A 49-year-old man had uneventful endocapsular phacoemulsification with in-the-bag implantation of an AcrySof SA60AT single-piece intraocular lens (IOL) (Alcon) in the right eye. Twenty-seven days postoperatively, he presented with ocular pain, intraocular pressure of 48 mm Hg, 360 degrees of hyperpigmentation of the trabecular meshwork, and iris pigment epithelial atrophy in the region of the upper temporal haptic, which had dislocated into the sulcus. The patient made an excellent recovery following IOL removal and exchange. Scanning electron microscopy of the explanted IOL demonstrated that the haptic had a rough lateral surface and anterolateral edge. We do not think this IOL should be implanted in the sulcus placement of the heptics. In this article, we report the case of a patient with an AcrySof SA60ATIOL (Alcon) who developed acute pigmentary glaucoma when the inferior haptic slipped out of the bag and came into contact with the pigmented iris and ciliary body.

Objective: Study of neuroimaging changes according to MRI morphometry and their comparison with the structure and severity of cognitive impairment (CI) in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG).
Material And Methods: The study involved 90 patients who were divided into two equal groups of 45 people and who early had diagnosis of AD (group 1; median age - 71 [66; 77] years) and POAG (group 2; median age - 68 [64; 77] years). 71] years).

Background/aim: Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphomas occur in not only the ocular adnexa, but rarely in the sclera or uvea. Histopathological confirmation contributes to a better understanding of the pathogenesis and treatment. We report a case of uveoscleral MALT lymphoma with angle-closure glaucoma.

Purpose: To investigate the relationship between the characteristics of optic disc rotation and visual field (VF) progression in patients with myopic open-angle glaucoma (OAG).
Methods: We included 53 eyes from 53 myopic OAG patients who were followed-up over a 3-year period. The characteristics of optic disc rotation including the degree of optic disc rotation, direction of optic disc rotation, and optic disc rotation-VF defect correspondence were investigated.

This retrospective, comparative, multicenter study aimed to evaluate the real-world outcomes and predictors of failure of Gonioscopy-assisted transluminal trabeculotomy (GATT) at 12 months in glaucoma patients. Predictors of failure of absolute success in bilateral cases (422 eyes of 308 patients) included pre-operative intraocular pressure (IOP; IRR = 1.02; p = 0.

Purpose: Extracellular vesicles (EVs) secreted by non-pigmented ciliary epithelial (NPCE) cells under oxidative stress may contribute to primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) pathogenesis by altering gene expression in human trabecular meshwork (HTM) cells. This study investigated the impact of microRNAs (miRNAs) carried by NPCE-derived EVs on HTM cell gene expression under oxidative stress conditions.
Methods: NPCE cells were exposed to oxidative stress, and EVs were isolated from control and stressed cells.
