Introduction: Diabetes leads to an alteration in retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness and macular thickness which can easily be detected with optical coherence tomography (OCT).
Objectives: This study was done to compare the RNFL and macular thickness between diabetic patients without retinopathy and non-diabetic patients so that it would be useful in the early detection of retinal changes if present. The correlation between the RNFL and macular thickness with metabolic blood parameters of diabetic subjects was also studied.
Background: Destructive ocular surgeries are performed for many conditions ranging from trauma to tumours, where the eyes cannot be salvaged. The objective of our research was to study the profile of destructive ocular surgery and their indications.
Methods: This retrospective study reviewed all patients who underwent evisceration, enucleation, and exenteration at B.
Background: Orbital lymphomas are primarily non-Hodgkin type and can originate from the eyelids, extraocular muscles, soft tissue orbital adnexa, conjunctiva, or lacrimal glands. Orbital malignancies often represent a diagnostic dilemma for clinicians given their varying and atypical presentations.
Objective: To report a case of orbital lymphoma mimicking orbital cellulitis.
Though rare, a pediatric dentist should have background knowledge of this kind of presentation which can greatly affect their patient's quality of life and leave them with a significant deficit at a very young age.

Objectives: To compare CCT and intraocular pressure in patients of primary openangle glaucoma (POAG) with those of normal population.
