Purpose: To illustrate the successful management of advanced coats disease with exudative retinal detachment with posterior lens touch in a three year old young boy using subretinal drainage technique using an extrusion cannula.

Methods: Under general anesthesia, external drainage of subretinal fluid (SRF) was performed using an active extrusion cannula. Concurrent cryotherapy and endolaser treatment were administered, with cytological analysis of SRF to exclude retinoblastoma.

Introduction: Congenital hypothyroidism (CH) is the most common preventable cause of mental retardation, and the two important causes of CH are thyroid dysgenesis and dyshormonogenesis. Thyroid imaging is an integral part of identifying the specific aetiology of CH. We aimed to study the aetiological profile of CH and compare the imaging findings of ultrasonography (USG) and nuclear scintigraphy.

Purpose: The primary objective of this study was to investigate the possible role and assess the potential relationship of speculum use during phacoemulsification surgery in the occurrence of blepharoptosis.

Methods: Our study is a prospective observational design to analyze patients who underwent phacoemulsification surgery under topical anesthesia between October 2017 and May 2018 at a tertiary eye hospital in South India. All patients had their Margin Reflex Distance 1 (MRD1), levator palpebrae superioris (LPS) function, and lid crease distance (LCD) measured before and after surgery on day one, one month, three months, and six months to evaluate the extent of ptosis at each time point that was recorded clinically and photographic documentation for accurate evaluation.

Multiport converters are the most reliable and integral component for latest renewable source integration with multiple inputs. This article is one among the kind, which proposes a novel Coupled Inductor based Four Port topology Multiport Converter (CI-FP-MPC) for integrating multiple PV sources with different voltages. The adoption of coupled inductor contributes an increased voltage gain with reduced stress on the switches and diodes.

Stingray injury is common in temperate and tropical waters worldwide. The majority of injuries are minor and can be managed with simple first aid at the shoreline; however, serious complications can occur. We report a case of Vibrio alginolyticus wound infection, retained foreign body, and posterior tibial artery pseudoaneurysm after stingray envenomation in a returning traveler.
