Herein, we would like to draw the kind attention of readers toward some pathophysiologic issues about the origin of Torpedo lesions.

The prevalence of DES was higher in Iranian students compared to other similar studies, which could be due to geographical, lifestyle, climatic, and even ethnic differences.[3] While some studies[4,5] reported a direct correlation between the prevalence of dry eye and age, this study found no significant relationship between DES prevalence and age, which could be due to the limited age range of the subjects.

  Editorial – Thiolated Chitosan-carboxymethyl Dextran Nanoparticles: Improving Intravitreal Drug Bioavailability for Retinoblastoma

summary:
  With current standard of care therapy, globe salvage can be achieved even for the most advanced group E eyes in about 50% of cases.[5] Delrish et al describe what may be the next frontier in intravitreal chemotherapy delivery, with improved drug bioavailability using thiolated chitosan-carboxymethyl dextran nanoparticles (CMD-TCs-NPs). Although this was a small study with 10 rats, Delrish et al concluded that surface charge is a key factor determining vitreous diffusion and retinal penetration for chitosan-derived intraocular drug-delivery mechanisms, and they propose future use of thiolated chitosan derivatives for intravitreal chemotherapy delivery aimed at retinoblastoma treatment.[1]

However, uveal involvement is more common because of its high blood supply.[2, 3] Orbital TB is more commonly seen in children with a female predisposition.

  For example, twice higher frequency of dry skin in PEXG patients than in POAG patients did not reach statistical significance; on the other hand, although PEXG patients were almost a decade older than POAG patients, we did not find any effect of age on the frequency of skin manifestations. Conclusion: Integumentary system disorders are pervasive in glaucoma patients, and dermatologic evaluation in glaucoma patients should be considered for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.

summary:
  The mean baseline IOP ± SD was 14.43 ± 3.96, 14.11 ± 3.99, 13.62 ± 4.57, and 14.27 ± 3.98 mmHg in groups 1 to 4, respectively (P = 0.807). This study aims to investigate the magnitude of IOP changes induced by continuous or static accommodation during near vision work in glaucomatous and normal eyes.

  A Survey on Orbital Space-occupying Lesions during a Twelve-year Period from a Referral Center in Iran

summary:
  In our series, benign orbital lesions outnumbered malignant lesions by 4.7 times which is comparable to the report by Kodsi et al,[11] however, in some of the other studies this predominance of benign lesions was less significant,[2, 6, 8, 12] which may be due to the younger age of our study population.

summary:
  However, if the traditional group were served by PanOptix, this resultant satisfaction may not be obtained, as PanOptix intraocular lens requires making an adjustment for the near vison which easygoing patients may find inconvenient. Keratometry and axial length measurements with intraocular lens Master 500 (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Germany) was performed prior to the surgery for all patients.

summary:
  Since 87.5% were speciated to M. abscessus in our study, we infer that the most effective agents against M. abscessus are AMK, CLR, and AZM which is in agreement to a study by Elliot et al.[19] Among fluoroquinolones, CIP and GAT were found to be resistant in 57.2% of M. abscessus isolates while MOX was resistant in 64.3% of M. abscessus isolates. Hence, based on our study sensitivity pattern, we suggest that topical AMK (2.5%) can be used either alone or in combination with oral CLR (500 mg) or AZM (500 mg) for NTM keratitis specifically for M. abscessus.

summary:
  Slides were incubated at room temperature for 4 h allowing the visualization of collagen in the vasculature and adenosine receptor expression. Eyes with dry AMD lost expression of A3 in the photoreceptor outer segments compared with eyes from control or wet AMD. Conclusion: The ocular presence of adenosine receptors is consistent with their proposed role in modulation of inflammation in both the retina and choroid, and their potential targeting for AMD treatment.

summary:
  Higher levels of IOP changes may affect the microvascular network differently. In addition, LPI might have adversely affected the image quality and therefore subsequent vessel density measurements.[35] Wen et al[36] investigated optic disc perfusion immediately after the administration of intravitreal anti-VEGF injections and found a significant reduction in optic disc vessel density.

