Aim: To describe the clinical characteristics and surgical outcomes of complicated cataract with pediatric trematodal granulomatous uveitis (TGU).
Methods: Patients of cataract with TGU in the membranous (inactive) stage underwent cataract surgery with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. Preoperative history and ophthalmic examination were conducted for all cases, whereas Schimphlug imaging and corneal topography were done for some patients.
Purpose: To analyze astigmatic changes after intrastromal corneal ring segments (ICRSs) implantation accompanied by corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) in keratoconic eyes using the Alpins vectorial method.
Patients And Methods: Twenty-eight eyes of 18 patients with keratoconus were included in this retrospective non-comparative study. All patients had combined femtosecond laser-assisted Keraring implantation and CXL, and completed at least 2 years of follow-up.
Purpose: To assess the 3-year safety and efficacy of femtosecond laser-assisted intrastromal corneal ring segments' (ICRS) implantation followed or accompanied by transepithelial accelerated corneal collagen cross-linking (TE-ACXL) as a treatment of keratoconus in children with vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC).
Patients And Methods: Fifty two eyes of 28 children with keratoconus and vernal VKC were included in this study. Cases were divided into 2 groups; the first group had been treated with femtosecond laser-assisted ICRS (Keraring) implantation accompanied or followed by TE-ACXL, while the second group had been treated by TE-ACXL only and all cases completed a follow-up period of 3 years.
Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the effectiveness of a combined treatment, called cross-linking PLUS, for managing keratoconus over three years, focusing on changes in vision and corneal measurements.
- Results showed significant improvement in both uncorrected and best-corrected visual acuity, as well as reductions in keratometry measurements and astigmatism after the treatment.
- The conclusion indicates that the procedure effectively halted the progression of keratoconus and improved refractive status, combining the benefits of corneal cross-linking and intrastromal corneal ring segments.
Purpose: To compare Ologen implant versus mitomycin-C (MMC) in combined trabeculotomy and trabeculectomy as a treatment of primary congenital glaucoma.
Setting: Sohag University Hospital, Egypt.
Design: A prospective comparative study.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to detect the clinical and histological effects of preoperative subconjunctival injection of both bevacizumab and mitomycin C (MMC) 1 month before the surgical excision of primary pterygium using a bare sclera technique.
Patients And Methods: A total of 20 patients with primary pterygium underwent subconjunctival combined injection of 0.1 mL of MMC (0.
