Objective: This study aims to report a case of Glaucoma Drainage Device (GDD) implant surgery in patient who experienced an increase Intraocular Pressure (IOP) after long term trabeculectomy. Case Presentation: A 58-year-old male came with complaint blurred vision since two years ago. Patient did not complain sore and red eyes. He was given 2 x 250 mg Acetazolamide, 1 tablet Aspar K, right left...

purpose: to investigate the proportion and time trend of second-eye senile cataract surgery (secs) in a high-turnover academic center in iran. methods: in this cross-sectional study, samples were selected among all records of senile cataract surgery based on the international statistical classification of diseases and related health problems, 10th revision (icd-10) during four consecutive years...

We aimed to present the differential diagnosis and treatment of Descemet membrane detachment (DMD) in a patient with acute corneal edema after phacoemulsification surgery. A 52-year-old female presented our clinic visual impairment secondary DMD, which was noticed on postoperative 16th day routine surgery left eye. On day, acuity case was; 0.8 right eye from 50 cm at level counting finger. In b...

OBJECTIVE To compare horizontal eye positions between proptotic thyroid eye disease patients and normal individuals, and to examine positional changes after orbital decompression surgery in thyroid eye disease patients. METHODS The present case-controlled and retrospective comparative study included 78 proptotic thyroid eye disease patients who underwent bilateral orbital decompression surger...

To review a case with isoametropic, accomodative esotropic amblyopia and congenital posterior polar cataract. A 12 years old child with visual acuities 2/10 7/10, refractive error +9,00/ +7,00 and congenital cataract was observed previously for 5 years until the visual acuity of the right eye dropped 2 lines due to cataract in the more amblyopic eye. At first more amblyopic eye was operated and...

PURPOSE Patient eye and head movements during laser refractive surgery may result in errors between the surgical beam position and the desired location for optimum correction. This, in turn, may lead to reduced postoperative vision, including increased higher order aberrations of the eye. Active eye tracking systems are often incorporated into laser delivery systems, which aim to reduce the eff...

Computer and robot assisted eye surgery has great potential to address common problems encountered in many eye surgery tasks including poor visualization, lack of force sensing, hand tremor, and accessibility. Positional feedback of the instruments relative to the eye can be used to prevent undesirable collisions, improve remote center of motion interaction, and possibly automate tasks like ins...

Accidental removal of the lacrimal gland is a rare complication of ptosis surgery. We report two children who underwent large unilateral levator palpebrae superioris resections (LPSr). After surgery, both patients developed dry eye. Post-operatively, the parents of both patients noticed no tears in the affected eye when their child cried. Computed tomography proved the absence of the lacrimal g...

AIM To investigate the effect that squint surgery has on pupillary diameter. METHODS The effect of squint surgery on pupil size was investigated in 19 patients. RESULTS A significant mydriasis in the operated eye was observed when compared with the unoperated eye. This was independent of the number or type of extraocular muscles operated upon. CONCLUSION It is hypothesised that this chang...

Soft Tissue Laser Surgery is different from Hard Tissue Laser Surgery (bones and teeth in dentistry) and Laser Eye Surgery (eye sight corrective surgeries) by particular types of lasers. Lasers differ from each other by the wavelength of light they produce. The most commonly used surgical laser in soft tissue surgery is the CO2 laser. The CO2 laser wavelength (10.6 micrometers) is highly absorb...
