<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[To observe the stability of silicone plate-haptic intraocular lenses implanted following cataract surgery and analyze the reasons related to decentration and dislocation into the posterior segment.
· METHODS: We report 3 cases of posterior dislocation of silicone plate-haptic lenses (Bausch and Lomb C11UB and Chiron C11UB) in patients who underwent uneventful phacoemulsification. 
· RESULTS: One occurred 4 years following sectoral anterior capsulotomy for advanced anterior capsular contraction, the other in the early post-operative period following posterior capsulotomy and the third is a delayed (3 months), dislocation following uneventful posterior capsulotomy. None of the cases were associated with a history of trauma or other precipitating event.
· CONCLUSION: Silicone plate haptic IOLs seem to be prone to dislocation due to poor capsular adherence as they are only held in place by the fibrotic fusion of the haptics. If either the posterior or anterior capsules are disrupted, the forces created by capsular contraction may cause extension of radial tears, with subsequent posterior dislocation of the implant. Though the use of silicone plate-haptic lenses has been surpassed by other models, there are patients who had implantation of such lenses that may undergo YAG laser capsulotomy. It is important to inform them about the potential risk of posterior dislocation as an early or late complication following this procedure.]]></description>

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[AIM: To report a case of unilateral optic neuritis with multiple sclerosis(MS) in an Asian child.
· METHODS: A case report.
· RESULTS: A 10-year-old Chinese girl presented with history of sudden loss of vision of the right eye for 3 days. It was associated with pain in eye movement. She gave history of fever associated with ataxic gait a year ago. She had been diagnosed with acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM). Visual acuity in the right eye was 'counting finger' with positive afferent pupillary defect. The optic disc was swollen and hyperemic. The colour vision was severely impaired. Visual field showed central scotoma and enlarged blind spot. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain revealed multiple intense lesions in the left occipital lobe, basal ganglia and periventricular regions suggesting MS. She was treated with intravenous methylprednisolone for 3 days, followed by oral prednisolone for 11 days. She had excellent recovery and her visual acuity improved to 6/9. She remained asymptomatic for 3 years.
· CONCLUSION: The simultaneous occurrence of optic neuritis and MS is less common in children and seldom reported. We presented this case to highlight the possibility of this disease occurring in Asian population in a younger age group.]]></description>

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[AIM: To report a case of mucinous adenocarcinoma of the
tail of the pancreas presenting with a solitary choroidal
metastasis.
·METHODS: A 57 years old female patient presented with
central metamorphosia in the right eye. Fundoscopy showed a
solitary pale raised lesion in the central right macula about 6
disc diameters in length. Her past ocular and medical history
was unremarkable. A B-scan confirmed a raised solid lesion
in the posterior pole within the macula while fluorescein
angiography revealed a central lesion with no areas of leakage.
·RESULTS: In view of the history and the clinical findings a
FBC, ESR, LFT, Chest X-ray, and abdominal CT were
requested .The chest X-ray revealed multiple opaque lesions
in both lung fields suggestive of metastatic pulmonary
nodules. The CT revealed multiple nodules in the liver and a
3.5cm x 2.6cmlesion in the tail of the pancreas. A CT guided
liver biopsy was performed and it revealed moderately
differentiated metastatic mucinous adenocarcinoma.
Subsequent blood analysis revealed an elevated CA19-9. The
primary tumour site was identified as the tail of the pancreas
and was decided to instigate palliative treatment.
·CONCLUSION: There are few reports that demonstrate the
significance of a solitary choroidal lesion as the initial clinical
sign of cancer of the tail of the pancreas. This case highlights
the importance of performing detailed abdominal imaging
studies in cases where a solid choroidal lesion of unknown
origin is identified.]]></description>

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[AIM: To report a rare case of mesenchymal chondrosarcoma in the orbit and to explore its clinic manifestations, pathologic characters, management and prognosis.
  METHODS: We report a case of mesenchymal chondrosarcoma of the orbit. The clinical materials, including ophthalmological examination, computed tomography scan of the orbit, histopathology and immunohistochemistry of the biopsy specimen were reported, and its pertinent literatures were reviewed.
  RESULTS: A 36-year-old female was seen with proptosis and decreased vision. Histopathology demonstrated an admixture of undifferentiated mesenchymal cells and islands of mature hyaline cartilage. Immunohistochemical studies revealed positivity for vimentin and S-100, which was consistent with the diagnosis of mesenchymal chondrosarcoma. · CONCLUSION: Mesenchymal chondrosarcoma in the orbit is extremely rare malignant tumor. Multi-modality treatments (surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy) may lead to long-term survival.]]></description>

