However, it completely ignores the increased risk of deadlier aerosol related infection via lack of facial seals in ordinary surgical masks. 7 PHE recommends wearing a respirator mask and enhanced PPE when performing an aerosol generating procedure 1 yet it fails to recognize aerosol generation and prolonged exposure to the virus by ophthalmologists during common daily outpatient procedures and examinations.

     summary: to achieve this objective, many types of provocative tests have been proposed and assessed over time.6 Precise and easy to perform provocative test should be proposed as screening tools for glaucoma, as it will not only decrease the number of visual impairment due to glaucoma but also help in reducing the direct and indirect expenses of the disease7. Provocative test was not positive in any group so we accept null hypothesis.

     summary: The first three methods are by dilating pupil as described by Kershner 16 and the fourth method is cataract extraction through small pupil without any mechanical dilatation. Phacoemulcification through small pupil has been described but in this study I have described a new method in which pupil is not dilated for extracapsular cataract extraction and pupil is only stretched by lens itself when it comes into anterior chamber.

     summary: Although it is possible to achieve good visual results from a prn approach as shown in the CATT study which compared prn bevacizumab and ranibizumab with monthly treatment, this was achieved through tight monthly monitoring, a very low retreatment threshold and a relatively high number of treatments in the prn arms.4 Longer term results of anti-VEGF treatments for wet AMD in real world clinical practice using a prn approach appear to be showing that this approach can lead to a gradual loss of treatment effect in the longer term. The reasons for this may naturally reflect the differences in patient response when compared to clinical trials but real world data is emerging indicating response may also be variable depending on treatment approach.

     summary: There was increase in overall anterior chamber depth of 440 microns 1 day after surgery, 620 microns one week after surgery, followed by overall increase in anterior chamber depth of 740 microns after one month of surgery (table 2). Other studies have demonstrated increase in anterior chamber depth in normal population after phacoemulsification by measuring depth by different methods like Scheimpflug or ultrasound biomicroscope imaging methods.4 Hayashi et al found out by Scheimpflug imaging that width and depth of anterior chamber angle increased significantly i.e. 39.7% after cataract extraction followed by IOL implantation.4-8 However increase in Anterior chamber depth in this study is somehow less i.e. 26.1% than reported by other investigators which may be possibly that our group of patients were more myopic than others as it has been reported that hypermetropes show more change in anterior chamber depth than myopes.

     summary: Conclusion: Per-operative irrigation of adrenaline 1:1,000,000 solution keeps better pupillary size as compared to pre-operative diclofenac sodium for patients undergoing extracapsular cataract extraction, Key Words: Adrenaline, Extra capsular Cataract Extraction, Diclofenac sodium ataract surgery is one of the most common surgical procedures in patients over the age of 60 years.1 Over the past decade operative technique in cataract surgery has improved and the operation has become less traumatic to the eye.2 Pupillary constriction during cataract surgery is found to be the major cause of iris damage, incomplete cortex removal, posterior capsular rupture, vitreous loss, and even posterior lens matter dislocation.3,4 Cataract surgery can be performed more easily and safely if mydriasis can be maintained until intraocular lens implantation.5 Different drugs e.g. cyclopentolate, tropicamide and diclofenac sodium have been used pre-operatively to maintain per-operative pupillary dilatation.6,7 Per-operative intraocular irrigation with adrenaline 1:1,000,000 solution has been found to be safe and effective in maintaining mydriasis during cataract surgery.6 Pre-operative diclofenac sodium eye drops have also been used and have found effective in maintaining mydriasis during cataract surgery.8 Purpose of the study was to determine the outcome of per-operative intraocular irrigation with adrenaline 1:1,000,000 solution is better than pre- operative diclofenac sodium eye drops in maintaining C JEHANZEB KHAN, et al 200 Vol. 30, No. 4, Oct – Dec, 2014 Pakistan Journal of Ophthalmology mydriasis during cataract surgery that help in prevention of complication. Purpose: To compare the effectiveness of pre-operative diclofenac sodium eye drops with per-operative intraocular irrigation with adrenaline 1:1,000,000 (one in one million) solution in maintaining mydriasis during cataract surgery.

The possible reason for reduced bacterial corneal ulcers might be more successful treatment of bacterial corneal ulcers in the peripheral centers and/or by general practitioners.

       words: 2751
      flesch: 50
     summary: In the absence of corneal disease, Goldman and Schmidt very rarely observed significant CCT changes, thus assumed a normal CCT of 520 μm for their instrument5. If this is proven then the need for adjustment in postoperative IOP values corresponding to CCT change, or use of Dynamic Contour Tonometry (DCT) which is less affected by alteration in CCT, can be recommended13.

       words: 1683
      flesch: 55
     summary: Optic disc drusen has a greater tendency to form in eyes with a small scleral canal; therefore hypermetropic eyes would have a higher rate of optic disc drusen relative to myopic eyes5. A correct diagnosis of optic disc drusen is compulsory, though effective treatment is not yet present but it is most important to differentiate optic disc drusen from papilledema in order to evade unnecessary neurological examinations6,8.

