The authors operated on a patient who had bilateral ocular hypotony after severe blunt ocular trauma with subsequent circular cyclodialysis and luxation of the lenses. Because of the specific situation, none of the previously reported procedures could be applied. A new surgical technique was used to circularly refixate the ciliary body ab interno. The method described here is simple and can be recommended as an alternative technique to refixate the ciliary body in all aphakic or pseudophakic eyes with persistent ocular hypotony caused by traumatic or surgically induced cyclodialysis.

Short stature, joint hyperextension, ocular hypotension, Rieger abnormalities, and delayed tooth eruption (SHORT) syndrom is a rare primary autosomal dominant genetic disorder mainly caused by pathogenic loss-of-function variants in the phosphoinositide-3-kinase regulatory subunit 1 (PIK3R1) gene. We report the case of a Chinese adult female patient with SHORT syndrome, carrying a PIK3R1 gene variant (c.1945C > T), who developed abnormal glucose metabolism and severe postprandial insulin resistance over 9 years.

Objective: This study compared ocular and cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (oVEMP and cVEMP) among individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD) without dizziness, with nonspecific dizziness (dizziness without orthostatic hypotension), or with dizziness combined with orthostatic hypotension.
Materials And Methods: We prospectively analyzed 30 of each of the three types of individuals who were admitted to Yongchuan Hospital of Chongqing Medical University (Chongqing, China) between June 2022 and April 2023. The three groups received oVEMP and cVEMP measurements using an electromyography-evoked potential system.
Introduction: The aim of our study was to assess the outcome of Gore-Tex sutures in minimally invasive scleral fixation of subluxated posterior chamber intraocular lenses (PCIOLs) and to demonstrate a method for validating the lens position.
Methods: Retrospective study of patients who underwent lasso in-the-bag scleral fixation of a subluxated PCIOL using the snare technique with Gore-Tex suture from 2019 to 2021 in a single tertiary medical center. Functional outcome was analyzed by clinical assessment, and anatomical outcome, by ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM).

Aim: To assess the utility and efficiency of endoscopy-assisted vitrectomy (EAV) for the treatment of corneal opacity in severe ocular trauma.
Methods: Patients who underwent fundus examination using a preoperative slit lamp and intraoperative endoscopy, followed by EAV and additional surgery were retrospectively recruited. Silicone oil removal and penetrating keratoplasty were used in selected eyes at postoperative follow-ups.

Purpose: To investigate the surgical effect of complete drainage of suprachoroidal fluid (SCF) before vitrectomy to avoid perioperative steroids in rhegmatogenous retinal detachment combined with choroidal detachment (RRD-CD) eyes.
Methods: It was a prospective, randomized controlled trial. 58 eyes were randomly divided into the no steroids (NS) group and local steroids (LS) group, 29 eyes each, respectively.
