  • Cosmetic Lateral Canthoplasty: Lateral Topic Canthoplasty to Lengthen the Lateral Canthal Angle and Correct the Outer Tail of the Eye
    Cosmetic Lateral Canthoplasty: Lateral Topic Canthoplasty to Lengthen the Lateral Canthal Angle and Correct the Outer Tail of the Eye Soo Wook Chae1, Byung Min Yun2 1BY Plastic Surgery Clinic, Seoul; 2Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Jeju National University, Jeju, Korea There are many women who want larger and brighter eyes that will give a favorable impression. Correspondence: Soo Wook Chae Surgical methods that make the eye larger and brighter include double eyelidplasty, epican- BY Plastic Surgery Clinic, Wookyung Bldg. 5th Fl., 466 Apgujeong-ro, thoplasty, as well as lateral canthoplasty. Double eyelidplasty produces changes in the vertical Gangnam-gu, Seoul 06015, Korea dimension of the eyes, whereas epicanthoplasty and lateral canthoplasty create changes in Tel: +82-2-541-5522 the horizontal dimension of the eyes. Epicanthoplasty, a surgical procedure which enlarges Fax: +82-2-545-8743 the eye horizontally, is performed at the inner corner of the eye, whereas lateral canthoplasty E-mail: [email protected] enlarges the outer edge of the eye. In particular, if the slant of the palpebral fissure is raised and the horizontal dimension of the palpebral fissure is short, adjusting the slant of the pal- pebral fissure through lateral canthoplasty can achieve an enlargement of eye width and smoother features. Depending on the patient’s condition, even better results can be achieved if this procedure is performed in conjunction with other procedures, such as double eyelid- plasty, epicanthoplasty, eye roll formation surgery, fat graft, and facial bone contouring sur- gery. In this paper, the authors will introduce in detail their surgical method for a cosmetic lateral canthoplasty that lengthens the lateral canthal angle and corrects the outer tail of the eyes, in order to ease the unfavorable impression.

  • Cataract Surgery
    Cataract surgery From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search This article includes a list of references, related reading or external links, but its sources remain unclear because it lacks inline citations. Please improve this article by introducing more precise citations. (May 2011) Cataract surgery Intervention Cataract in Human Eye- Magnified view seen on examination with a slit lamp ICD-9-CM 13.19 MeSH D002387 Cataract surgery is the removal of the natural lens of the eye (also called "crystalline lens") that has developed an opacification, which is referred to as a cataract. Metabolic changes of the crystalline lens fibers over time lead to the development of the cataract and loss of transparency, causing impairment or loss of vision. Many patients' first symptoms are strong glare from lights and small light sources at night, along with reduced acuity at low light levels. During cataract surgery, a patient's cloudy natural lens is removed and replaced with a synthetic lens to restore the lens's transparency.[1] Following surgical removal of the natural lens, an artificial intraocular lens implant is inserted (eye surgeons say that the lens is "implanted"). Cataract surgery is generally performed by an ophthalmologist (eye surgeon) in an ambulatory (rather than inpatient) setting, in a surgical center or hospital, using local anesthesia (either topical, peribulbar, or retrobulbar), usually causing little or no discomfort to the patient. Well over 90% of operations are successful in restoring useful vision, with a low complication rate.[2] Day care, high volume, minimally invasive, small incision phacoemulsification with quick post-op recovery has become the standard of care in cataract surgery all over the world.

  • Primary External Dacryocystorhinostomy
    11 Primary External Dacryocystorhinostomy Richard H. Hart, Suzanne Powrie, and Geoffrey E. Rose The watering eye may be the result of excessive tear production, abnor- malities of lid position or movement, lacrimal canalicular pump failure, or obstruction of the outfl ow tract. With external dacryocystorhinos- tomy (DCR), the lacrimal sac is directly incorporated into the lateral wall of the nose, so that the canaliculi drain directly into the nasal cavity. The aims of surgery are twofold: to eliminate fl uid and mucus reten- tion within the lacrimal sac and prevent sac enlargement (as a muco- cele) – the latter leading to intermittent viscous ocular discharge – and to bypass the higher hydraulic resistance of the nasolacrimal duct, thereby increasing tear conductance and aiding the relief of epiphora. Indications for Surgery 1. Primary acquired nasolacrimal duct obstruction 2. Secondary acquired nasolacrimal duct obstruction attributed, for example, to dacryolithiasis, endonasal surgery, infl ammatory nasal or sinus disease, or prior midfacial injury 3. Persistent congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction, often after unsuccessful probing or intubation of the nasolacrimal duct 4. Functional obstruction of lacrimal outfl ow with decreased tear conductance as a result of: (a) Stenosis, but not occlusion, of the nasolacrimal duct (b) Lacrimal canalicular pump failure from age-related laxity of the lower eyelid, or after facial nerve palsy 5. Acute or chronic dacryocystitis; the former group requiring initial treatment with systemic antibiotics Surgical Principles External DCR should establish a low-resistance drainage pathway between the conjunctival tear sac and the nasal cavity, by conversion of the lacrimal sac into part of the lateral nasal wall.

  • Summary of Safety and Effectivness (SSED)
    SUMMARY OF SAFETY AND EFFECTIVENESS DATA (SSED) I. GENERAL INFORMATION Device Generic Name: Intraocular Pressure Lowering Implant Device Trade Name: Hydrus® Microstent Device Procode: OGO Applicant’s Name and Address: Ivantis, Inc. 38 Discovery, Suite 150 Irvine, CA 92618 Date(s) of Panel Recommendation: None Premarket Approval Application (PMA) Number: P170034 Date of FDA Notice of Approval: August 10, 2018 II. INDICATIONS FOR USE The Hydrus® Microstent is indicated for use in conjunction with cataract surgery for the reduction of intraocular pressure (IOP) in adult patients with mild to moderate primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). III. CONTRAINDICATIONS The Hydrus® Microstent is contraindicated under the following circumstances or conditions: • In eyes with angle closure glaucoma • In eyes with traumatic, malignant, uveitic, or neovascular glaucoma or discernible congenital anomalies of the anterior chamber (AC) angle. IV. WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS The warnings and precautions can be found in the Hydrus® Microstent labeling. V. DEVICE DESCRIPTION The Hydrus® Microstent is a crescent-shaped, implantable microstent pre-loaded onto a hand-held delivery system. The microstent (Figure 1) is composed of nitinol, a metal alloy of nickel (Ni) and titanium (Ti) with super-elastic properties. The implant is laser cut from nitinol tubing to a design with alternating “spines” for structural support and “windows” to provide PMA P170034: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 1 outflow pathways for aqueous humor. After laser cutting, the shape of the implant is heat-set to a curvature intended to match the curvature of Schlemm’s canal and is electro- polished to create a smooth surface. The microstent is approximately 8 mm in overall length with major and minor axes of 292 µm and 185 µm, respectively.

Lay summary — Los Angeles Times September 4, White light is an example of a broadband source with lower power. OCT is based on low-coherence interferometry. October Any light that is outside the short coherence length will not interfere. An imaging approach to temporal OCT was developed by Claude Boccara's team in[24] with an acquisition of the images without beam scanning. Light with broad bandwidths can be generated by using superluminescent diodes or lasers with extremely short pulses femtosecond lasers. Bibcode : OExpr.

Synthetic array heterodyne detection offers another approach to this problem without the need for high dispersion. Free Shipping Free global shipping No minimum order. Therefore, translating one arm of the interferometer has two functions; depth scanning and a Doppler-shifted optical carrier are accomplished by pathlength variation.
