Introduction: Cataract is a leading cause of visual impairment globally and in Malaysia, with surgery being the definitive treatment. While intracapsular cataract extraction (ICCE) is now less commonly performed due to advancements in surgical techniques, it remains essential in specific cases, such as those with weak zonular support. This study aims to evaluate the incidence, clinical profiles, and visual outcomes of patients who underwent ICCE, with or without intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, at Hospital Melaka, Malaysia, over the past decade.

Objectives This study aimed to identify the etiology and the direction of dislocation of the natural crystalline lens or intraocular lens (IOL) in IOL intrascleral fixation surgery and to determine the change in intraocular pressure (IOP) after surgery. Methods We retrospectively investigated the diagnosis, direction of lens and IOL dislocation, and IOP before and after surgery (preoperatively and one day, one week, and one month postoperatively) in 236 eyes from 228 patients who underwent IOL intrascleral fixation at Chiba University Hospital between February 2015 and September 2020. Results IOL intrascleral fixation was performed in 48 (20.

Purpose To identify and characterize incident cases of strabismus and interocular visual acuity among infants post lensectomy for congenital cataract. Method This was a single-centre retrospective chart review of all children aged less than 12 months who underwent lensectomy from 1st January 2014 to 1st January 2021. Cases were identified from theatre coding and electronic medical records.

Article Synopsis
- Secondary angle closure glaucoma (SACG) differs from primary angle closure glaucoma, often presenting acutely and involving various ocular and systemic associations, which can complicate diagnosis and treatment.
- *Prompt diagnosis is crucial, and the video outlines different imaging techniques like optical coherence tomography and ultrasound biomicroscopy to identify the causes of SACG effectively.
- *The video highlights the various mechanisms behind SACG, including those with and without pupillary block, and offers insights on their treatment options.*

Article Synopsis
- Delayed cataract surgery can lead to lens-induced glaucoma (LIG), and a study in Malaysia analyzed the demographics and outcomes of patients with LIG who underwent surgery between 2019 and 2020.* -
- Out of 3233 cataract surgeries, 24 patients with LIG were studied; most were over 60 years old, primarily Malay, and presented with severe visual impairment and high intraocular pressure.* -
- Post-surgery, a majority of patients experienced significant improvement in intraocular pressure and visual acuity, although some faced complications, highlighting the need for timely cataract treatment to prevent serious conditions like LIG.*