  Pigmentary Retinopathy and Chronic Subretinal Fluid Associated with Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum and Angioid Streaks

summary:
  Following our patient for 10 years (5 years with spectral domain OCT), she has never had any evidence of a choroidal neovascular complex on fluorescein angiography and thus it was concluded that the subretinal fluid was the result of malfunctioning retinal pigment epithelium due to the pigmentary changes at the posterior pole, a rare finding first described by Zweifel and colleagues in 2011, who concluded the fluid was due to a similar pathophysiology as pattern dystrophy.[3] Clinicians should be aware of the ophthalmic manifestations of pseudoxanthoma elasticum which include angioid streaks which can lead to choroidal neovascularization and severe vision loss but also pigmentary changes at the posterior pole that can lead to chronic subretinal fluid and a milder effect on visual acuity. On OCT (C-F), there is evidence of bilateral subretinal fluid (red arrows) consistent with chronic RPE damage that are stable over five years (C & D images taken five years before E & F images).

summary:
  Intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation remains a challenging issue in the pediatric population.[1] There are two methods of IOL power calculation that are most commonly used in aphakic children including the use of either biometric formulas or refractive vergence formulas. The refractive vergence formulas that use AR instead of AL and keratometry could be used in assessing IOL power calculations for aphakic children.

  Ray Tracing versus Thin-Lens Formulas for IOL Power Calculation Using Swept-Source Optical Coherence Tomography Biometry

summary:
  However, choosing the best method for IOL power calculation is still a challenging issue.[1, 2] Since 1999, with the introduction of IOL Master, optical biometry has established itself as the standard for axial length (AL) measurement. As a result, in order to design lenses and optical systems, the ray tracing method has now become the standard technique.[14] In this investigation, the OKULIX ray-tracing program was used to assess the accuracy of IOL power calculation, which combines corneal topography data for IOL power calculation, in comparison with the second- and third-generation formulas and the fourth-generation Haigis formula using an SS-OCT biometer (OA- 2000).

  Subthreshold Micropulse Laser for Long-Lasting Submacular Fluid after Rhegmatogeous Retinal Detachment Surgery

summary:
  Dorin G. Evolution of retinal laser therapy: Minimum intensity photocoagulation (MIP). Photostimulation reactivates RPE cellular activity,[19, 20] with up- and downregulation of various RPE factors stimulating fluid resorption,[21, 22] such as overexpression of stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF1), which attracts stem cells and restores the normal function of RPE by renewing dead epithelial and endothelial cells.[23, 24] Photothermal stimulation induces the expression of heat shock protein (HSP), which normalizes the levels of cytokines and reduces chronic inflammation.[19] PSF after retinal surgery for RRD is a relatively uncommon and self-limiting condition, which can occasionally cause major visual loss.

summary:
  The first proof-of-concept study of RPE transplantation was performed in 1984 by Gouras et al in monkeys.[11] Four years later, Li and Turner published a report demonstrating that subretinal injection of RPE cells prevented photoreceptor degeneration in rats.[12] The field has subsequently matured at a rapid pace with not only animal studies,[13–15] but also human trials, using RPE of fetal,[16, 17] post-mortem adult,[18–20] autologous,[21–23] induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived[24] and embryonic stem cell (ESC)-derived origin.[25–27] The introduction of IPSC- and ESC-derived RPE have been critical for the advancement of clinical RPE research during the recent years, and has, to a large extent, solved the issue of sourcing RPE donor tissue. RPE cells can easily be visualized in vivo, sustainable in vitro, and differentiated from stem cells with a relatively straightforward protocol.