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[AIM: To report a rare case of melioidosis presenting as orbital abscess, who was successfully treated with high dose of intravenous ceftazidime.
 METHODS: A case report.
 RESULTS: A 55-year-old Malay gentlemen who was newly diagnosed with diabetes mellitus,   presented with prolonged low grade fever for three weeks and left eye swelling for five days duration. Initial CT scan of brain and orbit showed left periorbital cellulitis and acute left sphenoidal sinusitis. Initial swab culture grew Pseudomonas sp.  His general condition improved with regular antibiotics. However, upon completion of intravenous therapy his condition worsened and the left eye became more proptosed. Repeat  CT scan of the brain and orbit showed left eye orbital abscess with intracranial exten-sion. Swab culture from fistula of the lateral part of upper eyelid showed Burkholderia pseudomallei. He was treated with high dose of intravenous ceftazidime, oral co-trimoxazole for the acute management and on maintenance dose of oral co-trimoxazole for 2 months. He  responded well to treatment and had no relapse up to one year post treatment. Unfortunately his left eye vision was not salvageable.
 CONCLUSION: This case illustrates a rare presentation of orbital abscess due to melioidosis which was complicated with cerebral abscess and septicemia. An accurate diagnosis was essential and high dose of susceptible antibiotics was important for the institution of therapy to successfully treat this potentially fatal condition.]]></description>

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[We reported the case of a 39-year-old patient with inactive Behcet's syndrome developed capsule contraction syndrome after uneventful phacoemulsification and a foldable intraocular lens implantation. Two weeks after the operation, the patient was accepted to hospital with severe decrease of visual acuity (VA) on the operated eye.  Capsule opening area had been reduced considerably by fibrotic tissue, which evaluated with full dilated pupil. Since capsule contraction syndrome (CCS) had been diagnosed in very early stage and which structure was not severely thick, the fibrotic band was treated successfully, 360 degree circular shape, by neodymium YAG (Nd:YAG) laser. Capsule opening area was remained stable during follow up period of one month. But a significant reocclusion was developed that need surgical reopening 3 months after initial operation. Continuous curvilinier capsulorhexis (CCC) may be recurred again after a successful treatment in patient with uveitis like Behcet's disease.]]></description>

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[AIM: To evaluate the clinical manifestations and visual outcome of syphilitic uveitis patients.
METHODS: Case series of three patients with syphilitic uveitis who were managed in Hospital USM.
RESULTS: Three patients were diagnosed to have uveitis secondary to Syphilis. All three patients were not known to have syphilis prior to presentation but have positive history of sexual promiscuity. All patients presented with progressive blurring of vision for average of one-month duration. Two of them have association with fever, ocular pain and floaters. Visual acuity at presentation ranges from 6/12 to hand movement. Mild anterior uveitis (non-granulomatous), vitritis and papillitis were presence in all the patients. First patient has multifocal chorioretinitis with exudative retinal detachment. The second patient presented with exudative retinal detachment while the third patient has chorioretinitis only. All the patients were treated with intramuscular benzyl-penicillin 2.4 MU weekly for 4 weeks and two of them received oral doxycycline 200mg twice daily for 3 months. The uveitis responded well to the treatment and two of them showed dramatic visual improvement from 6/120 to 6/21 and 6/12 to 6/6. The one with worse outcome was confirmed to have positive retroviral.
CONCLUSION: Ocular syphilis presented here as non- granulomatous inflammation associated with exudative retinal detachment. Final visual outcome is generally good despite slow improvement after treatment.

METHODS: Clinical data including medical history, physical examination, previous surgery history were collected in 7 patients with conjunctival lymphangiectasia. Ocular data including visual acuity, Slit-lamp biomicroscopy were released, as were results of histopathology studies. Surgical method was also introduced by video.
RESULTS: Seven eyes of 7 patients (4 male and 3 female) with biopsy-proven conjunctival lymphangiectasia underwent the resection. Despite different surgical intervention, the optima method has been founding to treatment conjunctival lymphangiectasia. It is to reduce recurrence that the most concerned problem. In these 7 cases reported, patients kept healthy for 18 months without any one recurrence, whose visual acuity were not affected. Pathological report showed cystic tissue consists of squamous epithelium with significant hyperplasia.
CONCLUSION: This operation method is simple and easy to complete, as it is deserved to accept for surgeons and patients on the basis of its advantages.

