Objective: To introduce a simplified method to remove silicone oil via limbus of corneal after previous lensectomy-vitrectomy.
Methods: Fifty-one eyes received the modified procedures to eliminate silicone oil via one pars plana or limbus incision after previous lensectomy-vitrectomy. Local anesthesia was performed with 25G syringe needle through pars plana or corneal limbus infusion and super limbus incisions to eliminate silicone oil.
Results: All operations were primarily successful in eliminating silicone oil. The complications occurred in all the patients with the early low intraocular pressure, in 4 (4/51, 7.8%) eyes with retinal detachment, and in 2 (2/51, 3.9%) eyes with less bleeding at the point of puncture. The visual acuity was significantly improved after the procedure (P < 0.05) in patients with stable retinal reattachment.
Conclusion: The procedure via one pars plana and limbus or limbus incision after previous lensectomy-vitrectomy is useful in removing the silicone oil tamponade in aphakic eyes because of its simplicity, good curative effect, and fewer complications.

Dielectric capacitors are vital for modern power and electronic systems, and accurate assessment of their dielectric properties is paramount. However, in many prevailing reports, the fringing effect near electrodes and parasitic capacitance in the test circuit were often neglected, leading to overrated dielectric performances. Here, the serious impacts of the fringing effect and parasitic capacitance are investigated both experimentally and theoretically on different dielectrics including AlO, SrTiO, etc.

Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) is a severe condition that may lead to permanent vision loss if untreated. Pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) has become a preferred surgical intervention, particularly in complex cases. Objective: Retinal displacement (RD) following PPV for RRD can lead to visual distortions and can negatively impact patient quality of life.

: Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) is a potentially blinding retinal disorder. RRD in the first eye is a well-recognized risk factor for bilateral RRD since risk factors that predispose to RRD affect both eyes. In this study, we assess the presenting factors that predispose individuals to bilateral RRD and evaluate the role of prophylactic retinopexy in preventing fellow-eye RRD.

Purpose: Current treatments for retinoblastoma facilitate globe salvage but can result in vitreoretinal disorders that may require surgery. There is controversy on surgical approaches in eyes with retinoblastoma. Here we describe a transcorneal vitrectomy approach that avoids the use of chemotherapy or cryotherapy.
