Purpose: The purpose of the study was to determine the most accurate formula for intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation among five currently used formulas in eyes with phacomorphic glaucoma (PG) undergoing cataract extraction surgery.

Materials And Methods: In this prospective interventional case series Patients diagnosed with PG were undergone uneventful phacoemulsification and IOL implantation. After 3 months, the refractive outcome for each formula was evaluated with mean prediction error (PE), mean absolute error (MAE), and the percentages of eyes within 0. Read More

Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the ocular morbidity due to delayed presentation in glaucoma patients because of COVID lockdown.

Methodology: This was a retrospective study of 15 cases presented to us between October 2020 and February 2021. Cause of glaucoma in our study group was either primary angle closure, pseudoexfoliation, lens-induced glaucoma, or neovascular glaucoma. Read More

Introduction: Cataract is the main cause of preventable blindness worldwide and as such, it is important to identify these patients early before complications develop. Cataracts may progress to become intumescent (phacomorphic) or hypermature (phacolytic). This can lead to lens-induced glaucoma, which may subsequently cause permanent optic nerve damage. Read More

Objective: To determine the effect of cumulative dissipated energy (CDE) on complications and visual outcome following cataract surgery in dogs.

Animals Studied: Records of 182 canine eyes that had undergone cataract surgery.

Procedures: Retrospective medical record review was conducted on dogs that underwent unilateral or bilateral elective cataract surgery by a single surgeon. Read More

Our paper aims to report an unusual case of phacogenic uveitis with secondary glaucoma occurring after spontaneous rupture of the lens capsule in a patient with hypermature age-related cataract, to describe its particularities and to review the classification of the lens-induced uveitis. We described the case of an 83-year-old male with a history of hypermature cataract, who presented to our clinic for right eye pain. Examination revealed circumciliary congestion, diffuse corneal edema, lens debris floating in the anterior chamber, pseudohypopyon and the opacification of the whole lens. Read More
