THE occurrence of crystals in the anterior chamber of the eye is extremely rare. Parfait-Landrau (1828) first reported the presence of crystals in the living eye. Schmidt (1831) observed a shower of silver and gold dust gush forth when he opened the anterior chamber of an eye blind for years. Blasius (1852) mentioned that 24 cases had been reported, rather a large number considering the rarity ...

A buffer solution containing I-albumin was washed to and fro through the anterior chamber of vervet monkeys gioen I-albumin systemically. The rate of outward flow of I-albumin and the accumulation of 'I-albumin in the solution were determined. In 5 monkeys the concentration of 'I-albumin in the newly formed aqueous was calculated to be an average 3 per cent of that in plasma for several hours. ...

PURPOSE To measure changes in anterior chamber structure before and after exercise in healthy individuals using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (ASOCT). METHODS Thirty-two healthy young individuals performed jogging for 20 min. Eye blinking rate was recorded during rest and exercise. The anterior chamber angle (ACA), angle opening distance at 500 μm from the scleral spur (AOD500...

BACKGROUND Atypical serous chorioretinopathy can present with symptoms similar to those of other pachychoroid diseases; however, a proper differential diagnosis will prevent unnecessary intensive treatments. To this end, we report on the shallowness of anterior chamber and transitory anterior vitreous cells in a patient with atypical severe serous retinal detachment. CASE PRESENTATION A 42-ye...

Intracameral injection of bevacizumab (Avastin) helped in the successful regression of an anterior chamber neovascular membrane in a painful blind eye. The effect was persistent even after six months of follow-up. This is the first report on intracameral administration of bevacizumab with six months of follow-up.

In this paper, we investigate the dynamics of tear film and the associated temperature variation for partial blinks. We investigate the mechanism of fluid supply during partial blink cycles, and compare the film thickness with observation in vivo. We find that varying the thickness of the fluid layer beneath the moving upper lid improves the agreement for the in vivo measurement of tear film th...

We describe a technique for femtosecond laser-assisted preparation of donor tissue for Boston type 1 keratoprosthesis to provide accurate double punching of the donor tissue for optimized alignment in the visual axis. The technique was reproducibly performed in four donor corneas mounted in an artificial anterior chamber. This technique can provide optically centered donor tissue with smooth tr...
