We present a case of ocular globe luxation after general anesthesia. Upon completion of the surgery, the upper eyelid was retracted to examine for conjunctival edema, which resulted in globe luxation. The posterior aspect of the globe was visualized and a small tethering white structure ("check ligament") was observed. The upper lid was retracted, and the globe easily repositioned into the orbit. Ophthalmic sequelae would not be anticipated if the episode of globe luxation is brief. Anesthesiologists should be aware of the risk factors associated with globe luxation and know how to appropriately treat this complication.

Persistent fetal vasculature, previously called persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous, is a rare congenital condition where a component of fetal vessels within the eye fails to regress, leading to visual acuity decrease or loss. We present a case of a 13-year-old male patient, with a history of second-degree consanguinity, psychomotor development retardation, intellectual deficit from birth, in addition to a progressive bilateral visual acuity decrease. He recently presented a leukocoria in the right eye.

Background: This cross-sectional observational study aimed to investigate the visual attention patterns of postgraduate endodontic residents during the interpretation of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans for traumatic dental injuries (TDIs) using eye-tracking technology.
Methods: A cohort of 10 residents who were recruited from King Abdulaziz University Dental Hospital (KAUDH) underwent interpretation of seven CBCT images of TDIs. Eye-tracking metrics, including dwell time, entry time, end time, and the number of revisits, were recorded and analyzed using nonparametric statistical tests.

Traumatic orbital fracture with prolapse of the globe into the paranasal sinuses is very rare. The visual prognosis is poor, and the medical and surgical management is still a topic of debate. We herein describe an extremely rare case of globe dislocation into the left maxillary sinus with complete recovery of visual acuity.
