BACKGROUND Avellino corneal dystrophy (ACD) is an autosomal dominant disorder, characterized by the presence of deposits in the anterior stroma, and results from a specific mutation (R124H) in the transforming growth factor beta-induced gene (TGFBI). This report presents corneal dystrophy of the Bowman layer as a rare phenotypic appearance of ACD and a high intra-familial variability of phenoty...

PURPOSE To report infraorbital nerve dysfunction after laser in situ keratomileusis. DESIGN Observational case report. METHODS Neuro-ophthalmologic examination with brain and orbital magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and orbital computed tomography (CT). RESULTS During laser in situ keratomileusis, two healthy women, aged 42 and 46 years, experienced acute onset of sharp ipsilateral cheek ...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effects of excimer laser in situ keratomileusis in correcting severe myopia and astigmatism after penetrating keratoplasty. METHODS Excimer laser in situ keratomileusis was performed on ten eyes of ten patients to correct high ametropia in cases having previously undergone penetrating keratoplasty. RESULTS After surgery, all grafts remained clear and no corneal gra...

FROM time to time there reappear among the archives of great families manuscripts and mementos of their distinguished forebears, and the fortunate investigator is enabled to produce a little new evidence bearing on the lives of great men. In the possession of Sir John Bowman of Newbury are a great number of papers originally belonging to his great grandfather, the illustrious Victorian doctor S...

UNLABELLED INTRODUCTION Laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis surgery may induce postoperative changes in the vitreomacular interface due to the mechanical stretch of the vitreous produced by the suction ring and the shock waves generated by the excimer laser and, subsequently, may provoke macular hole formation. CASE PRESENTATION A 53-year-old Spanish woman who had undergone a laser-assis...
