Article Synopsis
- Lifebuoy cataract is an uncommon congenital condition that leads to lens thinning, and this study aims to address the limited knowledge and treatment options available through detailed case reports and surgical techniques.
- A 14-year-old boy with a history of untreated congenital cataract experienced worsening vision, leading to a diagnosis confirmed by various examinations, including slit-lamp microscopy and optical coherence tomography.
- The surgical intervention involved a careful cataract surgery, highlighting techniques to handle complications like central calcification and residual opacification, although posterior capsulotomy was avoided due to risk of vitreous prolapse.
Objective: The stability of ascorbic acid (AA) in the human aqueous humor (AqH) remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the stability of AqH AA under varying conditions (27, 4, - 20, and - 80 °C) without acidification.
Results: Rapid AA degradation occurred at 27 °C.
Short anterior chamber depth (ACD) is considered a risk factor of endothelial-cell loss after phacoemulsification. However, whether it is an independent risk factor or not remains controversial. We investigated the relationship between ascorbic acid (AA) concentrations in the aqueous humour (AqH) and ACD.
