Anterior segment dysgenesis exerts its influence on a diverse array of ocular structures, encompassing the cornea, iris, ciliary body, anterior chamber and lens. We present a 20-month-old boy with bilateral corneal opacity. The visual acuity (VA) was 6/480 in both eyes.

Purpose: Among patients with angle-closure glaucoma, it is common to have a short-axial eye, which also makes it difficult to select an appropriate intraocular lens. Previous studies have focused on the ocular biometry of the long-axial eye, whereas only a few reports have focused on the short-axial eye. This study aimed to clarify the characteristics of the short-axial eye on ocular biometry among the elderly Japanese.

Purpose: To evaluate visual outcomes and quality of vision following bilateral implantation of a hydrophobic acrylic intraocular lens (IOL) in eyes targeted for emmetropia.
Methods: This was a prospective, single arm study. Subjects were bilaterally implanted with the Clareon PanOptix IOL and evaluated at 1 and 3 months postoperatively.
Five cases of transient anterior subcapsular vacuolar lens opacities following trabeculectomy using a dispersive ophthalmic viscosurgical device (OVD) performed by the same surgeon were reviewed at Shimane University Hospital from February to June 2024. All cases presented with anterior vacuolar subcapsular lens opacities observed seven days after surgery, which gradually resolved without specific interventions. Detailed surgical records and clinical outcomes were collected, and the findings suggest that these opacities, characterized by their transient and vacuolar appearance, should be recognized as an early complication of trabeculectomy, potentially linked to the use of dispersive OVDs.

Age-related cataracts (ARCs) are associated with increased oxidative stress and cellular senescence. Our objective is to investigate the function of Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) within ARCs. In ARCs tissues and HO-treated lens epithelial cells (LECs), the expression levels of SIRT1 were examined.
