Mono vs. multi-therapy in IOP control

This randomised control trial studied newly diagnosed glaucoma patients given mono‐ or multi‐therapy regarding differences in initial intraocular pressure (IOP) reduction, target IOP levels reached and influence of untreated baseline IOP on IOP reduction. Patients newly diagnosed with manifest primary...

Capsular tension rings to reduce refractive shift

The study group aimed to determine whether the use of a capsular tension ring (CTR) can increase refractive stability in patients with implantation of two different trifocal intraocular lenses. This was a prospective, consecutive series of eyes which underwent refractive...

Outcome of secondary intraocular lens implantation-conventional 23- vs. modified 27-gauge vitrectomy port anchor fixation

This retrospective case study series evaluated the outcome of a secondary intraocular lens (IOL) implantation technique of a Carlevale IOL (Soleko IOL Division, Italy) with either a conventional 23- or a modified 27-gauge (-g) vitrectomy port used as anchor fixation....

Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) of the lacrimal sac

The authors present a case series of three patients with known CLL, two of which presented with mass and epiphora and one case with epiphora alone. All three patients had initially being diagnosed and were treated for chronic dacryocystitis. Histopathological...

Ophthalmology

The textbook is a large, single volume that ideally needs to be desk or table-supported, as its sheer weight makes it virtually impossible to rest comfortably on ones lap. The book is compiled by its two lead authors and editors...

Suture-less flanged IOL fixation vs. conventional sutured SF in IOL dislocation

The authors report the analysis of a prospective, comparative cohort study on 103 consecutive patients (103 eyes) with intraocular lens (IOL) dislocation who underwent vitrectomy with IOL removal and sutured scleral fixation (SF) (53 eyes) or flanged IOL fixation (50...

Blame the lens – not its position – in refractive surprise

Aetiology of postoperative refractive surprise Weber coined the term “wrong eye, wrong intraocular lens, wrong patient” in 2008 as an aide memoir of major factors believed to underlie refractive surprise – defined as a significant unintended difference between dioptric refraction...

Warfarin Induced Suprachoroidal Haemorrhage Presenting as Acute Angle Closure Glaucoma

Spontaneous suprachoroidal haemorrhage is a rare but recognised entity. Anticoagulant therapy is a well known risk factor. We describe a case of warfarin induced suprachoroidal haemorrhage presenting as acute angle closure glaucoma in a patient with raised International Normalised Ratio...

Stereopsis changes with cataract

Stereoacuity was compared preoperatively to six weeks postoperative after cataract extraction and intraocular lens (IOL) implant. The authors evaluated the association of postoperative stereoacuity with visual acuity, age and duration of preoperative symptoms. This prospective study recruited 142 patients: 92...

Pearls and tricks of the flanged IOL sutures fixation

Complications in cataract surgery are often a nightmare for surgeons. Intraoperative complications are more common in diabetic patients, and solving aphakia in these cases remains a challenge. In a recently published study, Dr Matias Iglicki, Dr Dinah Zur and colleagues...
