Entropion, a common malposition of the eyelid, can lead to trichiasis and corneal damage. This article presents a clinical case in which, following initial surgery to correct entropion, the use of a dermatological punch was chosen to definitively eliminate persistent trichiasis. This relatively unknown yet effective approach proved to be a quick and straightforward alternative with positive outcomes, emphasizing the importance of considering innovative approaches to recurrent challenges in clinical practice.

BACKGROUND: Ocular metastasis of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is rare, and mainly located on the choroid. We report a choroidal metastasis from RCC, which was recorded by a smartphone with an interface eyepiece adapter mounted on a slit lamp.
METHODS: A 45-year-old female presented with 1-month history of painless occlusion of the vision field on the left eye, who had undergone right nephrectomy for RCC 19 months ago.
METHODS: A smooth, hemispherical and brown protrusion was found behind the pupil nasally. An enhanced computed tomography scan of the orbit showed a slightly high-density hemispherical nodule involving the nasal portions of the left eyeball, the enhancement of the lesion was obvious and homogeneous. A metastatic choroidal space-occupying lesion from RCC was highly suspected according to the clinical and radiological findings.
METHODS: The patient was advised to undergo further treatment, such as radiotherapy.
RESULTS: The images of choroid metastasis were recorded by the smartphone with the interface eyepiece adapter mounted on the slit lamp handily.
CONCLUSIONS: The smartphone with an interface eyepiece adapter mounted on the slit lamp can be widely used to record the precious images in the clinic in a timely manner.

Purpose. To report a case of malignant glaucoma in a pseudophakic female patient, with no history of glaucoma, resolved through pars plana anterior vitrectomy. Case presentation. An 80-year-old female patient presented in our Emergency Department after a five-day history of pain in her left eye (LE). In the last day, the patient noticed marked visual loss and ocular pain. Visual acuity was light perception and Goldman tonometry was 80 mmHg in her LE. The biomicroscopy revealed absent peripheral and central anterior chamber (AC) and posterior chamber (PC) pseudophakia. Posterior segment ecography showed no vitreous or choroidal abnormalities. A peripheral laser YAG iridotomy was made and the patient was treated with intravenous 20% mannitol, topical timolol, topical brimonidine, and topical cycloplegics. 12 hours later, despite a patent iridotomy in the LE eye, intraocular pressure (IOP) was 55 mmHg, absent AC with severe corneal edema. The diagnosis of pseudophakic malignant glaucoma was made and laser YAG capsulotomy was performed with no resolution of symptoms and signs. 24 hours later, we performed pars plana anterior vitrectomy. Postoperatively, the AC depth increased and the IOP decreased to 20mmHg. After a week, the patient was discharged with hand movement perception visual acuity in her LE, 20 mmHg IOP, reduced corneal edema, normal depth AC. After a month, the corneal edema resolved, the visual acuity was 2/50, IOP was 20mmHg, and the AC had a normal depth. Conclusion. Malignant glaucoma is a sight threatening condition, reported in pseudophakic eyes. Although, literature describes cases solved by cycloplegics and laser YAG capsulotomy, our patient needed pars plana anterior vitrectomy for the resolution of symptoms and signs.

A case is presented of a retained Descemet\'s membrane after penetrating keratoplasty, highlighting the importance of the anterior segment optical coherence tomography (OCT) in the diagnosis and treatment planning of keratoplasty complications. A review of literature is also presented. An 88 year-old man underwent penetrating keratoplasty for bullous keratopathy. A retained host Descemet\'s membrane was detected. The retained membrane went unnoticed until the visual acuity decreased. The ophthalmological examination showed the presence of an opalescent membrane located below the endothelium, and was identified as the Descemet membrane of the receptor. Nd:YAG laser membranotomy was performed after the diagnosis. To conclude, it is noted that the inadvertent retention of the host Descemet membrane is a rare complication in penetrating keratoplasty. The anterior segment OCT was used to determine the diagnosis, and Nd:YAG laser membranotomy is an indicated treatment in these cases.

A 1-year-old, female spayed, domestic shorthair cat presented for blepharospasm of the right eye. Slit-lamp biomicroscopic examination showed focal corneal ulceration and presumptive keratomalacia of the right eye. Examination of the left eye was normal apart from a focal endothelial opacity. Within the first 24 h of medical management, the right eye developed marked corneal edema and globular anterior protrusion of the corneal surface consistent with feline acute corneal hydrops (FACH). Surgical management consisted of a bridge conjunctival graft, nictitating membrane flap, and temporary tarsorrhaphy. Resolution of corneal edema and pain occurred in the right eye within 24 days. Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) of the anterior segment was performed in both eyes. Conjunctival tissue from the bridge graft precluded examination of deeper corneal structures in the right eye. The left eye displayed a focal separation of the corneal endothelium and Descemet\'s membrane from the overlying stroma. These SD-OCT findings are similar to the analogous syndrome found in humans and represent a potential etiology for FACH of the right eye in the case presented here. Unfortunately, the cat was lost to follow-up and the progression of this lesion to FACH in the left eye could not be determined.

BACKGROUND: Although transscleral-fixated intraocular lens (IOL) implantation has been the most frequently chosen treatment for patients with inadequate capsule support, the ghost pupillary capture phenomenon did not cause enough attention.
METHODS: We present an unusual case withintermittent pupillary capture of intraocular lens.
METHODS: After 5 minutes staying in the dark environment, the pentacam examination revealed a mild nasal pupillary capture of the IOL.
METHODS: A clear observation using the slit-lamp was attempted, and the light shining on the pupil sped up the sliding of the captured IOL.
RESULTS: The captured portion of the IOL recovered rapidly accompanied with pupil retraction when the patient was exposed in the light.
CONCLUSIONS: Pupillary capture of an IOL is an uncommon but potentially serious postoperative complication of transscleral fixation. Many pupillary capture cases may have been overlooked in the past. Physicians should be aware of its potential side effect, recognize its clinical manifestation, and knowledgeable of effective management.
