The clinical outcome of implantable collamer lens in corneal ectasia post astigmatic keratotomy.

Introduction: Implantable collamer lens (ICL) is a posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens. It is usually indicated for high refractive error correction that cannot be treated by laser vision correction due to physical limitations.

Case Presentation: 39 years old male with a past ocular history of keratoconus underwent astigmatic keratotomy followed by crosslinking in both eyes a couple of years later due to signs of corneal ectasia progression.

Utilization of Ophthalmic Technology and Advances in Endothelial Keratoplasty: A Case Report.

Introduction And Importance: The authors report a case of a 65-year-old male with corneal decompensation associated with poor vision with a recent history of cataract surgery.

Case Presentation: A patient presented with complaints of poor vision in the left eye. The patient had undergone phacoemulsification surgery 4 months prior to presentation.

Modified sutureless and glue-free method versus conventional sutures for conjunctival autograft fixation in primary pterygium surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Pterygium is a common ocular surface disorder that requires surgical intervention for treatment. Conjunctival autografts are preferred over simple excision due to lower recurrence rates. This systematic review and meta-analysis compared the modified sutureless glue-free (MSGF) method with conventional sutures (CS) for conjunctival autograft fixation in primary pterygium surgery.

Dislocated Sömmering Ring with Decompensated Cornea Presenting 14 Years After Lens Aspiration and Anterior Vitrectomy: A Case Report and Literature Review.

BACKGROUND A Sömmering ring is a post-cataract opacity (PCO) formed due to the adhesion of anterior capsule edges to the posterior capsule. It is mostly associated with aphakic cases but has also been reported in pseudophakic eyes. It becomes clinically important when dislocation occurs.

Severe Dry Eye Disease in Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease: A Comprehensive Case Report.

BACKGROUND Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) is a hereditary neurological disorder that primarily leads to peripheral neuropathy, characterized by progressive muscle weakness, atrophy, and loss of sensation in the extremities. It can also present with some ocular manifestations, such as glaucoma, nystagmus, and cranial nerve involvement. The purpose of this article was to report a case of severe dry eye disease (DED) possibly associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.

Preferred surgical techniques for secondary intraocular lens implantation in adults with aphakia.

Aim: To identify the current surgical management of aphakia and the outcomes and complications of each technique.

Methods: This cross-sectional study included ophthalmic surgeons with at least one-year experience in surgery for aphakia. A study questionnaire was formulated to collect data in Saudi Arabia and other regional countries.

Repeat Lamellar Keratoplasty Treatment for Positive Rim Lamellar Keratoplasty.

A case describes repeat lamellar keratoplasty (LKP) as a treatment for positive rim of LKP. As have postulated in the literature, having positive rim is a substantial risk factor for a developing fungal keratitis. Different management approaches of fungal keratitis over a corneal graft have used.

Scleral melt and uveal prolapse following 23-gauge pars plana vitrectomy.

Purpose: To report a case of uncontrolled juvenile open angle glaucoma (JOAG), with secondary high axial myopia who presented with scleral melting and uveal prolapse post pars plana-vitrectomy.

Observations: A 17-year-old male juvenile glaucoma patient, not known to have any systemic disease underwent a right eye 23-gauge-pars plana vitrectomy for retinal detachment repair. Three weeks following his surgery he presented complaining of tearing and photophobia in the operated eye in the absence of any ocular pain.

Treatment challenges associated with a superiorly located bulbar conjunctival mass-case report and review of the literature.

Purpose: This report describes a recurrent case of ocular surface squamous neoplasia in a middle-aged and immunocompetent patient.

Observations: The summary of clinical presentation, workup, and medical and surgical intervention are described, followed by a brief overview of the treatment challenges associated with superiorly located conjunctival lesions.

Conclusions: In cases where topical chemotherapeutic drops cannot penetrate the lesion, the location of conjunctival lesions can sometimes pose a challenge.

Outcomes and complications of implantable collamer lens for mild to advance keratoconus.

Purpose: To evaluate the outcome and safety of implantable collamer lens (ICL; (Visian, STAAR Surgical, Monrovia, CA, USA) in mild to advance keratoconus patients with myopia and myopic astigmatism.

Methods: This retrospective study evaluated all patients who underwent ICL implantation for the management of keratoconus at a tertiary care eye hospital from January 2012 to January 2018. The mean duration of follow-up was 15.

Real-time Optical Coherence Tomography Incorporated in the Operating Microscope during Cataract Surgery.

A 55-year-old male presented with reduced vision due to senile cataract. The patient consented to undergo real-time intraoperative anterior segment-optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) during phacoemulsification with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. Images were captured at various points during the surgery.
