The objective is to present a meticulously detailed case, including imaging and anterior optical coherence tomography (OCT), to enhance understanding and recognition of this phenomenon.Methods: A detailed case presentation involving a 50-year-old male, 3 years post-DSAEK transplantation for endothelial damage resulting from intraocular surgeries. The patient urgently sought consultation due to vision loss while under daily fluorometholone use. Clinical examination revealed acute graft rejection characterized by corneal edema, anterior chamber reaction, and the presence of keratic precipitates forming a Khodadoust line. The management approach included the initiation of a tapered dexamethasone regimen.Results: The identified acute graft rejection, marked by the presence of a Khodadoust line, demonstrated favorable responsiveness to the initiated tapered dexamethasone regimen. Corneal OCT and imaging played crucial roles in providing detailed insights into the manifestation.Conclusions: While the endothelial rejection line (Khodadoust line) is a rare occurrence following DSAEK, this case underscores its potential association with graft rejection. The successful management outlined in this report suggests the importance of prompt recognition and appropriate anti-inflammatory intervention in such cases to achieve positive outcomes.","PeriodicalId":15423,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Current Ophthalmology","volume":"36 1","pages":"96-98"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11567608/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142648031","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on the CT scan findings, we measured the FA, HV, OVR, and fracture site. We assessed enophthalmos using both clinical (CE) and radiographic (RE) measurements. Additionally, we investigated the correlation between CE and the measured parameters, along with the relationship between the pattern of diplopia and the fracture site.Results: We identified enophthalmos in 81% and diplopia in 78% of the patients with an acute blowout orbital floor fracture. CE was moderately correlated with the FA (R 2 = 0.4341, P < 0.001). CE was weakly correlated with the HV (R 2 = 0.2861, P = 0.04). Anterior fractures caused diplopia in both vertical gazes, but posterior fractures were mostly associated with diplopia in the up gaze. OVR was strongly associated with RE (R 2 = 0.663, P < 0.0001) and moderately associated with CE (R 2 = 0.4378, P < 0.0001). The univariate regression analysis also showed that OVR could significantly predict CE and RE.Conclusions: OVR surpasses other CT scan measurements such as FA and HV in the prediction of clinical enophthalmos. Thus, OVR could be utilized to estimate clinical enophthalmos at the time of presentation, especially when the acute clinical setting prohibits the proper clinical evaluation.","PeriodicalId":15423,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Current Ophthalmology","volume":"36 1","pages":"89-95"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11567609/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142647953","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is characterized by the symptoms such as pain, progressive swelling of the eye, double vision, and bulging of the eye. Although LACC is a rare tumor, early detection and appropriate treatment are crucial due to its aggressive nature which includes high recurrence rate and a significant risk of mortality. The primary treatment options for LACC involve a wide range of surgical procedures, including orbitotomy, exenteration, and cranio-orbital resection.

PERAMIS aberrometry (PERAMIS; SCHWIND eye-tech-solutions, Kleinostheim, Germany), DR, and CR, as well as SR, were completed for all candidates. The repeatability of PERAMIS measurements was assessed, and the Bland-Altman plots were used to test the agreement between different methods.Results: Repeatability of the PERAMIS aberrometer was very high in the measurement of all refractive elements (Sphere, cylinder, spherical equivalent [M], J0, and J45) (interclass correlation coefficient >0.980 for all). A significant myopic shift was found with WFR compared to CR (0.45 diopter [D]) and SR (0.28 D) (P < 0.05). For the M component, there was a significant difference between WFR and CR (P < 0.05). J0 component measured with WFR was significantly different from SR and CR (P < 0.05). For the J45 variable, all three refraction methods were comparable (all, P > 0.05). In M > 5.00 D, a difference of 0.79 D (limit of agreement: -3.50-1.90) was found between WFR and CR.Conclusions: In lower degrees of myopia, WFR was in good agreement with the manifest autorefraction.

Trabeculectomy was performed according to the author's modification of Moorfields Safer Surgery System. This method allows titrating the opening pressure of trabeculectomy by varying the side cuts, varying the ostium size, and adjusting the tightness of the sutures. Forty-four eyes of 43 patients were included. Main outcome measures include postoperative intraocular pressure (IOP), incidence of intra and postoperative complications, and success up to 6 months after surgery.Results: The mean preoperative and postoperative IOP at 6 months were 20.97 ± 7.93 mmHg and 12.69 ± 4.76 mmHg, respectively (n = 44). 70.5% of the patients had absolute success at 6 months, and the overall success was 88.6%. None of the patients had hypotony and there were no intraoperative complications noted. Forty-two out of 44 eyes (95.5%) had diffuse formed blebs without leak on the 1st postoperative day. The most common postoperative complication (13.6%) was a conjunctival leak that was detected on fluorescein staining. In all these patients, the anterior chamber was deep, and the bleb well formed. These leaks were resolved with conservative measures. Many of these leaks would have been missed if not intentionally looked for. Excluding this complication, we had a complication rate of 9.1%.Conclusion: The authors' modification of the Moorfields Safer Surgery System technique may allow the surgeon to optimize aqueous flow through trabeculectomy while mitigating complications.","PeriodicalId":15423,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Current Ophthalmology","volume":"36 1","pages":"23-30"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11567601/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142648048","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
