One seventy-three eyes of one seventy-three patients were included. Group A involved the infective patients, and Group B included all noninfective blind eyes. Nonporous PMMA implants were used for all cases, and the main outcome measure was the successful retention of the primary implant. All types of complications and satisfactory prosthesis fitting were also observed. The mean (±SD) age was 45.689 ± 11.34 years, with males (53.2%) predominant. All except 11 cases could retain the primary implant successfully. Primary orbital implants were exposed in nine (5.2%) cases (four in Group A and five in Group B), and Extrusion of the primary orbital implant occurred in two (1.1%) cases, and all extrusion occurred in Group A. One hundred fifty-six (90.2%) patients underwent successful prosthesis fitting with better cosmesis. The difference in major complications like implant exposure and implant extrusion between the groups was not statistically significant (P value equals 0.0879, Fisher exact test). Evisceration with a primary orbital implant is feasible in both infective (endophthalmitis/ panophthalmitis) and noninfective blind eyes. It provides a better postoperative cosmesis to the anophthalmic socket.","PeriodicalId":14485,"journal":{"name":"IP International Journal of Ocular Oncology and Oculoplasty","volume":"19 5","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136226882","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study was started after getting permission from the institutional ethics committee. Patients were randomly taken and they underwent NCT and GAT. The values of both were compared and analysis was done using STATA and SPSS software. : The study includes 200 patients who underwent GAT and NCT. The age group ranges from 21-45 years. The IOP values showed that the mean value in the GAT group was 15.54 mmHg and that in the NCT group was 17.255 mmHg. So, the mean value shows that the values obtained from NCT are higher than those obtained from GAT. The mean IOP in the NCT group is 1.715 mmHg higher than that in the GAT group. The study has a p-value of 0.001. : Both the above methods are frequently used for the measurement of IOP. NCT is an easy and less time-consuming method that is used more frequently. But the study concludes that the results of NCT are not as accurate and should be rechecked with those of GAT in cases with borderline values before starting workup of glaucoma.","PeriodicalId":14485,"journal":{"name":"IP International Journal of Ocular Oncology and Oculoplasty","volume":"19 3","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136226884","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This was a cross sectional study carried out on young adults of 18-22 years age group. The NPC and NPA were measured with a Royal Air Force (RAF) scale.

Neurofibromatosis type 1 is a multisystemic neurocutaneous disorder with an autosomal dominant hereditary pattern. Ocular manifestations include plexiform neurofibroma of eyelid, Lisch nodules in iris, optic nerve glioma, glaucoma, sphenoid wing dysplasia. Retinal and choroidal involvement are encountered less frequently. Unusual ocular findings include multiple choroidal nevi, combined hamartoma, choroidal Schwannoma, choroidal melanoma and vaso proliferative retinal tumors. Here we report a case of an 18 year old girl diagnosed with neurofibromatosis type 1 who on routine ocular examination was found to have high myopia in both eyes and on fundus examination had a macula ‘on’ inferior retinal detachment with retinal hole in right eye. Inferior retinal detachment is rarely reported in neurofibromatosis type 1. This case emphasizes the importance of conducting ocular examination even in asymptomatic patients with neurofibromatosis, so that early detection and treatment can prevent vision loss secondary to retinal detachment.","PeriodicalId":14485,"journal":{"name":"IP International Journal of Ocular Oncology and Oculoplasty","volume":"19 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136226885","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