summary:
  Although rapid control of BD-related uveitis was noted in the pilot and phase-2 studies,[70, 71] the phase-3 EYEGUARD-B trial failed to meet its primary endpoint and the medicine did not significantly alter the risk of flares.[72] Anti-interleukin-2 Daclizumab Daclizumab (Zinbryta®) is a humanized monoclonal antibody that inactivates T lymphocytes by binding to the CD25 portion of the IL-2 receptor and is administered subcutaneously.[74] Nussenblatt et al. reported that patients with NIU treated with Daclizumab needed less concomitant immunosuppression while maintaining baseline vision at 26 weeks.[75] However, the medicine was withdrawn from the market in 2018 following cases of hepatic injury and meningoencephalitis.[76] Anti-IL-interleukin-6 Tocilizumab Tocilizumab (Actemra®) is a recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody against the IL-6 receptors and is most commonly administered subcutaneously (162 mg every two weeks).[79] An intravenous form is also available. 4.

summary:
  Pediatric ocular trauma is the most leading cause of acquired unilateral vision loss in childhood, especially in developing countries.[2] Despite all that has been done to reduce the risk of trauma in children, it remains common worldwide.[3] Ocular injuries are divided into two main groups: closed globe injuries and open globe injuries (OGIs). Prior studies have revealed that ocular injuries most frequently occur at home.[4, 12, 23]

  Time to Call into Question the Fundus-based Evaluation of Diabetic Retinopathy after Intravitreal Injections

summary:
  Data on DR evolution after anti-VEGF treatment are limited but the reported series tend to sug- gest that anti-VEGF intravitreal injections clear the fundus from hemorrhages and signs of vessel impregnation with VEGF without eliminating the risks of neovascularization shortly after treatment discontinuation.[5] In the second study, using a similar method but based on wide-field OCT angiography, we found that despite a rapid DRSS score improvement after anti-VEGF treatment, no reperfusion occurred, including at the capillary level.[7]

summary:
  Furthermore, the incidences of sustained blindness in severe NPDR patients were reduced with anti- VEGF therapy by 57.7% over a 10-year follow-up period.[54] The phase-2 BOULEVARD trial compared the efficacy of Faricimab, a bispecific antibody, inhibiting both VEGF-A and angiopoietin-2, with ranibizumab in the treatment of patients with DME.[55] At the six-month follow-up period, among the patients who were treatment-naïve, 2-steps or greater improvement in the DRSS was achieved in 12.2%, 27.7%, and 38.6% of eyes in the 0.3 mg ranibizumab, 1.5 mg Faricimab, and 6 mg Faricimab groups, respectively.[55] DISCUSSION Conventional management of NPDR without DME included observation along with controlling the systemic condition. While approaches to the patients with PDR or DME is straightforward, the therapeutic approach to NPDR patients with no DME has not been well established.

  Intravitreal Injections and Face Masks: Endophthalmitis Risk Before and During the COVID-19 Pandemic

summary:
  While some have suggested an additional risk of endophthalmitis with patients wearing masks during the sessions— theoretically, through an upward direction of exhaled vapors toward the periocular area, increasing the risk of infectious complications,[10] others have found no increase in the overall risk of endophthalmitis, attributable to using face.[11] In the present study, we investigated the effect of these changes in health protocols during the COVID pandemic on the incidence of post-intravitreal injections endophthalmitis and compared the endophthalmitis rate during the COVID pandemic with the rate at which it occurred during the pre-COVID era. The importance of intravitreal injections, especially intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) injections, has increased in recent years due to their widespread use in managing retinal diseases such as diabetic macular edema (DME) and neovascular age- related macular degeneration (nAMD).[1] Along with its therapeutic benefits, the intravitreal delivery route carries the risk of some side effects and complications, including subconjunctival hemorrhage, uveitis, retinal tear or detachment, and endophthalmitis.[2, 3] Endophthalmitis is a severe, sight-threatening complication of intravitreal injections; among its known risk factors are diabetes mellitus (DM), blebs, blepharitis, etc.[3, 4] Adherence to standard injection protocol can significantly limit the incidence of post-intravitreal injection endophthalmitis.[3, 5] Alterations in the former may give rise to changes in the latter.

