<ns3:p>Corneal blindness is an important contributor to the burden of global and has a greater prevalence in low-income countries developing world where resources infrastructure are limited. The causes corneal too different from high-income include infectious keratitis, ocular trauma, xerophthalmia. Persons with these indications tend have unfavourable outcomes after transplantation, limiting their chances benefitting this sight-saving procedure. However, most preventable. This highlights...
To study and compare the demographic clinical profile of acute ocular burns (AOB) in children adults.This retrospective case series included 271 (338 eyes) 1300 adults (1809 who presented to two tertiary eye care centers within one month sustaining AOB. Data regarding demographics, causative agents, severity injury, visual acuity (VA), treatment were collected analyzed.Males more commonly affected particularly among (81% versus 64%, P < 0.00001). Among children, 79% sustained domestic...
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to report the indications and outcomes oral cyclosporine A (oCsA) use in vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) assess its effect on corticosteroid use. Methods: This retrospective review VKC cases included patients who were prescribed oCsA. Data clinical characteristics, demographic profile, treatment collected. An acute episode defined as one requiring oral/topical corticosteroids. outcome measure difference number episodes before after oCsA Results: 27...
Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy contact lenses (CLs) in eyes after simple limbal epithelial transplantation (SLET) for stem cell deficiency (LSCD). Methods: This retrospective included 61 with partial or total LSCD which underwent SLET were fitted corneal scleral rigid gas-permeable CLs. primary outcome measure best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) Results: median age at presentation 22 years. most common cause chemical injury [47/61 (77%)]. Twenty-seven...
To describe the changes in corneal epithelial thickness and reflectivity following simple limbal transplantation (SLET) using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (ASOCT).This was a prospective imaging study of 31 eyes 29 patients who had undergone autologous or allogeneic SLET for stem cell deficiency stable, avascular surfaces postoperatively. ASOCT scans all four quadrants were taken preoperatively at 1-week, 1-month, 3-month, 6-month, 1-year postoperative time points undergoing...
This report describes a new technique of deep anterior lamellar limbo-keratoplasty for the management bilateral limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD) with corneal scarring. A 45-year-old male presented chronic sequelae ocular chemical injury and had total LSCD The visual acuity (VA) in right eye was counting fingers. large diameter (DAL-LK) carried out donor cornea limbus were sourced from single tissue. VA at last visit, 2.5 years after surgery 20/80. similar presentation seen 31-year-old...
This case describes a novel technique combining mini-conjunctival limbal autograft (CLAU) with deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK) in of chemical injury sequelae.A 19-year-old female presented total stem cell deficiency (LSCD) and vascularized corneal scar the visual axis left eye, 4 years following injury. In order to treat LSCD simultaneously visually rehabilitate patient, mini-CLAU DALK was carried out. Two separate one clock-hour CLAUs were harvested from right eye secured left....
To describe the clinical profile and management of patients with ocular superglue injury (OSI).
This report describes the management of bilateral limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD) in vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) with allogeneic simple epithelial transplantation (allo-SLET).A 22-year-old female presented VKC total LSCD. A thick fibrotic pannus was present both eyes, visual axis involvement right eye. The central cornea left eye clear. patient underwent a cadaveric allo-SLET to restore ocular surface. Systemic immunosuppression oral cyclosporine administered following surgery....
Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy monotherapy (topical linezolid 0.2%) versus a combination antibiotics 0.2% and topical azithromycin 1%) for treatment Pythium insidiosum keratitis. Methods: Cases P. keratitis were prospectively randomized into group A on along with placebo (sodium carboxymethyl cellulose [CMC] 0.5%) B 1% azithromycin. Both groups compared by proportion both clinical resolution worsening number therapeutic penetrating keratoplasty (TPK) performed at...
The current study was carried out to evaluate the clinical features and management outcomes of dry eye disease (DED) in chronic ocular GvHD following allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).A retrospective review consecutive patients diagnosed with between 2011 2020 performed at a tertiary care network. Multi-variate regression analysis for identifying risk factors associated progressive disease.A total 34 (68 eyes) median age 33 years [inter-quartile range (IQR) 23-40.5]...
