“…We could reduce phaco energy and time by combination of low phaco power with high-suction along with phaco fragmentation technique like chopping as evident from Table 1. This had further minimised risk of inadvertent complications by frequent changes in the position ofphacoprobe [5,11,12]. Our observations commensurate with the findings of other workers [5,10,11].…”

Phacoemulsification surgery is rapidly emerging as accepted latest surgical technique for the management of cataract. Retrospective analysis of first fifty cases of phacoemulsification surgery performed in our setup were critically evaluated to assess efficacy and adaptability of this procedure in Armed Forces setup. Results of initial twenty five cases were compared qualitatively with subsequent cases. Equipment settings, operative constraints, post-operative complications, effects on induced astigmatism, visual outcome and patient's rehabilitation were critically evaluated. Corneal striate, iris chaffing, posterior capsular rent were noted initial problems. Induced astigmatism was ranging between 0.5 to 1.0 Dioptre with early decay and complete stabilisation within four weeks. Inspite of excellent visual outcome, complex technique, steep and long learning curve restricts its application to institutional setup.

“…All surgeries were outpatient and performed by one surgeon (RJU). All eyes underwent the standard PHACO IOL operation (Fine et al 1993). In 24 cases, a 3.5‐mm temporal clear corneal incision, and in 14 cases, a 4.0‐mm scleral incision with no sutures was used.…”

BackgroundGlaucoma is an optic neuropathy associated with visual field loss. There are different types of glaucoma, among them exfoliative glaucoma. Glaucoma can present as unilateral or bilateral. The present study aimed to show the association between gene expression and exfoliation in unilateral glaucoma cases.MethodsIncluded patients were suffering from exfoliative glaucoma in one eye, meanwhile the other eye was healthy and used as a control. Lens capsule and conjunctival biopsies were taken from both eyes. Gene expression was analyzed.ResultsBoth groups were completely different at baseline regarding intraocular pressure, visual acuity before the operation, visual field damage, optic nerve damage, etc. As for gene expression, the only significant difference was found in CYP1B1 from lens capsules. None of the other genes studied showed differential expression in either lens capsules or conjunctival biopsies.ConclusionNo difference in gene expression was found between eyes with and without exfoliative glaucoma. Exfoliative glaucoma seems to be a bilateral disease, though the phenotype is not always clinically present.
