results the mean udva (logmar) improved significantly from 1.13 ± 0.21 preoperatively to 0.24 ± 0.13 postoperatively (p < 0.001), and the mean cdva (logmar) improved significantly from 0.39 ± 0.12 to 0.19 ± 0.09 (p < 0.001). the mean cylinder of manifest refraction decreased significantly by 4.00 diopter (d) (p < 0.001). the mean spherical equivalent error (se) decreased significantly from −6.0...

We report cataract surgery with toric intraocular lens implantation for the management of senile cataract combined with pellucid marginal degeneration. A 72-year-old man with bilateral senile cataract and significant against-the-rule astigmatism sought counseling for blurry vision and glare, mostly in the right eye. Based on ophthalmic examination and corneal topography, a diagnosis of pellucid...

purpose: to report a patient with fuchs&apos; heterochromic iridocyclitis and pellucid corneal marginal degeneration. case report: a 37-year-old woman referred to poostchi eye clinic, shiraz, iran with complaint of low vision in both eyes especially in the left side since many years ago. on ophthalmologic examination, best-corrected visual acuity was 20/50 in right eye with refraction of -6.50-...

A 47-year-old woman with a history of pellucid marginal degeneration was referred for management of hydrops and peripheral perforation of the right cornea. The initial management with cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive and bandage contact lens did not preclude aqueous leakage the next day. Amniotic membrane grafting using both a surgical graft and a bandage patch was thus performed in the operating ...

Corneal ectasias include a group of disorders characterised by progressive thinning, bulging and distortion of the cornea. Keratoconus is the most common disease in this group. Other manifestations include pellucid marginal degeneration, Terrien's marginal degeneration, keratoglobus and ectasias following surgery. Advanced ectasias usually present with loss of vision due to high irregular astig...

PURPOSE To report the time course of changes in corneal wavefront aberrations in a patient with pellucid marginal degeneration. CASE A 59-year-old man with pellucid marginal degeneration was followed-up annually with slit-lamp microscopy and videokeratography for 11 years. The anterior corneal height data of the videokeratography were expanded into the set of orthogonal Zernike polynomials to...
