When a correction factor of 32 microm was applied to OCT measurements, the means of three devices became significantly equal. The adjusted OCT measurements were less precise within subjects but more accurate than Orbscan when compared with ultrasound pachymetry as a reference standard. The mean CCT measurement of our sample was comparable to some studies on Hong Kong Chinese, Caucasians and Japanese but higher than those on some Europeans, Asian and North Americans of African origin.

Deepening of upper lid sulcus is one of the adverse effects related to treatment with bimatoprost. This effect may be more prominent in Asians who have relatively full upper lid sulcus.

A 44-year-old man suffered traumatic 360-degree cyclodialysis in the left eye complicated by persistent hypotony, disc edema, maculopathy, and cataract. Treatment was removal of the cataract with phacoemulsification followed by insertion of a capsular tension ring with 2-point scleral suture fixation with polypropylene in the ciliary sulcus. A foldable acrylic posterior chamber intraocular lens was implanted in the capsular bag through the 4.1 mm corneal tunnel incision. The intraocular pressure responded well with resolution of hypotony, choroidal detachment, disc edema, and maculopathy. Ultrasound biomicroscopy showed complete closure of the cyclodialysis cleft.

Brimonidine 0.2% was found to have an efficacy comparable to that of apraclonidine 1.0% in preventing post LPI IOP spikes. Apraclonidine 1.0% tends to have a pupil dilating effect while brimonidine 0.2% tends to constrict the pupil.

Combined NPDS and phacoemulsification could be a safe and effective surgical option for the management of CACG with cataract.
