68 eyes in which Choyce Mark VIII anterior chamber lenses had been implanted were examined, all surgery having been performed by Mr. Choyce. The average time since implantation was 5-5 years aand in 85 per cent. of eyes the corrected visual acuity was 6/12 or better. Bullous keratopathy, corneal epithelial oedema, and peripheral anterior synechiae giving rise to glaucoma were the most serious c...

A 64-year-old Caucasian man referred for decreased vision after selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT). Slit lamp examination revealed diffuse corneal edema. Despite intensive topical treatment including steroids, corneal edema did not resolve; on the contrary, it advanced to bullous keratopathy.

The first cases of pseudoexfoliation of the lens to be found in Australian Aborigines are reported. The prevalence rate in the communities in central Australia is 1-3% and for those 61 years and older is 16-3%. Within the limits of our assessment glaucoma was an associated finding in 8-1% of these cases. A high incidence of old trachoma, previous trauma, and Labrador keratopathy was also noted ...

purpose: to compare corneal biomechanical properties and intraocular pressure (iop) in eyes with pseudophakic bullous keratopathy (pbk) before and after descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (dsaek). methods: this prospective non-randomizedintrasubject comparative study was conducted on 44eyes of 22 patients with the diagnosis ofpbk who underwent dsaek in one eye.intraocular pre...

OBJECTIVE To determine mean change in visual acuity, central corneal thickness and symptoms in patients with pseudophakic bullous keratopathy after treatment with corneal collagen crosslinking. METHODS This quasi experimental study was conducted at Armed Forces Institute of Ophthalmology, Rawalpindi, Pakistan from April 2015 to Nov 2015. A total of 24 eyes of 24 patients were included in the ...

Objective: Purpose of the study is to carry out a prospective study to analyze the utilization of donor corneas for different pathological conditions and the visual outcome afterpenetrating keratoplasty (PK). Methods: A prospective investigational analysis of 100 donor corneas used forPK between June 2006 and June 2008with a follow-up of 12 months, was conducted to analyse the indications and v...