  We have to consciously monitor the pandemic status, public health developments, and the evidence which emerges to tailor and update our control measures and eye care strategies. The nasopharyngeal RT-PCR results were indicative of the presence of the virus in all patients with positive tear RT-PCR results, which comprised a case with clinical conjunctivitis.[11] Although the rate of ocular manifestations is low, protecting against viral transmission is vital in ophthalmology practice due to the proximity between the examiner and patients, the lengthy period of exposure during examinations, and direct contact with patient’s eye secretions.[12] Many non-urgent ophthalmic services were ceased at the ophthalmology centers in Iran, similar to other countries, during the early months of the pandemic to tackle the spread of COVID- 19. Government agencies, ophthalmology societies, and eye health centers have developed guidance and policy statements to reduce the risk of transmission on one hand and maintain continuity of eye care on the other.[13–19]

  Influence of Intraocular Lens Asphericity and Blue Light Filtering on Visual Outcome, Contrast Sensitivity, and Aberrometry after Uneventful Cataract Extraction

summary:
  The yellow tint of BLF IOLs replicates the spectral transmission properties of the aged human crystalline lens in a much closer manner than the UV light-filtering IOLs do.[13] While the possible visual benefits of BLF IOLs are still under debate, controversy has been raised whether a yellow-tinted IOL could modify the visual performance of patients, specifically regarding the postoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), contrast sensitivity, color vision, and glare. Theoretically, BLF IOLs may induce a reduction in mesopic and scotopic visual performance attributed to the Purkinje shift, where differing peaks of spectral sensitivity for scotopic and photopic vision are identified.[1, 3] Violet and blue lights are much more important for vision in dim-light environments than in bright- light environments, providing 45% of rod-mediated aphakic scotopic sensitivity but only 7% of photopic sensitivity for an iso-illuminance light source.[1, 2] However, the results reported in the literature are controversial regarding postoperative contrast sensitivity after the BLF-IOL implantation and do not indicate a significant decrease in the mesopic and scotopic visual function.

summary:
  The enlarged globe and the elongated axial length of the myopic eyes lead to an ocular dimension that is stretched beyond its normal limit, which may lead to retinal thinning.[12, 13] Ocular conditions such as glaucoma, which are prevalent among individuals with highly myopic eyes, may also significantly affect the thickness of the inner retinal layers.[12, 13] Optical coherence tomography (OCT) offers a modern technique for in vivo measurements of reti- nal thickness and enables the assessment of the relationship between myopia and retinal thickness. Although studies have investigated the changes in retinal thickness in other populations,[17–28] they have considered only the central retinal region or recruited individuals with high or pathologic myopia,[17, 27] and the results have been inconclusive[17–28] due to the different methodologies used in the studies.[17–29] Retinal thickness measurements by OCT vary according to the population being studied;[30] thus, knowledge of such population-based differences in retinal thickness distribution is important in the evaluation, treatment, and follow-up of patients in a particular population and/or with various ocular pathologies.[17, 31]

  The reversibility of the procedure within two to four weeks of discon- tinuation of OK lens wear is a consequence of regression of corneal parameters.[10] Common issues of concern with OK lens use include the unpredictability of visual gain due to issues of inadequate lens centration, poor con- trast with persistent use, and increase in higher- order aberrations (HOA) and safety because of the inherent risk of microbial keratitis.[11] In the OK group, cornea showed a flattening of 0.8 D (mean keratometry) after single overnight usage of OK lens and overall flattening of 1.2 D compared to baseline, at the end of four months.

  Growth factors play a fundamental role in a variety of cellular processes such as proliferation, migration, differentiation, and multicellular morphogenesis.[1] Growth factors expedite tissue growth/regeneration by providing the right signals to the cells.[2] Systems biology- related approaches help us understand the mechanisms underlying retinal tissue engineering and investigate the effect of growth factors through protein–protein interaction network analyses. Network centrality analysis using different criteria has the potential to reveal growth factors important for retinal regeneration.

