An 89-year-old woman with recurrent conjunctival mucoepidermoid carcinoma developed intraocular inflammation and an elevated fundus lesion that simulated choroidal detachment in her affected right eye. Intraocular invasion of squamous cell carcinoma was suspected and the eye was enucleated. Pathologic examination of the enucleated eye showed intraocular invasion by conjunctival mucoepidermoid c...

IMPORTANCE Additional data are sought regarding treatment options for glaucoma, a major cause of global blindness. BACKGROUND The study assessed outcomes following standalone implantation of two second-generation trabecular micro-bypass stents and postoperative topical prostaglandin in eyes with open-angle glaucoma not controlled on two preoperative medications. DESIGN The study design is a...

The use of intraocular lenses was a great advance in visual recovery after cataract surgery. Although usually with good biocompatibility, some alterations in the intraocular lens material may occur after implantation. Polymethylmethacrylate was the first intraocular lens material to be used on a large scale and assumed to be inert and well-tolerated. We present a rare case of late opacification...

This is a case of ocular malformations with presumable intraocular calcification based on computed tomography (CT) imaging, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ocular ultrasound (US) findings. The authors presented the clinical, imaging and pathological findings of this case. Intraocular calcification is the most important finding in retinoblastoma, which requires aggressive management. It is ...

This case report describes a case of Alagille syndrome with developing intraocular lens subluxation and rhegmatogenous retinal detachment 4 years after cataract surgery. A 15-year-old female patient with Alagille syndrome-associated cataracts in both eyes underwent phacoemulsification aspiration and intraocular lens implantation. Four years postoperative, intraocular lens subluxation developed ...

AIM To analyze the outcome of combined clear cornea phacoemulsification, vitrectomy, foreign body extraction, and intraocular lens implantation in patients with traumatic cataract and intraocular foreign body. METHODS Retrospective analysis included the results of combined cataract and vitreoretinal surgery in 16 patients. All patients had a penetrating eye injury, traumatic cataract, and int...

introduction: in cases of poor satisfaction with aphakic glasses and intolerant or reluctant to use contact lenses, secondary intraocular lens (iol) implantation provide an alternative aphakic vision correction. this study aimed to evaluate surgical problems.  intraoperative and postoperative complications and visual acuity outcomes of secondary anterior and posterior chamber intraocular lens i...

The influence of common carotid occlusion on intraocular pressure was studied in rabbits by perfusion and tonographic techniques. Bilateral common carotid occlusion caused a greater ocular volume change than homolateral occlusion. If homolateral occlusion was followed by contralateral occlusion, there was consistently an additional fall in intraocular pressure. The initial fall in intraocular p...

artery blood flow and the retinal oxygen tension, however, remained elevated for 15 min. Discussion. The VER from anesthetized animals has been extensively studied by others, and our recordings are similar to those they have obtained. It is not clear which cortical structures generate the different waves of the VER, but in the eye it appears to be primarily foveal in origin. We have previously ...

introduction: cataract is an opacified lens and senile cataract is a common disorder. it is desirable to reduce intraocular pressure (iop) in order to minimize intra and post operative difficulties and complications. many researches have studied the effects of muscle relaxants on iop. comparison effect of atracurium and pancuronium on iop has been evaluated in one study with a small sample size...
