Published: August 2024

Introduction: In this case report, we demonstrate the application of an aspheric macular lens (Grieshaber, Alcon) for conducting posterior segment procedures after a posterior capsular rupture (PCR) occurrence during cataract surgery.

Case Presentation: During a cataract surgery on a 70-year-old female patient, a PCR was identified, accompanied by the descent of the lens into the vitreous, and prompted subsequent interventions. This involved performing posterior-assisted levitation, anterior segment phacoemulsification, and anterior segment vitrectomy. Subsequently, due to the absence of a BIOM posterior viewing system in the operating room, an aspheric macular lens (Grieshaber, Alcon) was positioned on the patient's eye. Subsequently, pars plana vitrectomy was performed, along with the extraction of residual lens cortical remnants. The procedure concluded with gradually inserting a 3-piece intraocular lens into the sulcus.

Conclusion: When managing posterior capsular rupture, using an aspheric macular lens, such as the Grieshaber (Alcon), can be beneficial.

Multifocal Optics for Myopia Control.

Article Synopsis
  • * New studies highlight the role of peripheral vision in slowing myopia, suggesting that multifocal lenses designed to create peripheral myopic defocus can help reduce the elongation of the eyeball, which is linked to worsening myopia.
  • * Although these new lenses and contacts are generally safe and well-tolerated, ongoing research should focus on diverse populations and real-world application to ensure that the benefits in managing myopia are meaningful and applicable to different groups.

We evaluated the macular visibility of a newly designed extended depth of focus (EDOF) intraocular lenses (IOL) using a wide viewing system for macular manipulation (Risight;60D, Carl Zeiss Meditec AG) in a model eye and compared it with various other types of IOLs. We used a model eye that was constructed based on the Glustrand model to compare a newly designed EDOF IOL (DIB00V; Johnson & Johnson Surgical Vision), an EDOF IOL with a diffraction grating (ZXR00V; Johnson & Johnson surgical Vision), and a monofocal aspheric (DCB00V; Johnson & Johnson Vision, XY-1; HOYA Surgical Optics, Tokyo, Japan) or spherical IOL (NX70s; Santen Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd).

Objective: Spectacle lenses with highly aspherical lenslets (HAL) and slightly aspherical lenslets (SAL) showed effective myopia control. This study was to investigate their effects on macular choroidal thickness (ChT) in myopic children.

Methods: Exploratory analysis from a 2-year, double-masked, randomised trial.

We present the difficulties in choosing the right IOL, when facing a great variability of the keratometric measurements, in the case of a patient operated for epiretinal membrane and lamellar macular hole, who developed complicated cataract in the operated eye. Upon commencing the biometric measurements, inconsistency in keratometric values led to further investigations. Repeated placido disc topography initially showed corneal ectasia, which posed a problem on selecting the right type of intra-ocular lens.
