A 73-year-old-gentleman was referred for ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN) in his right eye (RE). He had history of combined cataract with trabeculectomy in RE and was maintaining his intraocular pressure (IOP). He showed a corneoscleral lesion measuring 11 × 8 mm in nasal quadrant wherein, the superior edge of the lesion was extending up to the filtering bleb. After ruling out intraocular invasion or regional spread, he underwent complete tumor excision with "no touch" technique along with cryotherapy and surface reconstruction and a perilesional injection of Interferon α2B. At 6-month visit, he shows no locoregional recurrence and has controlled IOP.

Contact lenses have become integral tools in the realm of ocular therapeutics, extending beyond their primary function of refractive correction to encompass a diverse array of therapeutic applications. This review explores the evolving role of contact lenses in managing various ocular conditions, highlighting their efficacy in enhancing patient outcomes. Initially developed to correct refractive errors, contact lenses now serve as effective vehicles for delivering medications directly to the ocular surface, offering targeted treatment for conditions such as dry eye syndrome and corneal ulcers.

Backround: Prednisolone-Derived Corticosteroid (PDC), has anti-inflammatory activity in ocular administration. However, drug administration to the eye is extremely difficult due to the complex structure of the eye. Because of the ability of the eye to retain the drug and its physiology, the bioavailability of drugs applied to the eye is very low.

Introduction: Ocular pain is a common complaint to eye care providers, associated with a variety of ocular conditions, among which dry eye disease (DED) is affecting millions of people worldwide. Despite being highly prevalent, ocular pain is not managed adequately in the clinic.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the analgesic potential of neurokinin-1 receptor (NK1R) antagonism in DED.

Purpose: This study highlights the feasibility of femtosecond laser-assisted large-diameter lamellar corneal-limbal keratoplasty and its efficacy in the treatment of ocular surface failure caused by bilateral ocular chemical injury.
Observations: The series included 3 patients with ocular surface failure caused by bilateral ocular chemical burns. After dissection of the host cornea, a femtosecond laser-assisted large-diameter lamellar corneoscleral button, with varying thickness of 250-400 μm, was sutured to the recipient bed.
