Purpose: To evaluate sutureless scleral tunnel phaco-assisted cataract extraction in regards to the cumulative dissipated energy (CDE) used, the resulting endothelial cell loss (ECL), and the surgically induced astigmatism (SIA) in advanced cataracts.
Methods: A prospective interventional uncontrolled case series was performed. Patients with advanced cataracts according to the Lens Opacities Classification System III (LOCS III) had sutureless scleral tunnel phaco-assisted cataract extraction.
Purpose: To study the safety and efficacy of 25-gauge trocar-assisted flanged intrascleral sutureless IOL fixation in patients with insufficient posterior capsular support.
Methods: Five aphakic eyes with capsular insufficiency were included in this prospective interventional case series study, at Dar El Oyoun Hospital, Cairo, Egypt. Twenty five-gauge trocar-assisted flanged intrascleral sutureless technique was used for IOL fixation, in which retinal microforceps were used to capture and externalize both haptics through a scleral tunnel.
Purpose: To evaluate femtosecond laser in DSAEK surgery as an improvement to manual DSAEK.
Settings: Department of Ophthalmology, Cairo University.
Design: A retrospective observational clinical study.
Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of big-bubble (BB) technique in separating Dua's layer together with the Descemet's membrane endothelial (DE) graft and the effect of 7-day storage of the prepared tissues on the endothelial cells.
Method: This is an experimental study in which 21 human corneo-scleral tissues unsuitable for transplantation were used. Grafts were mounted on artificial chamber; epithelial side-up with BB technique was used to detach the DE graft.
