A case is presented of a 24-year-old woman with acute, painless visual loss that oc- curred after sneezing. The patient had no previ- ous ocular disease history. Ophthalmic work-up revealed a cilioretinal artery occlusion in the right eye. Transesophageal echocardiography showed a secundum atrial septal defect with right-to-left shunt. Sudden visual loss requires thorough inves- tigation to determine the cause. In this case, exami- nation revealed a retinal artery occlusion, whose risk factors include older age, systemic hyperten- sion, diabetes mellitus, atherosclerosis, and giant cell arteritis (temporal) in more than 75% of pa- tients. Especially in patients younger than 40 years, an embolus of cardiac origin (atrial septal defect, patent foramen ovale, or valvular) should be sus- pected as a cause of retinal artery occlusion.

1 To the Editor: Koenig has described a marking technique of the donor’s lenticule for the improvement of centration during lenticule trephination as part of Descemet’s stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty surgery.1 We would like to commend the author for his publication. During the last years we have been using a similar technique successfully; however, our modification obviates the need for the the 10-mm trephine described in Koenig’s technique. We instill a small drop of vital stain (usually VisionBlue trypan blue 0.06%; DORC International, Zuidland, Netherlands) to the round gutter created after the removal of the anterior lenticule while the donor tissue is still anchored to the artificial anterior chamber. A thin dye film subsequently spreads along and around the gutter, marking the edges of the exposed stroma (Figure). Hence, a central trephination inside or through the mark is feasible, ensuring the creation of a thin and uniform lenticule, which will improve the success of the surgery. We would also like to add that unlike the trephination of a full-thickness cornea for penetrating keratoplasty, the trephination of the posterior lamella for DSAEK causes no sound or sensation in the surgeon’s fingers. These delicate signs are important clues that a complete trephination has taken place. In order to ensure complete trephination, we adopted Busin’s technique. While the lenticule is still pressed in the trephine cradle, we rotate the outer corneal rim with forceps, making sure that a complete cut was made all around. It is important to note that most of the marked margins are cut away from the graft during trephination, limiting the endothelial exposure of the dye.

Recent advances in ophthalmic imaging have created the need for accurate, user-friendly, and widely compatible viewing platforms. In addition, post-capture image manipulation including micrometer-level measurements are becoming increasingly important. OsiriX is an opensource viewing platform approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration originally designed for viewing Digital Images and Communication in Medicine (DICOM) images generated by radiologic studies. The authors report the use of OsiriX for importing optical coherence tomography images, highlighting details with various contrast windows, and accurate calibration for detailed anatomic measurements. This viewing modality may be useful in performing accurate, detailed manipulations of ophthalmic images for clinical evaluation, research, and publication purposes.

: Lens-iris diaphragm retropulsion syndrome is mainly caused by a reverse pupillary block as a result of a defect or laxity in the zonular apparatus. It is characterized by a posterior displacement of the lens-iris diaphragm with posterior iris bowing, pupil dilation, and pain. The authors describe a new management technique using an iris hook retractor to lift the iris to relieve the pupillary block.
