Quantification of straylight induced by silicone oil adherent to intraocular lenses of different materials.
A complication of using silicone oil as an intraocular endotamponade is its adhesion to intraocular lenses (IOLs). Forward light scattering is a measure to quantify the optical disturbance caused by adherent oil droplets. We tested the straylight caused by silicone oil adhesion to different IOLs and examined whether an approved cleaning solution, F4H5, reverses the induced straylight.

Subretinal Foveal PFCL Micro-Droplets Removal “Bubble Inside Bubble” (BIB) Technique Without Intraoperative OCT
Subretinal migration is a relatively rare complication of the use of perfluorocarbon liquids (PFCL) in the management of complicated retinal detachments. These PFCL droplets are toxic to the functioning of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and are responsible for atrophy1. Peripheral droplets may be ignored, but when located at the posterior pole - especially at foveolar level - they threaten central visual function. (Source: American Journal of Ophthalmology)

Accuracy of toric intraocular lens calculations using estimated versus measured posterior corneal astigmatism.
Toric intraocular lenses (tIOL) provide the opportunity to reduce postoperative refractive astigmatism and improve visual quality.1 Nonetheless, accurately predicting the final refractive astigmatism remains a challenge. Previous studies have stressed the importance of posterior corneal astigmatism (PCA) in predicting postoperative astigmatism.2,3 Traditionally, a fixed ratio between the anterior and posterior corneal curvature was assumed to estimate the total corneal astigmatism. However, Koch et al. (Source: American Journal of Ophthalmology)

Novel surgical technique for sutureless scleral fixation of an intraocular lens using internal loops. “Shamil Technique”
Through this work, we will describe a novel technique for suture-less scleral fixation of an intraocular lens using internal loops. The aim is to reduce intraocular maneuvers which makes it as a very simple and achievable technique and with a short learning curve. We call it “Shamil Technique".

Bilateral scleritis at the onset of macrophage activation syndrome
A 16-year-old girl with a history of Still disease, diagnosed at the age of 6 and in remission since 2020, presented to the emergency department with persistent high fever (38.7 °C), skin rash, cervical and angulo-mandibular lymphadenopathies, splenomegaly (A), neutrophilic leukocytosis, thrombocytopenia, elevation of liver enzymes and hypofibrinogenemia. She also complained of abdominal pain, diffuse myalgia, headache and ocular pain associated with redness in both eyes. Acute phase reactants were markedly elevated (ESR: 86 mm/h; CRP: 40.31 mg/dl; ferritin 5074 ng/ml). (Source: American Journal of Ophthalmology)
