Intraocular or orbital foreign bodies when small or due to trivial trauma often go unnoticed or missed during examination especially a wooden foreign body. They can present as non-healing wounds and discharging fistulas with signs of chronic inflammation, cellulitis, foreign body granuloma or ocular complications such as corneal scars, traumatic cataract, hyphema, glaucoma, retinal tear and detachment. This case report highlights the importance of detailed history taking and proper diagnosis which plays an important role in the management of such cases.

Ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN) is the most common type of ocular tumour. An eighty-year-old man with an elevated lesion in the right eye was diagnosed to have OSSN. 1% topical 5-FU was started as an intermittent treatment. Examination during each visit showed consistent reduction in size of lesion. The patient showed complete regression with no recurrence following treatment with 1% 5-FU at 3 months from presentation. Tropical treatment with 1% 5-FU provides excellent prognosis in cases of OSSN.

A baby full term born of LSCS to a otherwise healthy mother was referred for ophthalmology department. On ophthalmological torch light examination, the patient had equal upper and lower lid bilateral ectropion. There was missing eye lashes noted. The anterior segment evaluation was found to be within normal limit without evidence of corneal opacities. Lamellar ichthyosis otherwise termed as Collodion baby is a infrequent disease; and there is no well-known management protocol. The Patient was managed conservatively by the use of Hydroxy propyl methyl cellulose (2% w/v) eye ointment and lubricant (Carboxy methyl cellulose 0.5%) eye drops. Thus, surgical intervention was avoided and patient was managed medically on ointments and drops

To describe the management strategy and evaluate the outcome of Anophthalmic socket syndrome. This retrospective case study includes 40 patients with anophthalmic socket syndrome who attended the orbit and ocular oncology department of Ispahani Islamia Eye Hospital from January 1, 2018, to June 31, 2021 were included in this study. All the information regarding age, gender, initial pathology, type of initial surgery, implant, degree of contraction, the procedure of socket reconstruction, the management outcome and complication were recorded and analyzed correctly. 17 males (42.5%) and 23 females (57.5%) with a mean age of 24.47 years were included in the study. Trauma (30%) and Tumour (25%) were the main reasons for initial eye removal. Enucleation performed in 24 (60%) cases was the most common initial surgery. The primary implant was not done in 20 (50%) cases. Mild socket contraction (grade 1) was recorded in 10 (25%) cases. Moderate contraction (grade 2 and 3) in 25(62.5%) cases and severe contraction (grade 4) in 5(12.5%) cases were recorded. Only fornix forming suture was done in 10 (25%) cases, mucous membrane graft (MMG) was done in 27 (67.5%) cases and dermis fat graft was done in 3 (7.5%) cases. All the patients were followed up routinely for six months. The outcome was good in 16 (40%) cases, acceptable in 20 (50%), and poor in 4 (10%) cases. A common complication was infection (5%) and fat atrophy (5%).: Anophthalmic socket syndrome remains a challenging entity for the oculoplastic surgeon. Multiple factors help to determine the overall prognosis of socket reconstruction. The goal of management is to provide a socket that can maintain a cosmetically acceptable prosthesis. Timely detection, proper correction of the underlying pathology and a high level of care directly correlate with expected surgical outcomes.

To study the statistics of the epidemiology, co-morbidities, clinical presentations, management and prognosis of the study group. This is a retrospective study conducted in a tertiary care hospital in South India, among 100 subjects, between May 2021 and August 2021 when the Mucor mycosis cases were frequently being diagnosed and treated amongst COVID-19 infected patients. The results showed that 34.0% were between 51-60 years with 100% patients confirmed COVID positive through RTPCR tests. 86.0% had confirmed mucor on CT scan. 50.0% had both eyes vision of 6/60 on presentation. 67.% had periorbital swelling with 51% having prior co-morbidities.63.0% patients received tablet Posaconazole 30mg as medical treatment and 60.0% required no surgical management.10.0% required orbital exenteration and 21.0% required partial maxillectomy.2% experienced orbital apex syndrome as associated complications.97.0% were discharged post treatment with 3% mortality. There was a positive correlation of medical management with respect to anterior segment and posterior segment findings P<0.001 and P=0.79. There was a positive correlation between surgical treatment and anterior and posterior segment findings P<0.001 and P=0.43. There was a positive correlation between co-morbidities and death P<0.001, with 32.0% uncontrolled diabetics. This study shows that immune suppression is directly related to infectivity by mucor mycosis. In order to contain symptomatology and grave prognosis amongst patients, early diagnosis, affordable treatment and follow-up including patient education about the etiology and pathogenesis of the disease must be available.

