Bilateral angle-closure glaucoma associated with uveal effusion: presenting sign of HIV infection.

A 40-year-old homosexual man presented with acute myopia and bilateral angle-closure glaucoma. Recognition of an anterior chamber configuration of a modestly shallowed central chamber with marked peripheral shallowing clinically suggested uveal effusion. B-scan echography provided definitive, confirmatory evidence of diffuse choroidal thickening with ciliochoroidal effusion. Treatment with aqueous suppressants, cycloplegics, and topical steroids resulted in complete resolution of the angle closure and reversal of induced myopia. The patient, who was systemically well without signs of AIDS or AIDS-related complex, was later tested and found to be serologically-positive for the human immunodeficiency virus.

Full-arch rehabilitation utilizing pressed ceramic veneers and full-coverage crowns.

A variety of all-ceramic systems has been developed to address the limitations exhibited by conventional porcelain-fused-to-metal restorations. The fabrication principles used for pressed ceramic materials requires the application of a vacuum pressure, which results in a restoration with enhanced optical and physical properties. Due to the strength and versatility of these restorations, the indications for the use of pressed all-ceramic restorations continues to expand. This article describes the application of pressed ceramic restorations for comprehensive rehabilitation of the maxillary arch.
