Introduction: Toxic anterior segment syndrome (TASS) is a rare but serious complication of anterior segment surgery characterised by an acute sterile inflammation. The ICL implantation has gained popularity for the correction of moderate and high ametropias in cases where classical keratorefractive procedures are contraindicated.

Objective: The purpose of this case report is to present the evolution and management of toxic anterior segment syndrome after EyePCL implantation in a 19 year old hyperopic male patient.

Purpose: Retrospective study of local tolerability of a natural hydroxyapatite orbital implant wrapped with Vicryl(®) (polyglactin) mesh in patients undergoing enucleation.

Method: Complications were classified into four types according to their management: type 1 if no reoperation was required, type 2 if additional surgery without grafting was required, type 3 if an oral mucosal graft was performed (major dehiscence) and type 4 if the complication required removal of the implant.

Results: Seven hundred and four patients with a median follow-up of 44 months.

Purpose: To perform an overall follow-up of the morphologic, optical, and biomechanical properties of the cornea to determine new parameters influencing the refractive outcomes of cataract surgery.

Design: Clinical study.

Methods: Patients scheduled for cataract surgery were assessed for surgically induced corneal astigmatism (SIA) and higher-order aberrations, (HOAs) using a Scheimpflug rotating camera (Pentacam) together with corneal imaging by optical coherence tomography (Spectralis) and biomechanical analysis by the Ocular Response Analyzer preoperatively and 1, 7, and 30 days postoperatively.
