In this 1-Minute Video, Dr. Jay Sridhar manages a subluxed crystalline lens in a child with Marfan syndrome.

Coat's disease is a telangiectatic exudative retinopathy affecting young males. SRF drainage is done for stages 3-4 with or without adjuvant therapies. Traditionally, SRF drainage is done via transcleral route after a conjunctival peritomy. In this video we demonstrate transconjunctival techniques of SRF drainage with a 26G needle by: a) indirect ophthalmoscope guidance and b) method of active infusion. Advantages of transconjunctival SRF drainage are: 1) No chance of retinal incarceration as in cut down techniques of drainage; 2) Avoids shifting of fluid as globe is not moved and drainage is complete; 3) Posterior drainage is possible under direct visualisation; 4) No lens related complications as Anterior chamber maintainer is not used; 5) Minimally invasive as no peritomy is required.

This video presents a novel technique of viscoelastic delamination of centric retrolental fibrovascular plaque in persistent fetal vasculature syndrome. During delamination, the retrolental space was explored and viscoelastic was injected and dispersed to push the plaque posteriorly. With the technique, the plaque was separated entirely with ease and the postoperative examination revealed an almost clear lens.

This paper focuses on corneal and glaucoma outcomes among patients with Peters anomaly.

This week, an artificial intelligence algorithm for ROP gains breakthrough designation, a gene therapy for wet AMD shows promise and novel dexamethasone eye drops effectively treat DME.

Nystagmus is clinically described based on amplitude, frequency, and direction of oscillations. It can be broadly classified as physiologic or pathologic. Except for physiologic nystagmus, all forms should be considered a symptom of a condition rather than a diagnosis in itself.

This retrospective analysis reviewed the short-term risk of retinal detachment among infants requiring treatment for type 1 ROP.

Periorbital dermoid cysts often present in childhood, and are excised via an eyelid crease approach. Late presentations of fronto-temporal dermoids are a challenge due to their size. Removal is often not possible without a visible external scar. The endoscopic browlift approach can be applied to such lesions for a minimally invasive approach. By placing the incisions hidden in the scalp, this approach allows removal of the cyst with an excellent cosmetic and functional outcome.This video demonstrates endoscopic excision of a fronto-temporal dermoid in a young adult.
