Background: During cataract phacoemulsification surgery, an Intrepid® balanced (IB) tip can achieve a larger amplitude, which may lead to higher energy efficiency than a Kelman (K) tip when paired with a torsional phaco platform. In this retrospective cohort study, we compared their energy efficiency and damage to the cornea under a new energy setting.
Methods: The medical records of 104 eyes of 79 patients were reviewed, with 47 eyes belonging to the IB group and 57 eyes belonging to the K group.
Vision stolen by a hidden thief: 5-Year retention of a bandage contact lens.
Cont Lens Anterior Eye
April 2019
An 80 year-old male patient was prescribed a bandage contact lens on the left eye 5 years ago because of an injury on the eye by a wooden stick. He was never followed up to remove the contact lens. Two years ago, he suffered from gradually decreased visual acuity in the left eye.

Materials And Methods: Patients referred for PDG caused by SPA IOL ciliary sulcus fixation to our hospital from April 2005 to June 2011 were included. The patients' general information, IOL type, interval between initial surgery and PDG occurrence, examination findings, antiglaucoma medicine regimen and surgical interventions were recorded.
Purpose: To explore the feasibility of reattaching the dislocated graft with viscoelastic in abnormally structured eyes after Descemet-stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK).
Design: Retrospective case series.
Participants: Five pseudophakic bullous keratopathy cases (5 eyes) with a history of vitrectomy and/or iris-lens diaphragm injury.