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[AIM: To report two cases where decreased visual acuity was the first symptom of leukaemia and optical coherence tomography (OCT) allowed identification and localization of the retinal lesions.
METHODS: Retrospective, interventional, case reports. 
RESULTS: One case of lymphoblastic acute leukaemia and chronic lymphoid leukaemia were diagnosed following decreased visual acuity. OCT showed macular serous detachment in the first case. The second case presented hypo fluorescent retinal infiltrates which appeared as hyper reflective lesions by OCT. Retinal changes disappeared and visual acuity was recovered following complete remission of the neoplasm.
CONCLUSION: OCT is a valuable, non invasive diagnostic tool permitting detection, localization and follow-up of ocular dissemination of neoplasms.

·  METHODS:A case report
·  RESULTS:A 17-year-old boy presented with blurring of vision in both eyes and diplopia for 3 weeks. It was associated with severe throbbing headaches, nausea and vomiting. He was also having low grade fever. On physical examination he was afebrile with no sign of meningism. His vision was 6/15 in both eyes with constricted visual field. Anterior segment was normal in both eyes. Extraocular muscles movement showed bilateral sixth nerve palsies. Fundoscopy revealed bilateral hyperaemic and slightly elevated optic disc. CT scan of the brain was normal with no evidence of intracranial mass or abnormal ventricles. Lumbar puncture revealed high opening pressure >300mmH2O. Cerebrospinal fluid(CSF) microscopically and culture showed presence of  cryptococcus neoformans. This case was combinedly managed with neuro-medical team. Patient was started on intravenous Amphotericin B and fluconazole. His neurological symptoms recovered after a week. His vision was improved to 6/6 in both eyes with recovery of peripheral visual field. The diplopia improved with recovery of sixth nerve palsies in both eyes. Unfortunately, patient developed nosocomial lower respiratory tract infection and was treated for the problem.
·  CONCLUSION: This case highlights the indolent nature of cryptococcus meningitis and the fact that the overt signs of meningism may not be present even in immunocompetent person. Diplopia may be one of the early presentations of meningitis patient.

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[AIM: To report maternal and fetal adverse outcomes, in spite of appropriate treatment and regular follow up, in diabetic pregnant women with proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
METHODS: Case series of four young pregnant diabetics aged between 20 and 25 years with type I diabetes mellitus and proliferative diabetic retrinopathy.
RESULTS: The maternal adverse outcomes were abortion in one patient, pre-eclampsia and preterm delivery in one patient, and renal failure requiring dialysis in one patient. The fetal adverse outcomes were neonatal death in one case and premature baby in another case. 
CONCLUSION: These cases highlight the fact that diabetic pregnant women should be closely followed up by the obstetricians and physicians when they have proliferative retinopathy. The proliferative diabetic retinopathy should be considered as a part of the assessment when counseling a diabetic woman in antenatal check up and also in the follow up visits during pregnancy.

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[AIM: To report a case of branch retinal artery obstruction (BRAO) complicated after anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (AION).
METHODS: A 42 year-old woman who complained of visual disturbance was performed ophthalmological examinations such as fundus photography, fluorescent angiography (FAG) and visual field test. 
RESULTS: At first visit, disc swelling was noted and arterial circulation was intact, however, 1 week after onset, the inferior branch retinal artery began to shrink and the flame hemorrhage intensified. Sixteen months later, the optic disc evidenced an atrophic change; additionally, a ghost vessel in the inferior branch retinal artery was found.
CONCLUSION: We report a case of complications of BRAO arising after AION which caused the mechanical compression on the arterial circulation.

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[AIM: To report a case of pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) in a 48 year old woman that presented with bilateral blurry vision.
METHODS: A case report
RESULTS: A 48-year-old woman presented with bilateral blurry vision and right eye metamorphopsia. The patient had a history of angioid streaks in the left eye ten years ago for which she had received laser surgery and had poor residual vision. Visual acuity was 20/60 in the right eye and count fingers at 6 feet in the left. Fundus examination showed subretinal hemorrhage and macular thickening on the right and a disciform macular scar with focal atrophic pigment epithelial lesions on the left. Both eyes had angioid streaks and peau d’orange pigmentary pattern of the retina. External examination showed several, yellow skin papules and plaques on the lateral and posterior neck, as well as prominent mental creases. Pathologic examination of skin biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of PXE, showing calcium deposition and fragmented, clumped elastic fibers in the deep reticular dermis. She responded well to intravitreal bevacizumab injections and visual acuity improved to 20/25 OD. Preventative care was emphasized and the patient was referred to cardiology, gastroenterology and human genetics for counseling. 
CONCLUSION: PXE is a multisystem disorder affecting the dermatologic, ocular, and cardiovascular systems. Ophthalmic findings of angioid streaks and choroidal neovascularization in the presence of stereotypical skin changes and prominent mental creases should prompt evaluation for PXE.

