METHODS: A total of 30 eyes of 30 patients with localized or diffuse hyperemia after trabeculectomy with MMC were enrolled in this prospective interventional case series. Two milligrams of TA were injected at the site of maximal injection. Bleb morphology was graded using Indiana Bleb Appearance Grading Scale (IBAGS), and the Moorfields Bleb Grading System (MBGS) 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year after injection...

Purpose: To report a case of a grown Soemmering ring that manifested as an iris tumour 24 years after cataract surgery. Methods: A case report. Results: A 27-year-old white man was presented with a suspected iris tumour in his left eye. He had undergone lensectomy in both eyes without intraocular lens implantation 24 years ago. Last year, he was treated by topical anti-glaucoma medication for left eye intraocular pressure (IOP) rising. Six months later, his ophthalmologist found two separate iris bumps...

PURPOSE: To evaluate the effect of postoperative latanoprost administration on central macular thickness (CMT) after uneventful cataract surgery in glaucoma patients. SETTING: Farabi Eye Hospital, Tehran, Iran. DESIGN: Prospective randomized clinical trial. METHODS: In this single-masked trial, glaucoma patients treated with latanoprost who had no other risk factor for the development of pseudophakic macular edema were randomly allocated to continuation of latanoprost or discontinuation of the drop after uneventful cataract surgery...

BACKGROUND: The overall aim of this study was to determine retinal venous pressure (RVP) in healthy chronic smokers and compare values to those of healthy non-smokers. METHODS: Both eyes of 25 healthy chronic smokers and 41 healthy non-smokers were included. Measurements of RVP were performed by means of contact lens ophthalmodynamometry. Ophthalmodynamometry is done by applying increasing force on the eye via a contact lens. If a spontaneous venous pulsation was present, it was noted...

A 14-year-old boy presented with a 6-month history of small white masses in his right eye. Examination revealed a white floating fluffy lesion and 2 vegetative hornlike white lesions originating at the periphery of the iris. On ultrasound biomicroscopy, a normal echogenic mass was detected on the inferior iris root and angle, with no posterior chamber or cilliary body involvement. Histopathology following an excisional biopsy revealed keratinous material. There was no recurrence during 10 months of follow-up...
