The physiology of tear drainage has been clarified by the use of lacrimal scintillography, introduced within the last decade. During the same time, anatomical depiction of the drainage pathways has been enhanced by utilisation of refined contrast-medium radiology. The results of surgery from the Unit of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Sydney Eye Hospital, 1973-1977, in patients with a chronically wet eye, and evaluated preoperatively on a clinical basis only, are reviewed, and the potential benefit of X-rays and scintigrams appraised in retrospect. Of 150 wet eyes undergoing D.C.R. +/- some form of intubation, 89% achieved success with the first operation, and 7% achieved subsequent procedure. The success rates at first operation within the three groups were: DCR 92%, DCR + canalicular intubation 81%, DCR + Jones conjunctivorhinostomy tube 90%. An apparent selection error of 1.3% was elicited which accurate X-ray and scintigram conceivably could have avoided.

Thirteen anorexia nervosa patients and 13 control subjects were examined for cataract and xerophthalmia. Although 11 patients had Vitamin A intakes below recommended daily levels for significant periods of time, there was no evidence to suggest that they had an increased incidence of pathological changes in conjunctiva or lens.

Some examples will be noted where the strabismus surgeon plans the patient to have more than one operation. Unfortunately most multistage strabismus procedures are unplanned and are a consequence of failure of the initial surgery. The three most common causes of such failure will be discussed. Brief mention will be made of the more important surgical techniques for rectus muscles that have had repeated operations.

The National Registry of Drug-induced Ocular Side Effects is an international information centre for ocular toxicology. The Registry collects case reports of drug-induced ocular side effects from physicians and other national registries, and surveys the world literature for drug-related ocular events. Possible adverse drug associations can be identified in this system, and cause-and-effect relationships may on occasion be proven. Functions of this Registry include increasing ophthalmic awareness of human ocular toxicology, and promoting continuation of contributions to decrease the delay between recognition of a possible adverse drug reaction and the actual reporting of it in the literature.
