Here we describe a case where we were able to salvage vision by corneal autografting in a blind patient. Case: A 65-year-old male had blurred vision in both eyes with visual acuity of perception of light (PL) in right eye (RE) and hand motion (HM) in left eye (LE). On examination, RE had a clear cornea, sluggish pupillary reaction with presence of Relative afferent pupillary defect and glaucomatous optic atrophy. Left eye had a corneal opacity following healed corneal ulcer. RE Penetrating Keratoplasty (PK) using an allograft and left eye PK using the contralateral autograft was done. Post-operatively, RE developed persistent epithelial defect and eventually failed after 2 months while the left autograft got fully epithelialized and remained clear till 2 years follow up even after steroids were stopped. Conclusion: Autokeratoplasty have higher chances of graft survival due to the absence of immune graft rejection and resultant postoperative endothelial cell loss. Hence, it may be considered first in any case where there is this unique combination of opaque cornea in an eye with better visual potential and a clear cornea in an eye without visual potential.","PeriodicalId":91712,"journal":{"name":"International journal of ophthalmology and clinical research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42497046","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}

Aims: Based on their similarity and apparent relationship, non-invasive measurement of intraocular pressure might substitute for lumbar puncture for measuring cerebrospinal fluid pressure in near future. Settings and design: Hospital based prospective cohort study. Methods and material: 120 patients after their informed consent and approval by institutional ethical committee. All patients who were above 18 years; could give consent and who underwent lumber puncture for any neurological symptom or diagnostic reasons and intraocular pressure was measured using Schiotz tonometer, were eligible for this study. Statistical analysis used: Chi square test between ordinal (intraocular pressure) and categorical (intracranial pressure) values, and linear regression for ordinal (both intraocular pressure and intracranial pressure) values. Results: 68.5% (89/120) of patients had normal intracranial pressure between 5 and 15 mmhg, while 29.2% (38/120) of patients had elevated intracranial pressure of more than 15 mmhg. regarding mean intraocular pressure values, 6.9% (9/120) of patients had lower intraocular pressure, less than 10 mmhg: 90.8% (118/120) of patients with normal intraocular pressure between 10 and 21 mmhg, the other 2.3% (3/120) of patients with higher intraocular pressure more than 21 mmhg. our results showed that intracranial pressure was significantly and positively correlated with intraocular pressure intracranial pressure was correlated significantly with intraocular pressure of the right eyes and intraocular pressure of the left eyes and mean intraocular pressure (MIOP) of both eyes. Conclusions: The findings in our study are statistically significant suggest that the elevated intracranial pressure may have acted as a counter pressure across the lamina cribrosa to compensate for the elevated intraocular pressure. This correlation is helpful in proving that intraocular pressure can replace invasive modalities for intracranial pressure in the near future.","PeriodicalId":91712,"journal":{"name":"International journal of ophthalmology and clinical research","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42155967","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}

Methods: A retrospective analysis of 10 eyes of 10 patients with corneal epithelial irregularities (9 with recurrent erosion syndrome and 1 Salzmann nodule) who were treated with alcohol delamination between November 2015 and January 2018 was conducted. Results: All patients achieved success, defined as complete resolution of symptoms for at least one month. However, continued success (defined as complete resolution of symptoms for at least one year) was achieved in only 70% of them. One of them had not enough follow up to apply this definition and the other two had relapses of soreness before a year. One of them had a new alcohol delamination of the epithelium and after 6 months being still symptomatic, a phototherapeutic keratectomy was performed achieving resolution of symptoms. The other was asymptomatic for 3 months and then started to have episodes of soreness every 6-8 weeks. After intensive lubrication for 10 months with no improvement, treatment with plasma rich in growth factors eye drops was started. After six months the patient reported no symptoms. Conclusion: Alcohol delamination is a good treatment for symptomatic corneal irregularities when intensive lubrication does not improve the condition. If that treatment fails, a new alcohol delamination, phototherapeutic keratectomy or plasma rich in growth factors eye drops are good second line alternatives.","PeriodicalId":91712,"journal":{"name":"International journal of ophthalmology and clinical research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44245005","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}
