We applied a pressure cuff onto the soft bag to increase the infusion pressure of the Peyman's miniphage, so that with it the pars plicata lensectomy and membranectomy became safer. We also developed ab interno iridectomy combined with pars plicata cataract surgery using the miniphage or wide-angle cutter vitrophage. By this new technique, angle closure glaucoma was prevented without excessive vitrectomy. Neither major intraoperative nor postoperative complications were encountered.

Introduction: Persistent fetal vasculature (PFV) is a congenital anomaly associated with significant surgical challenges, including a high risk of postoperative retinal detachment (RD). This study aimed to evaluate the impact of surgical approach and axial length (AL) on RD risk and visual outcomes in pediatric PFV management.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted involving 76 eyes of 74 patients who underwent cataract surgery for PFV between 2014 and 2022.

Purpose: To describe an alternate surgical technique for fluocinolone acetonide (Retisert) implantation in patients with extensive pars plana and pars plicata fibrosis secondary to chronic non-infectious uveitis.
Methods: This retrospective, interventional case series included five eyes of four patients who had poorly controlled chronic non-infectious uveitis. Retisert was implanted successfully using a novel approach.

Background: Ciliary body tumor is extremely rare and treatment is challenging. The aim of this study is to present our experience in treating this rare entity, especially large tumors with more than 5 clock hours of involvement, and to evaluate the surgical outcomes and complications of local resection via partial lamellar sclerouvectomy in four cases of ciliary body tumors in China.
Methods: Four patients with ciliary body tumors underwent partial lamellar sclerouvectomy between October 2019 and April 2023 in Shanghai General Hospital, China.

This study aims to investigate the outcomes and risk factors associated with poor vision (vision less than counting fingers, 2.0 logMAR, Snellen vision 20/2000) in patients with posterior or combined persistent fetal vasculature (PFV), with or without surgery. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients who were diagnosed with PFV from January 2008 to April 2021.
