Endophthalmitis Occurring after Cataract Surgery: Outcomes of More Than 480 000 Cataract Surgeries, Epidemiologic Features, and Risk Factors

Endophthalmitis Occurring after Cataract Surgery: Outcomes of More Than 480 000 Cataract Surgeries, Epidemiologic Features, and Risk Factors

The incidence of endophthalmitis after cataract surgery in our center was 0.023%, comparable with that of other previously published international studies. Older rural patients with immune suppressive diseases, such as diabetes mellitus, are particularly more prone to endophthalmitis. Vitreous loss at the time of surgery was associated with a significantly increased risk. Whereas antibiotic prophylaxis overall showed a 40% to 50% reduction in risk, intracameral cefuroxime was 100% effective in preventing endophthalmitis in this series.

Corneal Biomechanical Findings in Contact Lens Induced Corneal Warpage

Corneal Biomechanical Findings in Contact Lens Induced Corneal Warpage

The idea of evaluating corneal biomechanical properties for differentiating contact lens induced corneal warpage from keratoconus is a novel idea. The results of this study showed that there might be a potential application for detecting the subjects who are prone to warpage. Further studies are required on the corneal structure and histology of these three groups, with including one normal group with no history of the contact lens use, to prove our findings and find biological explanations for these differences. It is also recommended to use more advanced methods for the measurement of corneal biomechanical properties.

Multifocal Surgically Induced Necrotizing Scleritis Following Strabismus Surgery: A Case Report

Multifocal Surgically Induced Necrotizing Scleritis Following Strabismus Surgery: A Case Report

To our knowledge, this is the first documented case of multifocal surgically induced necrotizing scleritis occurring after strabismus surgery. This study also highlights the fact that scleritis may recur even in an area distant from the site of surgery, despite initial control. It seems that maybe with a longer course of treatment it is less likely to recur, and tapering medications should be carefully managed.