  Although TIL has proven to be a powerful treatment for metastatic melanoma, it can lead to melanocyte-reactive T cells in other melanocyte containing regions.[3] Herein, we present a unique case of acral metastatic melanoma, treated by adoptive cell transfer leading to asymptomatic intraocular pigmentary changes. Symptoms often parallel those of VKH disease, which demonstrates a heightened immune response to tyrosinase450−462 and gp10044−59, two melanocyte antigens found in the ears, skin, hair, meninges, and eyes.[4] Our patient did not demonstrate dermatologic manifestations such as vitiligo and poliosis in contrast to Yeh et al’s 2009 case.[4]

summary:
  Switching studies demonstrating interchangeability of biosimilars and reference products have not been required for marketing approval by the European Medicine Agency,[6] In contrast to generic drugs, biosimilars tend to have complex structures and may differ from the reference product in their primary amino acid sequence and other features such as glycosylation and PEGylation that alter their tertiary structure (i.e., protein folding) as well as their immunogenicity.[2] These differences arise from the manufacturing process, which tends to be much more complex than that of generic drugs.

  Intraocular Pressure Changes after Water Drinking Test in Surgically Treated Primary Congenital Glaucoma

summary:
  The following parameters were assessed: IOP trough (lowest IOP after drinking water), IOP peak (highest IOP after drinking water), IOP mean (the mean of the four IOPs after drinking water), IOP fluctuation (difference between peak IOP and baseline), IOP range (difference between peak IOP and lowest IOP reading after drinking water), and end-pressure difference (IOP at 60 min versus baseline). However, the IOP fluctuation in our GDD group (2.5 mmHg) was lower than the value in POAG patients with GDD (3.6 mmHg).[11] Several studies have suggested that IOP fluctuation is an important contributor to the risk of glaucoma progression.[8, 17] The Early Manifest Glaucoma Trial showed that even a 1 mmHg increase in IOP was associated with an 11% increase in the hazard ratio for glaucoma progression.[18] The Advanced Glaucoma Intervention Study Group suggested that IOP peaks should be below 18 mmHg to prevent visual- field deterioration in patients with moderate- or advanced-stage glaucoma.[19] As glaucoma progression is correlated with IOP peaks and fluctuations,[20] accurate identification of at-risk patients has become imperative as the first step JOURNAL OF OPHTHALMIC AND VISION RESEARCH VOLUME 15, ISSUE 3, JULY-SEPTEMBER 2020 321 Water Drinking Test in Congenital Glaucoma; Razeghinejad et al Table 3.

summary:
  Furthermore, this procedure achieves the best results when performed soon before the formation of capsular adhesions, which is not feasible in all patients.[4, 7, 10] Recently, secondary piggyback IOL implantation has received more attention due to its promising safety profile and easier surgical techniques.[6, 15–18] Additionally, there are many studies reporting predictable refractive outcomes with the application of power calculation of the second IOL, which is not very complicated.[19] Another advantage of a secondary piggyback IOL over IOL exchange is that the implantation of a secondary IOL is a reversible procedure, and if complications such as ILO, pupillary optic capture, pigment dispersion syndrome, or pigmentary glaucoma occur, the removal of piggyback IOL can be considered.[13] The present findings are in line with other studies reporting piggyback IOL implantation. Methods: In this prospective interventional case series, patients who had residual refractive error after cataract surgery and were candidates for secondary piggyback IOL implantation between June 2015 and September 2018 were included.

  In contrast, R28 cells exposed to 7kCh continued to have elevated caspase- 3/7, -8, and -12 activities (between 25.7% decrease and 17.5% increase in msi, P > 0.05) regardless of the pretreatment. Our results show that these drugs are effective in ARPE-19 cells but not in R28 cells, implicating the need for a multidrug approach or novel therapies to inhibit 7kCh in various cell types.

  hydrogen peroxide.[44] The American Academy of Ophthalmology recommends using a 1:10 dilute bleach solution (sodium hypochlorite) to disinfect the office equipment and instruments against common infectious agents encountered in eye care clinics including the adenoviruses.[45] Due to the highly contagious nature of viral conjunctivitis, frequent hand washing, meticulous disinfection of medical instruments, and isolation of conjunctivitis patients from the rest in the healthcare provider’s office has been recommended.[46] The incubation period for the adenovirus is approximately 5–12 days, while the infected individuals can transmit the disease for up to 14 days from the time they are infected.[41] There is no single effective treatment modality for viral conjunctivitis; however, use of frequent artificial tears, antihistamines containing eye drops, or cold-compresses seem to alleviate many of the clinical symptoms that are associated with this condition.[47, 48] Topical and oral antiviral medications do not appear to be useful.[47, 48] Kam KY, Ong HS, Bunce C, Ogunbowale L, Verma S.

