Purpose. To evaluate anterior segment's structures by Pentacam in patients with tilted disc syndrome (TDS). Methods. Group 1 included forty-six eyes of forty-six patients who have the TDS. Group 2 including forty-six eyes of forty-six cases was the control group which was equal to the study group in age, gender, and refraction. A complete ophthalmic examination was performed in both groups. All...

PURPOSE To compare conventional laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI) and LPI combined with laser peripheral iridoplasty in eyes with primary angle closure suspect (PACS) by assessment of anterior chamber dimensional changes using a Pentacam. METHODS Forty-eight eyes of 24 subjects with bilateral PACS were recruited consecutively. Each eye was randomly allocated to treatment with conventional LPI,...

WITH the advent of the active secretion theory of formation of the aqueous humour, increasing importance has been attached to knowledge of the rates at which the various constituents of this fluid enter the eye (cf. Langham, 1958). This information is required in order to reach some understanding of aqueous humour dynamics and also to assist in elucidating the nature and action of the secreting...

PURPOSE To present a unique case of a 58-year-old female with toxic anterior segment syndrome (TASS), following a triple procedure: Descemet's stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK), phacoemulsification and posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation. METHODS The patient was treated with topical dexamethasone sodium phosphate 0.1% and topical atropine sulfate 1%. Due to a sl...

PURPOSE To evaluate the difference in terms of refractive errors and anterior segment parameters between schizophrenic patients and healthy volunteers. METHODS This study compared 70 patients (48 men) who were diagnosed with schizophrenia with a control group of 60 (35 men) who were similar in terms of age, gender, education, and socioeconomic level. Anterior segment examination was performed...

the authors report a rare and curious case of massive uveitis with an exudative mass in the anterior chamber rather resembling the crystalline lens. they followed up the case clinically and took a series of photographs showing its rapid evolution. the exudative mass was atfor a dislocation of the lens in the anterior chamber

The present study introduces a rare case with secondary glaucoma due to anterior chamber lipoma and uveitis in a Pekingese dog in Iran. A four-year-old castrated male Pekingese dog was referred to the private clinic with impaired vision of the left eye, pain, rubbing the left eye onto carpet, presence of a milkycoloured mass into the anterior chamber, and loss of appetite. The clinical examinat...
