    Current Trends and Techniques in Pneumatic Retinopexy

    Introduction Over the past few decades, the approach to treating primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) has undergone significant changes. Initially, scleral buckle (SB) was the standard method, followed by the occasional use of pneumatic retinopexy (PnR), and more recently, pars plana vitrectomy (PPV). This shift has primarily been driven by technological advancements rather than considerations of post-operative functional outcomes or the effectiveness of retinal reattachment.1 However, there is now a growing interest in ensuring both the integrity of reattachment and the resulting functional outcomes, spurred by the availability of multimodal imaging. The goal is not only to increase the success rate of retinal reattachment but also to optimize the reattachment process for the best possible functional results. One challenge observed with PPV is post-operative retinal displacement, also known as a low-integrity retinal attachment (LIRA)2–4. This displacement occurs due to the

    Scleral Fixated Intraocular Lens Implantation- A Comprehensive Review

    Introduction Ideally a cataract surgery should result in the placement of an intraocular lens (IOL) within the capsular bag. However, this desirable outcome might be averted due to either preexisting zonular deficit or intraoperative posterior capsular tear, resulting in aphakia. This necessitates the need for an alternate means of IOL implantation. The surgeon can exercise the options of an anterior chamber IOL or iris fixated IOL or a scleral fixated IOL. Developments in IOL designs and modifications in implantation techniques have rendered them safe and efficacious. Recent studies have reported no significant differences in the postoperative visual recovery or complications rate between the 3 approaches.1 However, each option should be analyzed not only in accordance with surgeon’s experience but also with patient’s age, local, and systemic comorbidities.2 Scleral fixated IOL (SFIOL) involves sutured/sutureless fixation of the IOL to the sclera. SFIOL’s position closely approximates