summary:
  AT8 tau protein was also detected with Aβ depositions in various retinal layers including the RGC layer, IPL, INL, outer plexiform layer (OPL), and outer nuclear layer (ONL) in Tg2576 mice.[154] Photoreceptor cells have high energy demands and are significantly affected by ageing.[155, 156] Although phosphorylation is an essential tau modifier under physiological conditions,[1] abnormal phosphoryla- tion or hyperphosphorylation are other modifiers by which tau gets prone to aggregation.[42, 43] For instance, hyperphosphorylated tau forms the oligomers and neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) that exert toxic effects on neuronal function and AD progression.[44] Although 15–30 phosphorylation sites, that mostly corresponded to proline-directed sites in the proline-rich domain of tau were discov- ered in tau protein,[45] increased phosphorylation, especially at the MT-binding domains, has also been demonstrated in association with increased MT dynamicity and reduced levels of neuronal excitability in the early stages of AD.[46] Threonine175 (Thr175) is one of the important phosphorylation sites in tau protein that was first identified in AD[47] and then in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) with cognitive impairment (ALSci).[48–52]

  We used modified methods of Nested-PCR and ARMS-PCR in combination (Nested- ARMS-PCR) and confirmed their validity with RFLP–PCR. Results: Significant differences were noticed between KC patients and healthy individuals regarding the genotype TY or T allele frequencies of rs4898 in the male subjects (OR = 0.43, 95%CI: 0.20–0.92, P = 0.03), whereas no significant differences were identified in the female subjects (OR = 1.07, 95%CI: 0.52–2.20, P = 0.85). Central corneal thickness (CCT) is lower in KC patients by 75 µm as compared to normal controls.[4, 5] The incidence of KC is approximately 1 per 2,000, and its prevalence is 54.5 per 100,000.

  When HIV Immunodeficiency and Heterochromia Confuse the Issue: Recurrent Zoster Uveitis Mistaken for Fuchs’ Uveitis

summary:
  The ophthalmologist, in presence of VZV pathology in patients under the age of 50, should function as a whistle blower in order not to miss an early diagnostic opportunity for HIV infection. As we suspected an immune deficiency to varicella- zoster virus or a more general immunodepression, we asked the patient to give us his consent to search for HIV infection.

  Ocular Gene Therapy with Adeno-associated Virus Vectors: Current Outlook for Patients and Researchers

summary:
  Researchers studying ocular gene therapies and clinicians enrolling patients in clinical trials must recognize the current limitations of these therapies to properly manage expectations and avoid disappointment, but we believe that gene therapies are well on their way to successful, widespread utilization to treat heritable ocular disorders. https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7472-8385 Abstract In this “Perspective”, we discuss ocular gene therapy – the patient’s perspective, the various strategies of gene replacement and gene editing, the place of adeno- associated virus vectors, routes of delivery to the eye and the remaining question - “why does immunity continue to limit efficacy?”

  Prolonged dark adaptation can recover rhodopsin and re-normalize fundus color (Mizuo-Nakamura phenomenon).[2–4] Oguchi disease has been reported in association with retinitis pigmentosa[4] and diabetic retinopathy,[1] but there is no report of its association with keratoconus or any other corneal abnormality up till now. Another case of Oguchi disease was reported by Francois et al with absent scotopic waves in 1956.[1] In conclusion, Oguchi disease can be seen with keratoconus.

