To study the outcome of penetrating keratoplasty (PK) in eyes undergoing simultaneous insertion or repositioning a glaucoma drainage device (GDD) through pars plana.The medical records all patients who underwent PK and primary placement GDD plana from April 1, 1997, December 2005, were reviewed. Intraocular pressure (IOP) control was defined as maintenance IOP > = 5 < 21 mm Hg (without loss light perception vision needing further surgery). Kaplan-Meier life table survival analysis used to...
To assess the endothelial toxicity and microbiological efficacy of voriconazole (100 microg/mL) as an antimicrobial additive to Optisol GS.A total 533 donor rims were studied. One half each rim was placed in standard GS other fortified with microg/mL). All refrigerated for 24 hours at 3 degrees C thioglycolate broth incubated 37 7 days. A pair buttons not used transplantation stored 2 days solution examined changes electron microscopy (EM). second cornea by staining 0.3% trypan blue 0.2%...
We aimed to identify the characteristics and prognostic indicators of poor visual anatomic outcome in pseudophakic patients with fall-related open-globe (OG) injuries. used a case series design, for total 26 patients.Charts consecutive OG injury at single institution were reviewed. Demographics, ophthalmic history, circumstances injury, initial best-corrected acuity (BCVA), examination findings, surgical interventions, follow-up BCVA tabulated statistical analysis unpaired t-tests Fisher's...
The purpose was to report a case of novel approach for the removal central interface epithelial ingrowth caused by perforating corneal injury 6 years after laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK).Access large area under LASIK flap achieved through wound tract from injury. Suturing similar manner commonly carried out peripherally then performed prevent recurrent ingrowth.The offending removed with no recurrence over 1-year follow-up.This is, our knowledge, first reported tract.
This study assessed the performance of short-course ciprofloxacin for treatment 34 adult patients with culture-positive typhoid fever. Patients received ciprofloxacin, 750 mg orally twice daily 7 d. Measurement response was based upon time from initial to fever lysis, afebrile state, and symptom resolution. Ciprofloxacin-treated defervesced in a mean 3.21 d (+/- 0.56), stabilization temperature 4.0 +/- 0.73 After 90 follow-up, no relapse or carrier identified. Side effects during therapy...
To report a case of ocular adnexal lymphoma presenting as asymptomatic follicles discovered incidentally on routine examination.A 43-year-old woman presented for annual examination and was found to have unilateral giant in the left eye inferior fornix. She denied any or systemic symptoms. The remainder unremarkable, patient otherwise healthy. A conjunctival biopsy revealed diagnosis mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. underwent external beam radiation therapy, resulting...
A 39-year-old man with pathologic myopia and a dislocated native lens of the right eye underwent pars plana lensectomy implantation an iris-fixated 3-piece MA60MA foldable acrylic intraocular -5.0 diopter power.The patient presented 11 months later spontaneous haptic disinsertion from optic.The meniscus (concave-convex) configuration this may have contributed to haptic-optic disjunction.This is first such case reported involving negative power lens.
The purpose of the study was to report a case focal trichiasis causing full-thickness corneal edema, scarring, and endothelial cell loss requiring penetrating keratoplasty (PK). A 66-year-old male referred for right upper eyelid corresponding an area edema. No keratic precipitates or guttata noted. Specular microscopy showed diffuse loss. He treated with topical steroids acyclovir epilation lashes. Anterior chamber paracentesis negative varicella-zoster virus, cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex...
