tightly close to the sutured conjunctiva.

Methods: A retrospective, non-randomized cohort study with 1 year of follow-up included 62 eyes of 62 refractory glaucoma patients who underwent transscleral cyclophotocoagulation or endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation.
Results: Thirty-two patients were enrolled in transscleral cyclophotocoagulation group and 30 patients in endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation group, and the follow-up period was 1 year.
Objective: To compare prospectively intraocular pressure (IOP) results after deep sclerectomy (DS) using a topical short-term corticosteroid treatment (STCT, 1 month) versus a topical long-term and intense corticosteroid treatment (LTCT, 6 months) in a two2 year-follow-up.
Methods: Patients with medically uncontrolled open angle glaucoma were prospectively recruited and underwent a DS.
Results: We operated 45 eyes of 45 patients, 22 in STCT group and 23 in LTCT group.
Purpose: The purpose of the study is to describe a novel technique to implant Ahmed valves in patients with refractory glaucoma because of silicone oil (SO) endotamponade PATIENTS:: Three patients with glaucoma without SO removal were used as an example for this technique.
Methods: Technique report.
Results And Conclusions: We introduce a standard technique modification for Ahmed valves in patients with SO.
