Background: Pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PEX) is a complex systemic disorder of the extracellular matrix primarily affecting eye and visceral organs. In this age-related disease fibrillar material produced accumulates in many ocular extraocular tissues. Objective: To study prevalence pseudoexfoliation among patients with sensorineural hearing loss. Patients Methods: A cross-sectional study, cond...

Pseudoexfoliation syndrome is characterised by the production and progressive accumulation of fibrillar extracellular material within different ocular tissues, and its incidence varies considerably according to geographical location. Cataract surgery in pseudoexfoliative patients is associated with a higher rate of complications, which are more common the more advanced the cataract. For this re...

Surgical management of ectopia lentis is one of the major challenges faced by cataract surgeons today. Ectopia lentis signifies a displacement or malposition of the crystalline lens, irrespective of cause. It may occur congenitally or as part of developmental anomalies, as found in Marfan syndrome, homocystinuria, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, hyperlysinemia, sulfite oxidase deficiency, simple primar...

Aim: To study the clinical profile of pseudoexfoliation (PEX) syndrome and Pseudoexfoliation glaucoma at tertiary care centre in Kashmir. Materials Methods: A cross sectional consisting 100 PEX PEXG patiens, attending general ophthalmology clinic a center kashmir. All patients underwent complete ophthalmologic evaluation including recording IOP,gonioscopy Central Corneal Thickness(CCT). Results...

purpose: to determine hearing thresholds at sound frequencies important for speech comprehension in subjects with ocular pseudoexfoliation (pxf) and to compare them with that of controls without pxf. methods: eighty-three subjects with ocular pxf and 83 age and sex matched controls without pxf were enrolled in this case-control study. pure tone audiometry (bone conduction) was performed at 1, 2...

BACKGROUND Pseudoexfoliation is the most common identifiable cause of secondary glaucoma and pseudoexfoliation patients have higher rates of intraoperative and postoperative complications of cataract surgery compared to those without the condition. Hence, the objective of this study was to assess the clinical characteristics of pseudoexfoliation syndrome among cataract patients examined at Jimm...