     summary: 00 233875.0 0 DISCUSSION Newly or already formed corneal neovascularisation increases the risk of subsequent graft rejection after corneal transplantation as well.19 Medical and surgical therapies used to diminish corneal neovascularisation include corticosteroids, nonsteroidal anti-inflamma- tory agents, laser photocoagulation, and needle diathermy20. A wide range of insults, including infection, inflammation, ischemia, degeneration, trauma, and loss of the limbal stem cell barrier, can results in corneal neovascularization (NV)1.

     summary: The mean duration at which, retinal detachment was noticed after cataract surgery was 128 ± 243 days. From a surgical point of view, this type of retinal detachment is difficult to treat, because of potentially poor my driasis, disturbing rim of anterior capsule, IOL margin, residual lens matter, or any posterior capsule opacification, resulting in poor visualization of peripheral retina, and identification of retinal breaks7-9.

     summary: Given the limitations of MRI in reliably predicting microscopic infiltration of the choroid and optic nerve, the authors conclude any decision to treat with neoadjuvant chemotherapy based on suspected post-laminar invasion on MRI is not justified without histopathologic evidence of disease. Of the initial 42 patients in this 12 – month trial randomly assigned to either the steroid group (treated with 0.1% fluorometholone 3 times a day) or the non-steroid group (discontinuation of steroid eye drops), 4 in the steroid group and 6 in the no-steroid group did not complete the trial.

     summary: Once the Riboflavin is activated by ultraviolet-A light, it promotes a free radical pathway that causes cross- linkage of corneal collagen and increases its strength by more than 300%7. Corneal crosslinking with Riboflavin stops progression by increasing the strength of the cornea and has revolutionized the treatment of corneal ectasias at an early stage.

     summary: There is no doubt that in a small number of aphakic eyes injected with silicone oil, it will come to occupy the anterior chamber, at least in the upper half or two third, preventing free flow of aqueous to the angle or blocking the pupil. Despite the progress in vitreoretinal surgery and the importance of silicone oil as an adjunct for the treatment of complex forms of retinal detachment, controversy still surrounds the issue of selecting the proper oil viscosity for clinical use3,4.

In addition to traditional chemical drugs, the advent of new technologies such as dendrimers, antibodies, aptamers, ribozymes, matrix degrading enzymes, gene therapy with viral vectors and RNA interference opens the door to a whole new generation of therapies to prevent fibrosis after glaucoma surgery.

Cataract is one of the leading cause of preventable blindness in third world countries and this is due to poverty on one hand and increasing cost of good cataract surgery particularly phaco on the other hand.

     summary: Despite these enthusiastic recommendations of micro incision and bimanual technique the dilemmas with it are no less trivial due to inherent problems of wound leakage around the sleeveless tip, insufficient infusion through chopper with more chances of chamber instability, instances of wound burn and chattering of leas pieces, with resultant sub optimal operative outcomes. Hence a newer thinking is developing with the recommendations of constructing micro incision (sub 2 mm even upto 1.5 mm similar to bimanual technique) but with micro coaxial system using finer tips with thinner and narrow bore sleeves retaining the benefits of coaxial system along with micro incisions providing better fluidic control, securer wounds, practically astigmatism neutral, with lesser incidence of post operative complications retaining the possibility of using thin reliable IOLs with already proven stable and predictable optical qualities or choice of implanting newer thinner foldable lenses.

       words: 2201
      flesch: 53
     summary: A clinically significant difference between autorefraction and manifest refraction was defined as a difference of >0.50 D in sphere, cylinder, spherical equivalent or weighted axis, or >10° in axis. In 266 right eyes, the median difference between autorefraction and manifest refraction in spherical corrections was +0.01 D (p=0.85), -0.33 D in cylindrical corrections (p<0.01), 10° in axes (p<0.01), and –0.16 D in spherical equivalent (p=0.02).

     summary: The secretion of meibomian glands is called mei- bum9 which is primarily made up of nonpolar lipids (about 90%, comprising of wax, sterol-esters and tri- acylglycerols), while less than 10% are polar amphi- philic lipids (hydroxy fatty acids), and a small amount of proteins and electrolytes. In post-menopausal women, the level of androgen production declines by the ovaries and adrenal glands causing meibomian glands to atrophy.16 Ageing of the meibomian glands results in a decreased cell renewal and differentiation of meibocytes, with reduced gland size, and an increased infiltration of inflammatory cell.

     summary: There was no statistical significance regarding the overall visual field loss and CD ratio of patients whether they were H.pylori-positive or H.pylori- negative.13 In Thessaloniki, a study observed that IOP was the sole risk factor involved with POAG and pseudoexfoliative glaucoma, but the strong presence of H. pylori infection in glaucoma patients of this area is also coincidentally high, hence demonstrating a common factor with probable association with POAG and pseudoexfoliative glaucoma in Greece.14 Until now, there has not been extensive investigation to determine the prevalence of H.pylori in glaucoma patients.
