The exfoliative syndrome is a risk factor of the extracapsular surgery of the crystalline. Thus, on a lot of 868 operated eyes for cataract through EEC +/- IOL, 10 were founded presenting the exfoliative syndrome (1,15%). On these cases it was possible to mark the increased incidence of the intra- and postoperative complications, such as the insufficient dilatation of the pupil, the tearing of the posterior capsule, the loss of the vitreous, the modifications of the corneal endothelium, the increasing of the postoperative intraocular pressure, as well as the more frequent opacification of the posterior capsule.

Background: To compare structural and vascular parameters between advanced pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (PXG) and primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG).
Methods: One hundred and six eyes of 81 patients were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. All patients underwent complete ophthalmic examination and measurement of the thickness of the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and ganglion cell complex (GCC).

Pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PXS) is an age-related fibrillopathy where fibrillar exfoliation material accumulates and deposits in ocular and extra-ocular tissue. Within the eye, this substance accumulates on the ocular surface and in the anterior segment of the eye, impacting ocular structures such as the conjunctiva, Tenon's capsule, sclera, cornea, iris, ciliary body, trabecular meshwork, and lens. This review aims to collate the current literature on how each anatomical part of the eye is affected by PXS, with a strong focus on molecular changes.

Erythroderma is a severe and heterogeneous inflammatory skin condition with little guidance on the approach to management in cases of unknown etiology. To guide therapeutic selection, we sought to create an immunophenotyping platform able to identify aberrant cell populations and cytokines in subtypes of erythroderma. We performed high-parameter flow cytometry on peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and whole blood of a patient with refractory idiopathic erythroderma, erythrodermic patients with Sézary syndrome and pityriasis rubra pilaris, and healthy controls.

Purpose: This study sought to analyze the effect of allele mutations and gene functions specific to glaucoma susceptibility among Africans.
Methods: Potentially relevant studies were retrieved from major bibliographic databases (PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science). Data were extracted and study-specific estimates were meta-analyzed using various models to obtain pooled results.

Background: The aim of the present study was to compare the rates of change in Ganglion Cell- Inner Plexiform Layer (GCIPL) and Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer (RNFL) thickness, as measured by Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) Guided Progression Analysis (GPA) program in control group, Primary Open Angle Glaucoma (POAG) and Pseudoexfoliation Glaucoma (PXG) eyes.
Methods: 60 POAG and 60 PXG patients and 30 control group patients were included in the study. Patients diagnosed with glaucoma were divided into two groups as mild (Mean deviation (MD) > -6.