METHODS: A case report.
RESULTS: A 23 years old Chinese woman with a recurrence of right-sided proptosis was evaluated. Ocular examination revealed proptosis of the right eye with chemosis, hyperemia and limitation of eye movements. Magnetic resonance imaging scanning showed an irregular shaped tumor in the right orbit. The tumor resection was done with a clinical diagnosis of malignant tumor. Histopathological findings revealed the diagnosis of dedifferentiated liposarcoma.
CONCLUSION: The rare occurrence of this tumour should be kept in mind while dealing with orbital tumours.

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[A 22-year-old patient suffering from both-side extreme hyperopia with amblyopia was corrected with an Artisan iris-fixated intraocular lens (IOL) implantation followed to clear lens extraction (CLE) with posterior chamber (PC)-IOL implantation. The preoperative refraction values were +17.75DS -1.50DC × 168° for the right eye and +17.25DS -0.75DC × 8° for the left eye. The uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) was 20/200 bilaterally and the spectacle-corrected visual acuity (BSCVA) was 20/50 bilaterally. One year after Artisan iris-fixated IOL implantation, bilateral BSCVA was 20/50 with a refraction of +1.25DS -0.75DC × 13° for the right eye and +1.50DS -1.00DC × 55° for the left eye. The outcomes of an Artisan iris-fixated IOL implantation followed to CLE with PC-IOL implantation were encouraging for the correction of extreme hyperopia. Long term follow-up examinations were necessary for further determination of the efficacy and safety of this combinational procedure.]]></description>

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[AIM: To report a successful surgical management of silicone oil migrated into suprachoroidal space after the repair of the retinal detachment with hemorrhagic choroidal detachment.
METHODS: Retrospective observational case report. A 30-year-old man with retinal detachment and hemorrhagic choroidal detachment due to severe corneal penetrating injury, underwent a pars plana lensectomy and vitrectomy, endolaser, and silicone oil tamponade followed by transscleral suprachoroidal hemorrhage drainage in the right eye. One week later, a localised temporal choroid elevation was noted. This persistent elevation was confirmed by operation research to be silicone oil migration into suprachoroidal space. 
RESULTS: The migrated silicone oil was drained via trans-scleral cut down, and the intravitreal silicone oil was removed and replaced by 16% C2F6. Over the next 2 weeks, the elevation vanished and the choroid became completely flat.
CONCLUSION: The migration of silicone oil into suprachoroidal space is a rare complication of vitrectomy. The pathway of the migration is most likely through internal orifice of sclerotomy sites. Trans-scleral drainage surgery is an effective method to remove the migrated silicone oil from suprachoroidal space.

Two cases of familial vitreous amyloidosis occurred in three generations with typical white fibrilar opacities in the vitreous body. Pars plana vitrectomy was performed in the two patients. The vitreous specimens were subjected to histopathological examination. The specimens showed typical microscopic features of amyloidosis with Congo red stain and non-branching fibrils were seen randomly distributed with 5-10nm in diameter on a transmission electron microscope. All of the exons of the transthyretin gene were amplified with DNA isolated from the peripheral blood cells. Bi-directional sequencing of the transthyretin gene revealed a single base-pair substitution, which results in an amino acid substitution at position83, glycine to arginine (transthyretin Arg-83).]]></description>

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[We describe a rapid anterior capsule contraction following phacoemulsifiction and intraocular lens(IOL) implantation in an old woman with high myopia. The patient with high myopia complicated with cataract received phacoemulc- ification and IOL implantation bilaterally .The best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) improved from 0.1 to 0.4 in the right eye and 0.5 in the left eye 1 week after surgeries.5 weeks after surgery of the right eye and 4 weeks after surgery of the left eye, the patient complained blurred vision in the right eye. BCVA of the right eye was 0.06 and that of the left was 0.1. Slit-lamp examination revealed anterior capsule contraction in both eyes and a fully closed capsulorhexis opening in the right eye. The IOLs were centered but almost completely enclosed, with numerous linear fibrous folds radiating from the hick central fibrosis. We surgically excised the central part of the anterior capsule of the eyes with microscissors, resulting again in BCVA of 0.4 and 0.5 in the right and left eyes respectively. Anterior capsule contraction might appear much earlier than three months after phacoemulsification and IOL implantation surgery in case of high myopia complicated with cataract. Patients with high myopia receive cataract and IOL surgery should be monitored carefully for the rapid development of anterior capsule contraction.]]></description>

