Purpose: To report the intermediate- and long-term visual outcomes and complications with the Boston type 1 keratoprosthesis (KPro) for the management of aniridic keratopathy.
Methods: A retrospective chart review of 46 eyes of 34 patients (20 females and 14 males) with aniridic keratopathy who underwent Boston type 1 KPro surgery by a single surgeon from 2004 to 2012 with minimum 2-year follow-up was conducted. Preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative parameters were collected and analyzed.
Purpose: To report a single case of ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN) that occurred in a living-related conjunctival limbal allograft (lr-CLAL).
Methods: Case report and literature review.
Results: A 70-year-old white man developed OSSN in a histocompatible identical lr-CLAL over 3 years after the surgical procedure.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to report the clinical features and management of patients with ocular surface damage during methamphetamine production accidents.
Methods: This is a retrospective noncomparative interventional case series of 5 patients with methamphetamine production-related ocular injuries referred to the Cincinnati Eye Institute between 1999 and 2014.