summary:
  Fortunately, Pb poisoning is a rare circumstance not commonly encountered by ophthalmologists.[8–11] Consistent with this notion, Pb and other toxic metals (i.e., organic mercury, thallium) are to be considered “neurotoxicants”, primarily due to toxic effects on the optic nerve.[12–14] With regard to the issue of toxic optic neuropathy, over the past two decades, we have noticed only one case in which papilledema was associated with overexposure to nickel salts. E-mail: gianpaolo_guzzi@fastwebnet.it Received: 13-02-2021 Accepted: 13-04-2021 Access this article online Website: https://knepublishing.com/index.php/JOVR DOI: 10.18502/jovr.v16i3.9450 In toxicology, the whole-blood Pb concentrations have been used in conjunction with urinary Pb levels as a primary measure of Pb exposure in humans.[6] Toxicological studies suggest that exposure to Pb during developmental periods may lead to long- term visual deficits both in in vitro and in animal models.[7] Toxic optic neuropathy may be the unique clinically significant alteration in patients with Pb poisoning.[2, 3]

summary:
  This unchanged glare sensitivity has been noted in colored contact lenses as well.[25] Another study showed that while soft contact lenses do not affect glare disability, they can induce glare effects.[26] Since placing an additional optical surface such as a contact lens can augment the amount of light scattering and absorption, it is plausible to observe a decline in CS under different lighting conditions when contact lenses are worn. The greater corneal edema in colored contact lenses compared to clear lenses was not a possible cause in their study and it was stated that the main reason for this difference was the lower optical quality of colored lenses compared to clear ones.[16] Other studies suggested that the diameter of pigment- free optical zone in colored contact lenses plays a substantial role in aberrations, visual acuity, and CS; aberrations and CS in colored contact lenses with an optical diameter of 6 mm do not differ from those of clear contact lenses.

Based on these findings, they suggested that macular OCT is capable of identifying early glaucomatous damages that may not be apparent on OCT scans of the disc area.[35] Another useful sign for the diagnosis of early glaucoma in macular OCT is the presence of temporal horizontal raphe on GCIPL deviation maps [Figure 1A].

  Native camera app images: (A) Close, (B) Intermediate, (C) Distant with yellow pen torch; (D) Close, (E) Intermediate, (F) Distant with white pen torch; FiLMiC Pro app images: (G) Close, (H) Intermediate, (I) Distant with yellow pen torch; (J) Close, (K) Intermediate, (L) Distant with white pen torch. This is particularly relevant for bleb morphology assessment as these images may be reliably used for partial IBAGS classification or Wuerzburg classification of bleb morphology.[16–18] SNR measures of native app images in different illumination settings clearly reflect the decreasing illumination as introduction of image noise is evident when illumination distance increases.

  The Use of Tutoplast as an Adjunct in Scleral Buckle Procedure in Patients with Extremely Thin Sclera

summary:
  All patients had Tutoplast Pericardial Graft placed over the areas of thin sclera which allowed the scleral buckle to be sutured onto the Tutoplast rather than the thin sclera. In all patients, Tutoplast Pericardial Graft was placed over the areas of thin sclera in order to facilitate the placement of the scleral buckle.

summary:
  Conclusion: Ectopic orbital meningiomas are rare tumors that are not easily diagnosed without postoperative histopathology. The last rare group is ectopic meningiomas which are free from any connections to the optic nerve or intracranial meninges (<1%).[2–9] Ectopic orbital meningioma is usually located on the medial part of the orbit.[10] This uncommon entity of meningiomas usually reveals as a well-circumscribed mass but an ill-defined border does not rule out this type of tumor.[10] Herein, we report a rare case of ectopic (isolated) intraconal meningioma.

summary:
  The mean postoperative IOP reduced significantly in both groups, although the mean IOP reduction was significantly greater in PEXG eyes (14.7 ± 8.9 vs 10.1 ± 7.7 mmHg) Owing to its pathophysiology, PEXG eyes are more prone to trabeculectomy-related complications.[17, 18]

summary:
  Studies of ME glaucoma risk factors that identify chromosomes, familial trend, age/gender, socioeconomic status, lifestyle, intraocular pressure, vascular influences, optic disc hemorrhage, cup-to-disc ratio, blood pressure, obstructive sleep apnea, and diabetes mellitus were included in this systematic review. At this time, however, there are only isolated studies looking at specific chromosomal factors and their relationship to glaucoma prevalence or its pathogenesis.

