Project description:Forty eyes of 35 patients in paediatric age group suffering from congenital/traumatic cataracts were operated. Posterior chamber intra ocular lens (PC IOL) implantation was carried out and followed for four years. Twenty one eyes (52.5%) showed visual recovery of 6/18 or better. Forward thrust was the commonest per operative complication. Uveitis and pupillary distortion were the common post operative complications. PC IOL implantation appears to be safe and promising procedure.

Project description:We present a case of posterior capsular defect with traumatic cataract after blunt trauma in which an extended focal length intraocular lens (IOL) was implanted in the bag after conventional phacoemulsification and anterior vitrectomy. Anterior segment optical coherence tomography performed preoperatively aided in the confirmation and documentation of the capsular integrity. Intraoperative trocar anterior chamber (AC) maintainer allowed AC maintenance without further complications. IOL was well centered postoperatively at 6 months, and the unaided visual acuity was 20/20 for distance and N8 for near. The report showed that an extended depth of focus IOL can be placed in eyes with ruptured posterior capsule for good visual outcome in posttraumatic young eyes and it may not be considered as a relative contraindication for it.

Project description:Endothelial keratoplasty (EK) with pseudophakia often presents with late-onset proliferative after-cataract with posterior capsule distension. We performed a modified technique of capsular bag lavage in 11 eyes with late-onset PCO after EK (4 cases: post-DSAEK, 7 cases: post-DMEK). Anterior capsular rim was separated from the underlying IOL optic using MVR blade. Circumferential relaxing radial nicks were made on the capsular rim to create space for the passage of irrigation-aspiration (IA) probes behind the IOL. Bimanual IA of the flocculent cortical material was performed without damaging the posterior capsule. Air was injected at end of surgery to ensure graft apposition. All cases gained 1-3 lines of Snellen's acuity and no case developed graft failure, rejection, or endothelial decompensation. An intact posterior capsule is associated with better outcomes post a repeat graft, if required. Our technique helps avoid complications related to a disturbed anterior hyaloid phase and minimizes postoperative inflammation.

Project description:To assess the safety and outcome of single-piece posterior chamber intraocular lens (PC-IOL) implantation in the ciliary sulcus following posterior capsular rupture during cataract surgery.Patients with posterior capsular rupture during cataract surgery with a single-piece acrylic IOL implanted into the ciliary sulcus were studied. Complete ocular examinations were performed after 6 months postoperatively.Twenty-four eyes were included. Mean follow-up duration was 8.33 ± 2.33 months. There was no significant difference between preoperative and postoperative keratometric cylinder or intraocular pressure. Visual acuity of 87.50% of patients was ≥20/40 after surgery. Complications included foveopathy (10 eyes), iris transillumination defect (4 eyes), iris chafing (2 eyes), pigmented keratic precipitate (KP) (4 eyes), clinical IOL tilt (6 eyes), endothelial pigment dusting (14 eyes), IOL pigment dusting (17 eyes), iris bowing (6 eyes), IOL decentration (4 eyes), and IOL tilt detected with ultrasonography biomicroscopy (UBM) (4 eyes). IOL pigment dusting was significantly higher in eyes with short axial lengths, high IOL power, small sulcus-to-sulcus (STS) diameter, large STS IOL diameter mismatch, and small anterior chamber depth and angle. Significant relationships were observed between pigmented KP with small STS diameter and large STS IOL diameter mismatch, UBM and clinical IOL tilt with large anterior chamber depth and between iris transillumination defect and STS IOL diameter mismatch.This implantation is associated with higher incidence of complications. Single-piece acrylic IOLs are not designed for sulcus implantation. However, they may be used in eyes with longer axial length if the 3-piece IOL is not available.

Project description:This study aimed to evaluate the intra- and postoperative complications of intraocular lens (IOL) implantation with posterior optic buttonholing (POBH) in children that had undergone phacoemulsification irrigation/aspiration for congenital/developmental cataract and experienced complication of anterior capsulorrhexis extension (ACE). A total of 25 eyes of 21 patients were included in the study. A foldable three-piece IOL was implanted into the bag/ciliary sulcus with primary posterior capsulorrhexis and POBH. The visual acuity improved from 2.12 ± 0.69 log MAR to 1.38 ± 0.49 log MAR at 6 months follow-up. Postoperative complications included heightened postoperative inflammation in three patients and temporary corneal edema in two patients. Only one patient had developed posterior capsular opacification (PCO) at 6 months follow-up with mild tilt, while the rest 24 eyes had no PCO formation and adequate IOL centration. The results of this study indicate that a three-piece foldable IOL implantation with POBH is a feasible option for children who experienced ACE during pediatric cataract surgery, as it results in satisfactory surgical outcomes and very few ocular complications.

