Scheimpflug imaging in paediatric glaucoma

The authors undertook this study to report the corneal tomographic characteristics of eyes that had surgery for controlled primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) compared to a control group. The study included 44 eyes of 27 children (18 males) having surgery for...

Bovine pericardium scleral patch graft associated scleritis: Ahmed valve implant for pupillary block glaucoma

Processed bovine pericardium is a lyophilised collagen sheet used as a surgical armamentarium. It renders the material antigenically inert with minimal inflammation [1]. Sclera patch pericardium graft (Tutopatch) is a collagenous membrane derived from solvent preserved, irradiated bovine pericardium [2]...

Surgery for chin-up head posture

This study evaluates the outcomes of bilateral superior oblique posterior tenectomy along with inferior rectus recessions (minimum of 5mm) on the chin-up head position in 13 patients with horizontal nystagmus who had an eccentric null point in downgaze. The study...

A modified technique for external DCR

The authors described a modified technique for external dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) whereby the lacrimal sac is excised medially along its length using a 15mm blade. Following insertion of silicone stents, the remaining part of the anterior wall of the lacrimal sac...

Surgical technique for small-angle hypertropia

In order to treat small-angle hypertropia of <5PF associated with mild / moderate upshoot in adduction, an option is to suture the inferior oblique (IO) belly to the sclera following its natural muscle direction or with anterior transposition. This study...

Surgical treatment for monocular elevation deficit

Type 1 monocular elevation deficiency is a restrictive form identified by positive results on forced duction testing in elevation, normal elevation forced generation test, elevation of saccadic velocity and absence of poor Bell’s phenomenon. The authors aimed to evaluate the...

Anatomical measurements for degree orientation and muscle insertions for rectus muscles

This study reports the relative degree orientation of the superior, lateral and inferior rectus muscles with respect to the medial rectus, and the distances between the rectus muscle insertions. The study involved 30 cadavers (60 eyes), all White, 50% female...

Inferior oblique muscle features

The authors aimed to study and morphometrically define the surgical anatomy of the inferior oblique muscle and its variations, and to outline surgical coordinates to aid location of the inferior oblique origin and nerve supply to the inferior oblique muscle....