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[AIM: To report a successful osteo-odonto keratoprosthesis(OOKP) procedure in a case of end stage of corneal blindness due to Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS).
METHODS: An interventional case report.
RESULTS: We describe a 35-year-old Indian woman, a known case of SJS with bilateral dry eyes and corneal blindness (failed corneal graft with vascularised total corneal opacity in the right eye and non-healing corneal ulcer in the left eye). Vision was hand movement only in both eyes. The corneal ulcer healed with medical treatment resulting in vascularised total corneal opacity with no improvement in vision. OOKP was performed in the right eye and the vision was improved from hand movement to 6/6. The same vision was maintained in the right eye at the last follow-up 5 years after surgery. 
CONCLUSION: OOKP provides good visual rehabilitation with long-term anatomically stable prosthesis in patients with end-stage of ocular surface disorders and corneal blindness secondary to SJS.

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[AIM: To describe a case in which vitrectomy was required for vitreous hemorrhage and fibrovascular proliferation after laser-induced chorioretinal venous anastomosis (LCVA) for non-ischemic central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO).
METHODS: Observational case report.
RESULTS: A 72-year-old man complained of central scotoma in the left eye, and was diagnosed as suffering from non-ischemic CRVO. LCVA was performed in another hospital. Although favorable visual function was briefly maintained postoperatively,severe vitreous hemorrhage developed in his left eye, necessitating vitrectomy. 
CONCLUSION: Considering that LCVA carries a risk of serious complications, we must apply this treatment with caution, especially in ethnic groups, such as the Japanese, in whom pigmentation reacts to photocoagulation excessively.

It was associated with poor vision, eye pain and restriction of eye movement of the same eye after 5 hours post left upper molar tooth extraction. The visual acuity in the left eye was hand movement. There was severe ptosis and proptosis of the left eye. The conjunctiva was chemotic with quite anterior chamber. The pupil was mid dilated and sluggished to light. The ocular movement was restricted in all directions. Fundoscopy of the left eye revealed features of central retinal artery occlusion with hyperaemic disc and subretinal exudates at posterior pole. The right eye appeared normal. Urgent MRI brain and orbit revealed severe left paranasal sinusitis with anterior displacement of the left globe and presence orbital abscess. Patient was managed with Otorhinolaryngology and Neurosurgery teams. He underwent emergency transnasal drainage of abscess. Histopathological examination of unhealthy sinus mucosa showed evidence of fungal infection. However, the culture and sensitivity result was inconclusive. Patient was treated with amphotericin B, ceftriaxone, amoxicillin clavulanate and metronidazole. Patient was detected to have high blood sugar level and was managed accordingly. The proptosis improved with treatment. However, his vision, ptosis and ophthalmoplegia remained static. Assessing the immunocompromised status is important for the management of patient presented as acute orbital apex syndrome to avoid fatal outcome.]]></description>

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[AIM: To compare the visual acuity (VA), comfort, and patient preference in a soft toric contact lens (TCL) versus soft spherical contact lens (SCL) in low astigmatic subjects during the contact lens (CL) trial.
METHODS: This subject-masked, block randomized, 2×2 crossover study recruited 40 neophyte subjects (80 eyes) aged 18 to 33y with astigmatism in the range of 0.75-1.25 D with or without spherical power from -6.00 D to +6.00 D. The participants were scheduled for two days CL trial and were fitted with the best-fit SCL and TCL. After 4h of wear, they were assessed objectively for high contrast VA and subjective vision, comfort, and preference.
RESULTS: The responses of 36 subjects (response rate 90%) with a mean age of 23.02±2.97y (range 18 to 33y) were analyzed. One-line improvement of monocular VA in the logMAR chart was reported to TCL as compared to SCL (-0.044±0.06 vs 0.04±0.03 logMAR, P=0.01) but the binocular vision remained similar (-0.12±0.07 vs -0.14±0.04 logMAR, P=0.38). Subjects felt a noticeable difference in clarity when shifted to TCL as compared to the SCL. The satisfaction with vision (vision quality) was significantly better with TCL (P=0.03). The fatigue with TCL was graded less at 2.5±0.6, compared to SCL at 4.6±1.3 (P=0.04). Thirty-three participants (91.6%) preferred to use contact lens of which 26 participants (79%) preferred TCL.
CONCLUSION: The findings suggest that VA and comfort are better with TCL as compared to SCL which is only observed if the patient was offered both offering SCL with spherical equivalent power alone as the first option can mislead the practitioner; TCL trial should be the first choice of the lens in low-to-moderate astigmatism.]]></description>
