Ten pseudophakic patients with DMRI were submitted to the implantation of intraocular SML in the dominant eye in the period of December of 2017 to the March of 2018. All the patients had answered the Low-Vision Quality of Life Questionaire (LVQOLQ) before and after the surgery, with interval of 30 days.

Pathological myopia is a major cause of blindness worldwide that is becoming increasingly more prevalent in many countries of the world including Egypt [1,2]. Its exact cause is unknown; however, multiple genetic and environmental factors are thought to play a role in its complex pathogenesis [3]. The hallmark of pathological myopia is excessive and progressive axial length elongation which leads to degenerative changes in the sclera, choroid, and retinal pigment epithelium and compromises visual function [4,5]. Clinically, these changes include tessellated fundus, lacquer cracks, atrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium and choroid, choroidal neovascular membrane, posterior staphyloma, Fuchs’ spot, macular hole, foveoschisis, retinal breaks and detachments, and peripheral retinal lesions [6]. The effect of these manifestations on the visual performance of patients with pathological myopia can be substantial which emphasizes the value of the correct diagnosis and management of these complications. In this article, we review the clinical and morphological characteristics of the various posterior segment manifestations that can occur in pathological myopia as well as the value of multimodal imaging in the diagnosis and management of these manifestations.

An 8 years old male presented with rapidly detoriating vision in right eye with pain, redness and watering over a period of four days. He had history of trauma to right eye with fire cracker injury 3 days back on eve of festival “Diwali” in India. Right eye had visual acuity of perception of light (PL) only. On slit lamp examination, he had corneal perforation and hypopyon. Ultrasonography was suggestive of endophthalmitis. The exudates from vitreous and anterior chamber were sent for microbiological testing which showed the organism to be Bacillus cereus. He was treated with repair of corneal perforation with intracameral Vancomycin wash and intravtreal Vancomycin injection. Two days post operatively the hypopyon was cleared with decreased exudates in vitreous. Topical moxifloxacin was continued and second dose of intravitreal Vancomycin was given after 72 hours. After 7 days the symptoms improved with vision of 4/60.
