Background: Vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) is a chronic inflammatory eye condition predominantly affecting children. Despite its varied clinical manifestations, VKC poses challenges in diagnosis and management because of its multifactorial nature, potentially involving allergic sensitization and comorbidities.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to comprehensively assess VKC, focusing on the possible effect of allergic sensitization on the clinical form, severity, and quality of life of pediatric patients with VKC.

Background and objective The presence of Weiss ring is classically used to aid in the diagnosis of posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) but may at times be challenging to visualize under slit-lamp biomicroscopy. The anterior hyaloid separation sign (AHSS) is a previously undescribed sign that is seen among patients with PVD as a "veil of vitreous" in the anterior vitreous cavity. AHSS is easier to visualize than Weiss ring and may prove useful in settings where Weiss ring detection is not feasible.

To describe the clinical effects of a novel, combined ocular lubricant for treating patients with dry eye disease. A noncomparative, retrospective cohort of 67 eyes (67 patients) with a confirmed diagnosis of dry eye disease using the ocular surface disease index (>12), tear osmolarity, and ocular surface parameters (noninvasive break-up time, meniscus height, and meibography) evaluated using the Cornea550 were included. All patients were treated with a combination of 0.