Project description:PurposeTo evaluate clinical outcomes with a premium diffractive-refractive trifocal toric intraocular lens (IOL) over a 12-month period.MethodsMulticentre prospective clinical trial including 227 eyes of 114 patients undergoing cataract surgery with bilateral implantation of the AT LISA tri toric 939MP IOL (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Jena, Germany). One patient was implanted unilaterally. Outcome measures were: visual acuity, manifest refraction, reading performance, contrast sensitivity, defocus curve, patient satisfaction and subjective quality of vision. Alpins vector analysis was used to evaluate astigmatic changes.Results12-month follow up results of binocular uncorrected distance, intermediate and near visual acuity were ?0.3?logMAR in 99.0%, 98.10% and 91.40% of eyes, respectively. 79.7% of eyes had a cylinder value of ±0.50?D at 12 months post-surgery. Contrast sensitivity was in the normal range at 6 months post-surgery. The defocus curve exhibited a smooth transition between far and near foci. Vector analysis showed a mean magnitude of error of -0.16?±?0.48?D. Mean binocular distance-corrected reading visual acuity was 0.15?±?0.13?logRAD at 6 months postoperatively. 93.3%, 89.4% and 84.6% of patients expressed satisfaction (good or very good) with distance, intermediate and near vision, respectively, 12 months after surgery. Most (?95%) patients felt that visual disturbances, including halos, glare, focusing difficulties and depth perception, caused little or no disturbance.ConclusionsThe diffractive-refractive trifocal toric IOL, AT LISA tri toric 939MP, provides effective distance, intermediate and near visual acuity in eyes with corneal astigmatism. Patient satisfaction was high and 98.1% of patients expressed satisfaction with the IOL implanted.

Project description:AimTo evaluate the incidence of postoperative posterior capsular striae (PCS) and its influence on posterior capsular opacification (PCO) in patients implanted with two types of lens material.SettingTertiary eye care center in central rural India.Study designA prospective, observational, nonrandomized study.Materials and methodsThe study included 1247 patients having age-related cataract scheduled for removal by phacoemulsification technique and implantation of hydrophilic or hydrophobic intraocular lens (IOL). Demographic profile, nuclear grading, axial length, and IOL power were noted. Details of PCS were noted on the 1st postoperative day in patients with clear cornea. Postoperative follow-up was ensured to study the status of PCS and development of PCO.ResultsThe overall incidence of PCS was 19.8% (247 out of 1247 eyes). Out of 1247 patients, 641 patients (51.4%) had hydrophilic IOL implantation and 201 eyes had PCS (31.4%) and 606 patients (48.6%) had hydrophobic IOL implantation and 46 eyes had PCS (7.6%), P = 0.04. Three and more striae were seen in 119 eyes (119/641, 18.6%) in hydrophilic group and 4 eyes (4/606, 0.66%) in hydrophobic group. Sixty-two eyes (62/201, 30.9%) in hydrophilic group with multiple PCS were reported with persistent striae after 6 months of surgery. Two eyes in hydrophobic group had persistent striae even after 3 years of follow-up. Evaluation of PCO score of the hydrophilic group was 0.6 whereas of the hydrophobic group was 0.1 (P = 0.04). Ten patients of the hydrophilic group only required neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (ND: YAG) laser capsulotomy.ConclusionThe incidence of PCS was higher in hydrophilic than hydrophobic IOLs. Multiple PCS persisting in patients beyond 6 months after operation should be followed up for early development of PCO, particularly in patients implanted with hydrophilic IOL.

Project description:Arthroscopic techniques for posterior shoulder subluxation with labral injuries in athletes have shown good results. The difficulty with the procedure is gaining appropriate access to the posteroinferior quadrant of the glenoid at a steep enough angle that allows for safe anchor placement. Various portals have been described that can be used as accessory portals for anchor placement. Although the use of additional portals to create appropriate access to the joint is always encouraged, preoperative planning can minimize the need for their use. The video shows a simple technique for posterior labral repair with capsular plications through a lateralized posterior portal in the lateral decubitus position. This technique allows the surgeon to address posterior labral tears and capsular laxity without the need for accessory portals.

Project description:Posterior instability is relatively rare when compared with anterior instability but can comprise up to 40% of operatively treated instability cases. Posterior dislocations are much rarer and are classically due to trauma, seizure, or electric shock. Due to a lack of an obvious deformity and an internally rotated and adducted arm position, posterior shoulder dislocations often are missed on initial presentation. In the management of posterior dislocations, considerations need to be made in regard to bony and soft-tissue pathology. In the setting of soft-tissue deficiency, previous options included nonoperative management primarily consisting of bracing and activity modification as well as arthroplasty options that do not rely on the capsulolabral complex for stability. In this paper, we present a technique for treating a chronic posterior shoulder dislocation with an associated large reverse Hill-Sachs deformity. In this setting, a revision labral repair and capsulodesis is generally not possible due to insufficient capsulolabral tissues. Here, we present the technique for an arthroscopic posterior capsule reconstruction using an acellular dermal allograft as well as a McLaughlin procedure for the treatment of a reverse Hill-Sachs lesion.

Project description:Fibrotic posterior capsular opacification (PCO), a major complication of cataract surgery, is driven by transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β). Previously, αV integrins were found to be critical for the onset of TGF-β-mediated PCO in vivo; however, the functional heterodimer was unknown. Here, β8 integrin-conditional knockout (β8ITG-cKO) lens epithelial cells (LCs) attenuated their fibrotic responses, while both β5 and β6 integrin-null LCs underwent fibrotic changes similar to WT at 5 days post cataract surgery (PCS). RNA-Seq revealed that β8ITG-cKO LCs attenuated their upregulation of integrins and their ligands, as well as known targets of TGF-β-induced signaling, at 24 hours PCS. Treatment of β8ITG-cKO eyes with active TGF-β1 at the time of surgery rescued the fibrotic response. Treatment of WT mice with an anti-αVβ8 integrin function blocking antibody at the time of surgery ameliorated both canonical TGF-β signaling and LC fibrotic response PCS, and treatment at 5 days PCS, after surgically induced fibrotic responses were established, largely reversed this fibrotic response. These data suggest that αVβ8 integrin is a major regulator of TGF-β activation by LCs PCS and that therapeutics targeting αVβ8 integrin could be effective for fibrotic PCO prevention and treatment.