The aim of the study was to determine the efficacy of lower concentration of Atropine 0.01% in promoting unaided visual acuity and slowing down the progression of myopia in children over 6 months. It was a hospital-based comparative study in the outpatient department of Ophthalmology, AL, LT, ACD, PPD, SPD, PGP were taken by Lenstar and Lensometer.The Comparative study was performed on 60 children from 9 to 15 years age group with initial myopic spherical equivalence from 0.5 to 6.00 D. The children were screened for visual acuity for distance and near using Snellen’s chart. Cycloplegic Refraction was done to know the presence of Refractive Errors. This study was approved by IRB Ethical Committee. (SCAHS/IRB/2022/JULY/420).The inclusion criteria include Ammetropic children with no binocular vision anomalies and no history of ocular disease. The primary outcome was the rate of myopic progression after 6 months. The participants were instructed to use Atropine 0.01% eye drops during night times for 6 months and the rate of myopic progression and the spherical equivalence, axial length, lens thickness, anterior chamber depth, photopic and scotopic pupil diameter were re-assessed to compare the progression of myopia in the children. Sixty children enrolled for six months study in which the mean progression of myopia was found to be within 0.27D and axial elongation shows 0.23 mm changes respectively, whereas there were no significant changes in the anterior chamber depth, lens thickness, photopic and scotopic pupil diameter before and after assessment in children. Spherical power, Axial Length, Anterior Chamber Depth, Lens Thickness, Photopic Pupil Diameter and Scotopic Pupil Diameter all showed significant progression from pre to post stages, with the average post reading deviating by 0.25 from the normal limits.

To study the incidence of cerebral visual impairment among children with history of perinatal neurological insult and congenital brain anomalies and to analyze the outcome following visual intervention programme. A prospective interventional study, examining 100 children less than 7 years over a period of 1 year. All children with history of perinatal hypoxia, neonatal hypoglycemia, neonatal seizures, infantile spasm, epilepsy, congenital hydrocephalus, congenital brain anomalies, CNS infections, traumatic brain injury and post cardiac surgery, excluding children with ocular visual impairment. Of the 100 children studied, the incidence of CVI was 87%. The associated ocular problems were found to be low visual acuity seen in 85%, strabismus in 25%, refractive error in 39%, Nystagmus in 21% and oculomotor apraxia in 6%. The most common etiology was hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy, contributing to 30% of the cases and most common MRI findings were periventricular leukomalacia, seen in 42%. CVI Range was used for functional visual assessment. Visual intervention rather than visual stimulation was taught to the primary care giver and children were followed up every 3 months. 26% of children had improved in their functional vision after 6 months of Individualized intervention. Early identification and individualized visual intervention, integrating them into many activities of the child across the whole day, form a crucial part of the visual outcome. Improvement in vision creates access to a world of cognitive and motor development.

To present the demographic and clinical profile and management strategies of patients with periocular and orbital amyloidosis. This study retrospectively reviewed the clinical records of twelve patients with periocular and orbital amyloidosis between January 2011 and February 2019 in Bangladesh. Clinical evaluation and Imaging studies were helpful to diagnosis the patients, but surgical biopsy followed by histopathological study was done to confirm the diagnosis. All cases were investigated to rule out systemic amyloidosis with limited facility and no systemic involvement was found. Informed written consent for surgical procedure and Clinical photographs were taken for all patients for documentation and clinical research. The study included thirteen patients including nine male (69.2%) and four female (30.8%) patients. Among the patients, seven (53.8%) were unilateral and six (46.2%) were bilateral. Clinical signs and symptoms were visible or palpable periocular mass or tissue infiltration in all 13 (100%) cases, mechanical ptosis was observed in 6 (46.2%) cases, and proptosis or globe displacement was found in 4 (30.8%). Age ranges from 25 years to 65 years. The Mean age ± SD was 48.23 ± 10.64 years. Treatment modalities were mainly open surgical biopsy either excision (53.8%) or debulking (46.2%). Periocular and orbital amyloidosis may present with a wide spectrum of clinical findings depending on the location of the disease. The goal of treatment is to preserve function and to prevent sight-threatening complications.