summary:
  The patients had no other risk factors for dry eye, suggesting that SC use was possibly the main cause of keratitis in these patients.[8] Final statement recommendation Patients who will start chronic PDE5i use and have complaints of dry eye or who use contact lenses should be counseled about an increased risk of keratitis. Moreover, in a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, crossover study, Grunwald et al[16] reported no significant acute changes on IOP after a single oral dose of SC l 100 mg in 15 subjects aged 63 ± 14 years with bilateral chronic open-angle glaucoma.[16] Dündar et al[26] also showed no change in IOP after the administration of a single oral dose of 50 mg SC to 14 healthy male volunteers tested immediately before and 1 hr after SC administration.[26] 254 JOURNAL OF OPHTHALMIC AND VISION RESEARCH VOLUME 16, ISSUE 2, APRIL-JUNE 2021 PDE5i and Ocular Side Effects; Barroso et al Final statement recommendation There is a lack of prospective randomized trials to determine whether there is a true causal association between PDE5i use and elevation of IOP leading to glaucoma development or deterioration.

summary:
  Several studies found a transient myopia caused by near vision work, between –0.12 D and – 1.30 D.[13–15] Resolution of symptoms occurs 30/60 min after completing the task in symptomatic subjects.[16, 17] It has been suggested that the eyelid forces, during near vision tasks, causes significant changes in eye aberrations.[18] Buehren et al noted that there was an increase in ocular high-order aberrations (HOA) following a 2-hr reading task which was more significant in myopic subjects and in eyes with large pupil diameters (4 and 5 mm).[19] The changes in ocular aberrations depend also on the requirements of the tasks. The recent study of Jimánez et al found a higher increase in RMS astigmatism when subjects performed a task with higher-cognitive demands which persisted 10 min after completing the task.[20] Previous studies showed that ocular aberrations change significantly with accommodation and the RMS of ocular low-order aberrations (LOA) and

  Patients may also present with constitutional symptoms including low grade fever, anorexia, fatigue, and weight loss.[2] Ocular Manifestations Acute anterior uveitis is the most common non- articular manifestation of AS and presents in up to 30% of patients during the course of the disease and may increase to 50% with longer follow-up.[4] Uveitis is most often characterized by recurrent, asymmetric and bilateral iridocyclitis, involving only one eye at a time and is not related to the severity and course of joint involvement.[17] The interval between attacks is highly variable and can range from one month to 35 years, although most commonly they occur between 14 and 25 months.[4] Common forms of anterior uveitis in AS are iritis (with inflammatory cells in the anterior chamber and no involvement of the anterior vitreous), iridocyclitis (primary inflammation of the iris and secondary inflammation of the ciliary body; inflammatory cells present in both the anterior chamber and anterior vitreous), and cyclitis (inflammation of mainly the ciliary body).[2] Patients typically present with sudden ocular pain, redness, photophobia, and decreased vision.[20] The main findings on examination are limbal injection, fine whitish–gray keratic precipitates, moderate to severe amounts of cells which may sometimes cause hypopyon and fibrinous exudate in the anterior chamber.[5] Inflammatory cells in the anterior chamber of patients with AS are more static in nature.

  Benner et al[74] treated five eyes with severe PVR and recurrent retinal detachment using relaxing retinectomy, extended perfluorocarbon liquid tamponade for four weeks, and a series of intravitreal MTX injections (100– 200 μg) every two weeks. Progression of preexisting cataract is also noted as a side effect of intravitreal MTX injection, however, the majority of evaluated patients were vitrectomized that predisposed the eyes to the progression of cataract.[39] Band keratopathy and iris and anterior chamber angle neovascularization with subsequent neovascular glaucoma were also reported as a rare complications of intravitreal injection of MTX.[29] Choudhury et al reported two patients, one having idiopathic retinal vasculitis and the other having pars planitis in association with CME who received intravitreal injection of MTX.
