Comparison of pupil expansion devices in small pupil phacoemulsification.

Purpose: To study the outcomes of phacoemulsification in small pupils (≤4 mm) using pupil expansion devices at a tertiary eye care center in South India.

Methods: The study design is prospective, randomized, comparative, and interventional. Mechanical pupil dilatation with iris retractors (group I), B-HEX ring (group II), and Gupta ring (group III) was compared with respect to pupil size achieved (intraoperative), total surgical time, device addition time, complications, endothelial cell loss, and postoperative best corrected visual acuity.

Pterygium surgery using inferior rotational conjunctival autograft versus conventional conjunctival autograft with sutures - A comparative study.

Purpose: To compare the outcomes of pterygium surgery by using an inferior rotational autograft and a conventional superior conjunctival autograft.

Methods: This was a prospective interventional comparative study of 85 eyes of patients who were divided into two groups of 45 and 40. Standard techniques of both procedures were performed by a single surgeon.

Comparison of the Length of Styloid Process in Panoramic Radiographs to Computed Tomography as the Gold Standard.

Aims: To compare the length of styloid process assessed using computed tomography (CT) and panoramic radiographs (PAN).

Materials And Methods: PAN were taken for 15 patients requiring CT reporting to PMS Dental College or metro scans, after obtaining informed consent and fulfilling all the inclusion and exclusion criteria. CT images were taken in metro scans.

Modified balanced two-string technique of internal scleral fixation of posteriorly dislocated intraocular lens.

Posterior dislocation of the intraocular lens (IOL) is a rare but potentially dangerous complication encountered by a cataract surgeon. We describe a modified balanced two-string technique of internally fixing a posteriorly dislocated rigid IOL using the pars plana approach in eyes which lack adequate capsular support. Five eyes of five patients underwent the procedure.
