It also encompasses surgery first performed centuries ago, such as rudimentary pterygium excision, to the latest in keratorefractive surgery. CATARACT EXTRACTION AND INTRAOCULAR LENS IMPLANTATION The many reasons for the development of cataracts are discussed in detail in Chapter 8. Most cataracts are acquired, but they can also be congenital. This section focuses primarily on the treatment of acquired cataracts in adults. Cataracts in adults are generally age related, but some lens opacities may result from other causes such as trauma, inflammation, systemic illness such as diabetes, or medications such as corticosteroids. Cataracts generally advance slowly over years but can advance rapidly over months, or even faster in some patients. The primary indication for cataract extraction is diminished vision caused by the cataract, significantly affecting the patient's lifestyle. The exact point at which this hardship occurs depends on the patient. Certain patients require little visual function and may delay cataract surgery for years or indefinitely. Other patients with high visual needs seek cataract surgery with much smaller degrees of visual loss.

See end of article for Purpose: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of temporary tarsorrhaphy using authors affiliations super glue in the management of corneal disorders. … ……………………… Material and Methods: A retrospective chart review of 46 consecutive patients who underwent superglue tarsorrhaphy from June 1997 to June 1998 was Correspondence to: performed. All patients were managed at the Institute of Ophthalmology, Mayo Mohammad Moin hospital, Lahore. This study included patients with painful non healing corneal Department of Ophthalmology ulcers, exposure keratopathy (secondary to moderate proptosis), dry eyes (to Mayo Hospital reduce surface area of evaporation) and post-operative patients with conjunctival Lahore flaps ± scleral grafts (to help take up of the graft). Patients with corneal perforations, endopthalmitis or panophthalmitis were excluded from the study. Temporary tarsorrhaphy was done using super glue technique in which the upper eyelashes were glued to the lower lid skin. The degree of lid closure was calculated according to the pre-existing corneal pathology. Patients were followed up on a weekly basis for one month to check for reduction of pain, improvement of corneal pathology and duration of tarsorrhaphy. Results: There were 50 eyes of 46 patients included in the study who underwent super glue tarsorrhaphy for various corneal pathologies. There were 36 males and 10 female patients with an average age of 40 years (range 10-60 yrs). Thirty two eyes had keratitis (fungal, bacterial, disciform, dendritic), 5 had a persistent epithelial defect, 4 had exposure keratopathy secondary to moderate proptosis, 5 had conjunctival flap alone or combined with a scleral graft and 4 had dry eyes.

COOPER London Summary Surgical outcome after ophthalmic zoster was analysed with respect to cataract, glaucoma, corneal ulceration and scarring. We used data from the Zoster Clinic and Hospital Activity Analysis (HAA) at Moorfields Eye Hospital and a lipid keratopathy database at the Western Ophthalmic Hospital. Conventional surgery for cataract, glaucoma and corneal scarring gave good results which were probably no different from experience with routine cases, although there was a tendency for prolonged post-operative inflammation. Lateral and central tarsorrhaphy for neuroparalytic ulceration almost invariably led to rapid healing. Many ophthalmologists are apprehensive glaucoma.6 Corneal scarring follows a small about operating on eyes that have been number of nummular, disciform and scle­ affected by herpes zoster ophthalmicus rokeratitis, sometimes forming a vascularised because they fear peroperative and post­ lipid keratopathy6 but otherwise complicates operative complications associated with neuroparalytic and exposure keratitis.
