Objective: To investigate the visual outcomes and patient satisfaction following trifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation after radial keratotomy (RK).
Methods: This was a retrospective chart review wherein we studied 14 eyes from 7 patients who had undergone cataract surgery and had trifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implanted in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia's King Fahd University Hospital and Kahhal private centre. Data such as demographic characteristics, the time between RK and cataract removal, intraoperative and postoperative complications, preoperative and postoperative uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), and refraction were evaluated.
Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate surgical outcomes, compare success rates, and identify potential risk factors for failure of various surgical procedures for consecutive exotropia.
Patients And Methods: This retrospective cohort study was conducted at a tertiary eye hospital in Saudi Arabia and included patients with consecutive exotropia treated between 2007 and 2020. Patients with a follow-up of <3 months were excluded.
Purpose: To describe the predisposing factors, causative organisms, treatment modalities, and visual outcomes of childhood non-viral microbial keratitis in our region.
Patients And Methods: All cases with the clinical or microbiological diagnosis of non-viral microbial keratitis in patients ≤18 years presenting to Dhahran Eye specialist Hospital, a tertiary eye care hospital in Dhahran, Eastern Province, Saudi Arabia, between 2010 and 2020 were included. A retrospective chart review was conducted.
We are reporting a case of a 22-year-old lady with bilateral microphthalmia and microcornea, in which a modified technique for sutureless scleral fixated intraocular lens implantation provided a successful aphakic rehabilitation alternative with a good visual outcome and significant improvement in quality of life. Management of aphakia in microphthalmic eyes is challenging due to the anatomical abnormalities and limited literature on managing such cases. Visual rehabilitation for aphakia using contact lenses is limited by intolerance and poor lens fitting.
