A decade of intracapsular cataract extraction: Clinical profile and visual outcomes at Hospital Melaka, Malaysia.

Introduction: Cataract is a leading cause of visual impairment globally and in Malaysia, with surgery being the definitive treatment. While intracapsular cataract extraction (ICCE) is now less commonly performed due to advancements in surgical techniques, it remains essential in specific cases, such as those with weak zonular support. This study aims to evaluate the incidence, clinical profiles, and visual outcomes of patients who underwent ICCE, with or without intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, at Hospital Melaka, Malaysia, over the past decade.

Evaluation of Retinal Nerve Fibre Layer Thickness and Choroidal Thickness in Parkinson Disease Patients.

To evaluate the retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) thickness and choroidal thickness (CT) in Parkinson disease (PD) patients. A comparative cross-sectional, hospital-based study. 39 PD and 39 controls were recruited, who were gender and age matched.

Use of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator for treatment of recalcitrant anterior uveitis: A case series.

Management of inflammation after surgery for recalcitrant anterior uveitis is challenging. Herein, we report successful treatment using intracameral injection of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) in two patients with recalcitrant anterior uveitis, due to infective uveitis and Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease, respectively. A 40-year-old woman presented with bilateral redness and vision reduction that had persisted 2 weeks.

Comparison of peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness between myopia severity groups and controls.

Aim: To compare the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness measured optical coherence tomography (OCT) between different groups of myopia severity and controls.

Methods: This was a prospective cross-sectional study. All subjects underwent a full ophthalmic examination, refraction, visual field analysis and A-scan biometry.
