There has been a paradigm shift towards the use of sutureless methods of Haptic exposure scleral fixation to avoid suture-related complications. In the latest described style of scleral fixation, IOLs can be Intraocular lens (IOL) secured without suture or “glue”, and rather with the creation of a flange on each haptic that allows for firm intrascleral fixation. We describe a modification of the flange technique to refixate patients with glued IOLs who developed haptic extrusion and required surgical intervention. 1.

Methods: The study includes 22 eyes of 22 consecutive patients (20 males and 2 females) who presented with total LSCD after unilateral chemical burns and underwent Limbal transplantation (LT) in the Cornea Service of the Depart- ment of Ophthalmology at the Heraklion University Hospital in Crete during the period from 1997 to 2014. All 22 cases underwent Conjunctival Limbal autogaft (CLAU) while in 14 surgeries it was combined with amniotic membrane trans- plantation (AMT). A second stage penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) was performed in 11 cases for visual rehabilitation. The healing time, the changes in VA and the stability of epithelial ocular surface integrity were looked for. Results: One case failed within 3 months of surgery, while the rest 21 eyes after CLAU maintained ocular surface epithelial integrity during the follow up period (7.8 ± 3.5 years), and showed improvement partially or totally in corneal neovascularization, symblepharon and ocular motility.

  • PITX2 and FOXC1 Spectrum of Mutations in Ocular Syndromes
    European Journal of Human Genetics (2012) 20, 1224–1233 & 2012 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 1018-4813/12 www.nature.com/ejhg ARTICLE PITX2 and FOXC1 spectrum of mutations in ocular syndromes Linda M Reis1, Rebecca C Tyler1, Bethany A Volkmann Kloss1,2,KalaFSchilter1,2, Alex V Levin3,RBrianLowry4, Petra JG Zwijnenburg5,ElizaStroh3,UlrichBroeckel1, Jeffrey C Murray6 and Elena V Semina*,1,2 Anterior segment dysgenesis (ASD) encompasses a broad spectrum of developmental conditions affecting anterior ocular structures and associated with an increased risk for glaucoma. Various systemic anomalies are often observed in ASD conditions such as Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome (ARS) and De Hauwere syndrome. We report DNA sequencing and copy number analysis of PITX2 and FOXC1 in 76 patients with syndromic or isolated ASD and related conditions. PITX2 mutations and deletions were found in 24 patients with dental and/or umbilical anomalies seen in all. Seven PITX2-mutant alleles were novel including c.708_730del, the most C-terminal mutation reported to date. A second case of deletion of the distant upstream but not coding region of PITX2 was identified, highlighting the importance of this recently discovered mechanism for ARS. FOXC1 deletions were observed in four cases, three of which demonstrated hearing and/or heart defects, including a patient with De Hauwere syndrome; no nucleotide mutations in FOXC1 were identified. Review of the literature identified several other patients with 6p25 deletions and features of De Hauwere syndrome. The 1.3-Mb deletion of 6p25 presented here defines the critical region for this phenotype and includes the FOXC1, FOXF2, and FOXQ1 genes.

No surgical intervention was done and the patient was kept on regular follow-up. Keywords: Microphthalmos, Cataract, Persistent fetal vasculature, Coloboma, Retinal detachment.

She was apparently well 20 days back, and then incidentally she closed her right eye and noticed diminution of vision in her left eye. Antenatal history was uneventful. There was no history of trauma during delivery or during perinatal period. Parents took her to a local practioner where she was diagnosed with unilateral left eye congenital cataract and referred to our centre. Her visual acuity at presentation was 6/6 in right eye on Snellen’s chart; left eye visual acuity was only 6/60 on Snellen’s visual acuity chart. Intraocular pressure was 18 mm of Hg in right eye and 14 mm of Hg in left eye by Applanation tonometry. There was no history of trauma, fever, headache, any drug intake before she Fig.

  • Traumatic Glaucoma Mimicking Primary Open Angle Glaucoma
    Traumatic glaucoma mimicking primary open angle glaucoma Xiaoming Duan ( [email protected] ) Research article Keywords: Traumatic glaucoma, Primary angle glaucoma, Trabecular pigmentation, Angle recession, Iridodialysis Posted Date: July 24th, 2019 DOI: https://doi.org/10.21203/rs.2.11863/v1 License: This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. Read Full License Page 1/9 Abstract Backgrounds To retrospectively analyze the clinical and ocular features in eyes with traumatic glaucoma misdiagnosed as primary open angle glaucoma (POAG). Methods We reviewed nineteen eyes with traumatic glaucoma misdiagnosed and collected their ocular and supplementary examination results. Results The outpatient age was 47.1±12.8 years old. The traumatic history was from 1 to 40 years. The history of hand or stone was present about 21.1% of patients, followed by balls (15.8%) and wooden stick (15.8%). The peak IOPs were 33.0±10.6mmHg. Iridodialysis was seen in 2 patients. Trabecular pigmentation grade more than 3 was noticed in 15 patients. Angle recession was found in all patients. No patient was found lens location and fundus damage. Conclusions Patients with long traumatic history, mild ocular signs and insidious symptoms were more likely to be misdiagnosed. It might be more prudent to diagnose as POAG while there was signicant difference in the condition of both eyes. Background Glaucoma is characterized by retinal ganglion cell degeneration, alterations in optic nerve head topography, and associated visual eld (VF) loss. It was known as a group of diseases, not a single disease. It was divided into many types, including in primary, secondary and developmental glaucoma.

Background: To report the clinical features of surgically induced scleral staphyloma and investigate the management. Methods: Retrospective uncontrolled study. Results: A full ophthalmological evaluation of surgically induced scleral staphyloma in four patients was performed. The first patient was a 3-year-old young girl underwent corneal dermoid resection. The second patient was a 60-year-old man underwent nasal pterygium excision and conjunctival autograft without Mitomycin C (MMC). The other two were respectively a 74-year-old woman and a 69-year-old man underwent cataract surgery. All patients performed allogeneic sclera patch graft. In the at least half a year follow-up, the best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of all the four patients were no worse than that of preoperative. Ocular symptoms disappeared, including eye pain, foreign body sensation, and so on. Unfortunately, the fourth patient showed sclera rejection and partial dissolution at postoperative 1 month.
