Aim: To investigate and compare the effects of pterygium surgery on mean anterior surface Simulated Keratometry (SimK) Holladay Equivalent Readings-65 (EKR65) detail report.
 Methods: Patients who underwent between August 2022 January 2023 were examined. All surgeries performed under local anesthesia with conjunctival autograft method. Pentacam topography was after detailed ophthalmologica...

PURPOSE The exoenzyme S regulatory protein ExsA regulates a type III secretion system in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In vitro, cytotoxic strains use this system to secrete exotoxin (Exo)U and ExoT causing cytotoxicity and inhibiting their phagocytosis by epithelial cells. Invasive P. aeruginosa secrete ExoT and ExoS, but exsA mutation has little impact on their short-term interactions with epitheli...

Background: Recent years have seen a major change in practice of local anaesthesia (LA) for cataract surgery. Aims: (i) To estimate current usage of LA techniques for cataract surgery, (ii) to estimate the incidence of severe adverse events associated with each LA technique, (iii) to compare with our previous 2003 study. Methods: This was a prospective, observational study of routine practice. ...

Report of a Case. The patient, born by cesarean delivery at 38 weeks’ gestation and weighing 3760 g, was the first child (male) of healthy parents. Bilateral polydactyly was observed at birth (Figure, A). At 2 months of age, he was admitted to another hospital and developmental glaucoma was suspected based on findings of enlarged corneal diameter, ocular hypertension, and bilateral abnormal opt...

purpose: to evaluate the correlation between corneal power and corneal horizontal white to white diameter in myopic patients scheduled for lasik surgery. methods: overall, in 840 eyes of 420 myopic subjects scheduled for lasik, horizontal white to white diameter and mean corneal power were obtained using orbscan ii. pearson correlation test and regression analysis were used to detect any correl...

purpose: to present two patients with acute corneal hydrops, superimposed with infectious keratitis using topical steroids. patients and findings: the first case was a 44-year-old man with acute corneal hydrops in his left eye which was on topical steroids for one week. visual acuity was hand motion at presentation and there was a large epithelial defect with stromal infiltration and corneal ed...

Purpose The purpose of the paper is to report a case bilateral inferior iridoschisis who underwent cataract surgery with intraocular lens implantation successfully help iris hooks or pupillary expanders. Design/methodology/approach A 71-year-old male presented in both eyes, history angle closure glaucoma (ACG), and shallow anterior chamber (AC) angles inferiorly. localized area stroma cleaved t...

Background: To investigate the relationship between high-order aberration (HOA) changes and RCST/CT (residual corneal stroma thickness/corneal thickness) after femtosecond LASIK surgery.
