Background: Numerous diseases associated with COVID-19 infection and vaccination have been reported, including conditions such as the autoimmune blistering diseases (AIBD) pemphigus and pemphigoid. However, robust evidence supporting these associations is lacking.
Objective: To investigate the risk of developing AIBD following COVID-19 infection and vaccination.

Background: Currently, the push-in technique through the corneal tunnel using a blunt-tip spatula is used to insert an artificial corneal endothelium (EndoArt) into the anterior chamber (AC). The device is useful for patients with bullous keratopathy; however, it may be difficult to manipulate the very thin implant through hazy cornea. Unlike DMEK graft, it cannot be stained and the F-mark is faint.

Background: Posterior chamber intraocular lens (IOL) dislocation is a common complication of cataract surgery. Dislocated IOLs often require surgical intervention due to the potentially severe risks of leaving this condition untreated. If a patient with extremely low corneal endothelial cell density (ECD) presents with IOL dislocation, the surgeon faces a crucial dilemma of choosing the most optimal surgical treatment option.

Introduction: Complex corneal conditions present surgical challenges and necessitate innovation. Here, we present two cases where we performed intraocular lens trans-scleral fixation using the double-needle Yamane technique, followed by penetrating keratoplasty and vitrectomy using a temporary Landers wide-field keratoprosthesis.
Case Presentation: Case 1 involved a 70-year-old man with an aphakic eye of bullous keratopathy and corneal opacity owing to multiple penetrating and endothelial keratoplasty, endophthalmitis, and herpetic keratitis.

Bullous keratopathy, a condition severely impacting vision and potentially leading to corneal blindness, necessitates corneal transplantation. However, the shortage of donor corneas and complex surgical procedures drive the exploration of tissue-engineered corneal endothelial layers. This study develops a transparent, amphiphilic, and cell-free membrane for corneal endothelial replacement.
