Objectives: To show the importance of frozen section-controlled excision to avoid the re-recurrence of recurrent basal cell carcinoma (BCC) of the eyelids.

Materials And Methods: Thirty-five cases who underwent eyelid tumor excision in different centers and were admitted to our clinic with recurrent eyelid tumors. Recurrent tumors were resected by excision 1-2 mm from the tumor's visible margin and sent to pathology for frozen section examination.

In this paper we consider, discuss, improve and generalize recent b-(E.A)-property results for mappings in b-metric spaces established by Ozturk and Turkoglu (J Nonlinear Convex Anal 16(10):2059-2066, 2015). Thus, all our results are with much shorter proofs.

The purpose of this retrospective study is to evaluate the long-term ophthalmological outcome in children with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) who were treated for threshold disease with indirect laser photocoagulation. 107 eyes of 56 patients with threshold ROP treated with indirect laser photocoagulation and 202 eyes of 101 control patients with spontaneously regressed ROP were included. Fixation pattern, ocular motility findings, visual acuity, anterior segment examination, cycloplegic refraction and indirect ophthalmoscopic dilated fundus examination findings of all the included subjects were recorded.

Article Synopsis
  • The study looked at how a new method of treatment called transepithelial corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) affects the eye compared to the standard method that removes some tissue.* -
  • Both methods were tested on patients with a condition called keratoconus, and they used special eye cameras to check the results before and after the treatments.* -
  • The results showed that the new method worked similarly in depth but caused less damage to the eye cells compared to the standard method.*

Purpose: To evaluate retrospectively the cosmetic and functional effects on success of lacrimal diaphragm and periosteum suturation after the anastomosis of anterior flaps before skin closure in external dacryocystorhinostomy (ext-DCR).

Methods: During ext-DCR, lacrimal diaphragm was separated from periosteum over anterior lacrimal crest before entering lacrimal fossa. At the end of ext-DCR, the separated periosteum and lacrimal diaphragm were sutured in the study group (270 patients) and were left unsutured in the age-matched control group (96 patients).
