We present a case of silent sinus syndrome (SSS) who underwent unilateral surgical endoscopic maxillary meatotomy. Orbital floor reconstruction is delayed after follow up. Enophthalmos recovered 8 months after the surgery and radiologic findings improved. SSS is a clinical entity that should be kept in mind in the differential diagnosis of enophthalmos and can be treated successfully via endoscopic approach.

planners of eye care programmes in leprosy management, and further similar studies elsewhere would provide additional helpful information. Since the early 1990s, much has been done to reduce leprosy related eye pathology to current levels. The difficulty is often in maintaining the momentum of eye care strategies. There is a need for (1) adequate numbers of ophthalmologists trained in leprosy, with a teaching as well as a clinical remit; (2) adequate numbers of ophthalmic trained nursing and paramedical personnel; (3) adequate measures for continuing education of paramedical personnel, maintaining and increasing their ophthalmic clinical examination and diagnostic skills; (4) adequate ongoing health education of patients and the vulnerable public regarding the eye complications of leprosy and the need for early diagnosis. It is known that, at present, the main cause of blindness in leprosy is cataract. Although, in some instances, other ocular pathology coexists, most patients gain some improvement in visual acuity with cataract surgery (unless obvious contraindications are present). Resources allocated to dealing with this backlog of patients, and to other blindness prevention strategies in leprosy, would reduce the need for longer term resource allocation to care of the visually handicapped or blind, as well as improving the quality of life and possibly restoring economic and social independence for many. The World Health Organization’s aim to eliminate leprosy as a public health problem, by bringing the prevalence down to less than one per 10 000 by the year 2000 was not achieved in a number of countries, where it has been extended to 2010. The focus is now, perhaps rightly, on AIDS which is numerically a larger problem, and one with a rapidly increasing prevalence and a high mortality rate. However, to prematurely consign leprosy to the history books guarantees unnecessary future morbidity, including blindness, with inadequate knowledge and resources to manage it effectively.

Descemet's stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) is an increasingly popular techniquefor transplanting corneal endothelial cells. The presence of glaucoma, and especially glaucoma tubes, however, renders the DSAEK procedure more challenging. Here, we present a case of DSAEK in a patient with quadruple glaucoma tubes.

A 35-year-old man complained of progressive exophthalmos on the left eye for six months. MRI revealed approximately 18 mm x 17 mm cyst neoplasm across the inner and outer muscle cone in the left orbital cavity. Extraction was performed. The cyst wall of the tumor had the infiltration of the cancer cells and contained the residual lacrimal gland tissue. The patient refused further cranio-orbital resection or preoperative/postoperative radiotherapy or chemotherapy. Following for nine years found no local recurrence or systemic metastasis.

Effectiveness of multiple subconjunctival bevacizumab injections in advanced primary pterygium was studied the first time. Treatment produced regression of pteryium and improvement of best-corrected visual acuity from 20/100 to 20/60 at 6-mont follow-up. Off-label short-term use of sbconjunctival bevaciumab is effective.

We compared the vitreous and plasma levels of proinflammatory cytokines in diabetic patients who underwent pars plana vitrectomy. Levels of proinflammatory cytokines in the vitreous were higher in the diabetic patients than the non-diabetics while the levels of plasma cytokines were similar. It is thought that this increase in the vitreous is effective in the progression of angiogenesis and the development of proliferative diabetic retinopathy.

We report a 53-year-old woman with laser iridotomy (LI)-resistant angle-closure and conjunctival injection, which was thought to be the cause of ciliochoroidal effusion associated with short-lasting unilateral neuralgiform headache with conjunctival injection and tearing (SUNCT) syndrome. LI had no effect on any of the symptoms except for intraocular pressure. The symptoms disappeared after a subsequent procedure for SUNCT syndrome. MRI of the left eye showed ciliochoroidal effusion at paroxysm and was normalized upon relief.
