Background: Atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis (ARAS) may provoke hypertension and/or impaired kidney function. Some patients develop uncontrolled hypertension and deteriorating kidney function despite optimal medical therapy. In these patients, endovascular treatment is an important therapeutic option.

Purpose: To compare the refractive outcomes and the complications of implantation surgery by the Carlevale IOL to the Artisan iris-claw IOL.
Methods: Retrospective comparative study of consecutive surgical cases between 2019 and 2021 in our tertiary centre in Paris, France.
Results: We included 142 eyes in the Artisan group and 63 in the Carlevale group.

Background: Occupational injuries are a growing public health problem. Approximately 1,000 workers die daily from occupational injuries globally. Artisans working in the informal sector of the construction industry in many low/middle income countries like Nigeria have a higher injury predisposition.

Purpose: To investigate the risk factors for corneal endothelial cell density (ECD) loss of 2 types of iris-fixated phakic intraocular lenses (pIOL) and indicate the cutoff values for preventing irreversible ECD loss after explantation.
Design: The retrospective, comparative, clinical cohort study.
Methods: Total 114 eyes of 61 patients were included in this study.

Introduction: Our aim was to evaluate the visual and refractive outcomes of iris-fixated phakic toric intraocular lenses (IOLs) for visual rehabilitation in eyes with stable corneal ectasia.
Methods: We conducted a study looking at the clinical outcomes of iris-fixated toric IOLs (Artisan) in 33 eyes of 27 patients diagnosed with mild-to-moderate corneal ectasia at a single center (Queen Victoria Hospital, East Grinstead, UK). The main outcome measures were functional improvement [accuracy of post-operative spherical equivalent (SE), astigmatic correction, topographic parameters, uncorrected and corrected distance visual acuity (UCVA, CDVA)] and safety of the procedure: endothelial cell count and intra- and post-operative complications.
