Safety of Concurrent Boston Type I Keratoprosthesis and Glaucoma Drainage Device Implantation.

Compared with KPro alone, GDD placement combined with KPro was not associated with increased postoperative complications.

Chemical Burns of the Eye: The Role of Retinal Injury and New Therapeutic Possibilities.

A new regimen, in addition to standard treatment, for severe chemical burns is proposed.

Comparison of Endothelial Keratoplasty Techniques in Patients With Prior Glaucoma Surgery: A Case-Matched Study.

In complex eyes with prior glaucoma surgery, DMEK offers faster visual recovery, better final visual acuity, and a lower rate of secondary graft failure compared to DSEK during the first postoperative year and beyond.

Complications of Cosmetic Artificial Iris Implantation and Post Explantation Outcomes.

Cosmetic iris implantation was associated with serious complications at the time of presentation, and adverse sequelae persisted for years after explantation.

Twelve-Month Clinical and Histopathological Performance of a Novel Synthetic Cornea Device in Rabbit Model.

Clinical evaluations, imaging, and histopathological findings indicate favorable outcomes of this synthetic corneal device in a rabbit model. Early feasibility studies in humans are being planned.

Descemet Stripping Endothelial Keratoplasty in Patients With a Custom Foldable Silicone Artificial Iris: Safety and Efficacy Outcomes.

DSEK is an effective procedure for addressing corneal edema in eyes with a CAI, but a majority develop elevated IOP and graft survival is shorter than in eyes without a CAI.

Long-Term Outcomes of the Boston Type I Keratoprosthesis in the Management of Corneal Limbal Stem Cell Deficiency.

Boston type I keratoprosthesis implantation results in a significant improvement in CDVA in the majority of eyes with LSCD through 5 years after surgery, with better visual outcomes than eyes without LSCD.

Corneal Endothelium in Patients with Anterior Uveitis.

Observed relationships suggest that anterior segment inflammation adversely affects the corneal endothelium. Longitudinal studies are warranted to determine whether long-standing anterior uveitis increases risk of endothelial dysfunction, especially in the setting of intraocular surgery.

Boston Type 1 Keratoprosthesis versus Repeat Donor Keratoplasty for Corneal Graft Failure: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

These results demonstrate favorable outcomes of KPro surgery for donor corneal graft failure with a greater likelihood of maintaining visual improvement without higher risk of postoperative glaucoma compared with repeat donor PK.

International Outcomes of the Boston Type I Keratoprosthesis in Stevens-Johnson Syndrome.

The Boston type I keratoprosthesis is an effective means to restore vision in individuals with SJS.
