<p>The purpose of this clinical study was to determine the level of patients satisfaction after prosthodontic treatment.</p><p>This cross sectional study was conducted in Altamash Institute of Dental Medicine, a total of 200 partially edentulous patients already restored with removable or fixed prosthesis participated in this study. Patient satisfaction was evaluated by Likert's scale. The Patients were given options of unsatisfied, not very satisfied, neutral, somewhat satisfied and satisfied to evaluate patients level of satisfaction for factors such as phonetics, pain, mastication, taste and esthetics.</p><p>After statistical analysis, Likert scale score's positively for all factors such as phonetics, pain, mastication, taste and esthetics.</p><p>After prosthodontic treatment patients show high level of satisfaction with their prosthesis though showing positive impact of prosthesis on oral health.</p>

Background: CVS and dry eye disease due to computers, in general, is well documented, butspecific literature on smartphone usage leading to these conditions is limited. This study aims toestimate the prevalence of dry eye and determine the effect of duration of use on the CVSsymptoms in college-going smartphone users. Aims: (1) To find a correlation between smartphoneusage and dry eye(2)To find the prevalence of dry eye disease in the smartphone using collegestudents (3)To study whether the duration and pattern of smartphone usage has a bearing on theseverity of CVS symptoms. Materials and Methods: 394 medical students using smartphones forover a year and without pre-existing dry eye disease or ocular surface pathology were included. Tearfilm parameters were estimated. The duration of use and smartphone settings were correlated withthe prevalence of dry eye and computer vision syndrome symptoms. Results: The prevalence of dryeye was 20.81%. The average DED score was 1.56±0.234, and 1.35±0.248 respectively in the DEDand non-DED group with a p-value of 0.0001. The most common CVS symptoms were fatigue (54%in DED,44% in non-DED) and heaviness in both groups (60.9% in DED, 45% in non-DED group.).Conclusions: There was a statistically significant increase in the DED symptom score and theprevalence of CVS symptoms with increasing duration of use and daily exposure to smartphones.

Introduction: Primary Intraocular lens implantation is the most preferred method of paediatric cataract management. However there is little literature on secondary correction of aphakia with IOL implantation. Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ciliary sulcus implantation of posterior chamber IOLs in cases of paediatric aphakia. Materials and Methods: The charts of 33 patients (52 eyes) ranging from 2-15 years of age, who underwent secondary implantation of PCIOL in the ciliary sulcus between 2016-17 were studied. Those cases that had sufficient capsular support after primary cataract extraction were included. Demographic data was obtained and correlated with the final outcomes in terms of refractive error, post op complications and visual outcome. Results: The final mean visual acuity in log MAR was 0.64±0.42. 43% of eyes showed good visual acuity 0.4-0.6 log MAR. After surgery 85% patients with amblyopia showed good visual good response to occlusion therapy. Patients with aphakia operated for traumatic cataract achieved better visual acuity than those with congenital cataract (0.31±0.36 and 0.64±0.42 respectively). Mean difference of -0.06D was observed between targeted refraction and actual refraction. Conclusions: Patients who had early primary cataract surgery showed better final visual acuity. Our observed complication rate showed that this method of aphakia correction is safe and effective.
