Conjunctival Relaxing Incisions with a Bare Bed: An Overlooked Privilege in Contracted Sockets.

Introduction: The aim of reconstruction of a contracted socket is to retain a satisfactory prosthesis. Simple procedures to modify the socket architecture as first line options could avoid multiple staged procedures, increased surgical time, harvesting tissues or use of allografts. The objective of this study was to evaluate the outcome of modifying the socket architecture by making conjunctival relaxing incisions leaving it bare to re-epithelialize and compare it to dermis-fat graft.

Prescription of near addition and its relation to accommodative reserve in presbyopia - The dichotomy between theory and practice.

Purpose: To study the relationship between the amplitude of accommodation (AA) measured by the Royal Air Force (RAF) rule and near addition (NA) prescribed in presbyopic patients to assess how far practice is different from theoretical recommendations.

Methods: Patients, aged 40 to 60 years with best corrected vision of 6/6 N5 were included in this cross sectional observational study. AA was measured using the RAF rule.

PACK-CXL in Reducing the Time to Heal in Suppurative Corneal Ulcers: Observations of a Pilot Study From South India.
