Painting technique for staining the anterior lens capsule.

We describe a technique of capsule staining called capsule painting. Using a Khokhar capsule painting cannula, the dye is spread directly over the anterior capsule but to no other part of the anterior chamber. There is minimal turbulence in the anterior chamber as there is no need to replace the injected viscoelastic material. The use of minimal dye and viscoelastic material reduces the cost of surgery.

Phacoemulsification in a case of microspherophakia.

Phacoemulsification with implantation of an acrylic foldable intraocular lens in a 14-year-old girl with microspherophakia is described. The associated lenticular myopia was disabling in terms of quality of life. With the help of nylon iris hooks, the procedure was uneventful and the outcome successful

Phacoemulsification in filtered chronic angle closure glaucoma eyes.

PURPOSE: To report the results of phacoemulsification in eyes with chronic angle closure glaucoma having a functional filtering bleb. METHODS: A prospective and non-comparative study was undertaken in 60 consecutive eyes of 44 patients having a functional filtering bleb for chronic angle closure glaucoma and undergoing cataract surgery. Only those cases who had intraocular pressure 0.05 using paired t-test). The central anterior chamber depth was statistically significant (P = 0.002) when preoperative (1.90 +/- 1.27 mm) was compared to postoperative at 6 months (2.11 +/- 1.27 mm). CONCLUSION: Phacoemulsification in eyes with a functional filtering bleb for chronic angle closure glaucoma is challenging. However, with slight modifications in technique, it can be accomplished without compromising the functioning of the bleb.

Dislocation of the lens: a complication after cyclocryotherapy.

An unusual complication is reported of a case of complete dislocation of the lens after cyclocryotherapy in a patient with neovascular glaucoma. To the best of the authors' knowledge, no case of lens dislocation following cyclocryotherapy has previously been reported.
