Clinical Evaluation of Visual Prognosis of Traumatic Cataract Patients

We have evaluated our clinical results of the traumatic cataract operations in 109 patients, 112 eyes. Group 1 (72eyes) was defined that the best corrected vision was 0.1 or better at the final follow up visit, group 2 (40 eyes) less than 0.1 vision. And we have analyzed the predictors of the visual outcome. Average age of patients was 33 years old and male were 89 patients, female 20. The most significant predictors of good visual prognosis were left eye among both eyes, good initial visual acuity, presence of anterior capsular rupture, but absence of hyphema, iris prolapse into the wound, vitreous prolapse into the anterior chamber, lens subluxation or dislocation. It was not statistically significant with final corrected visual acuity that were type and location of injury, location and extent of corneal laceration, method of cataract extraction and timing of intraocular lens implantation.

Surgical Results of Adjustable Strabismus Surgery in Horizontal Rectus Muscles

Adjustable strabismus surgery has been done in adult, young adult, and cooperative children and that decrease the rates of overcorrection or undercorrection occurred at immediate and long-term follow up of strabismus surgery. We reviewed the postoperative alignment, drift, and amount of adjustment in 47 patients between 13 and 67 years. We analyzed results for 35 exotropia and 12 esotropia surgeries. All patients underwent a minimum of 8 weeks follow up. The procedure was done by same operator, adjustment was taken at the day afternoon or next day morning. The evaluation of success based on distanct deviation was orthophoric and less than 10 prism diopters. The success rates were 85.71% in exotropia and 91.67% in esotropia. The mean postoperative drift in prism diopters from the alignment immediately after adjustment, or after the surgery if no adjustment was needed, for each group as measured during the most recent follow up was 4.26 for exotropia and 7.5 for esotropia.
