The Outcomes of Bleb Revision Surgery Techniques After Trabeculectomy
Pur po se: To evaluate the techniques and the results of revision surgeries in order to manage bleb failure after trabeculectomy.
Ma te ri al and Met hod: The records of 23 eyes who had undergone bleb revision surgery because of bleb failure after trabeculectomy between
December 2002 and September 2009 were analyzed retrospectively. The mean age of the patients was 53.7±24.5 years. The mean intraocular
pressure (IOP) before revision surgery was 32,4 ± 8,1 mmHg. Seven cases had needling, 7 had bleb revision surgery, 8 had repeat trabeculectomy,
and 1 had scleral suture removal.
Re sults: Sixteen cases were successfully treated, while 2 cases had this success with medication and 7 were unsuccessful with revision
surgeries. The decrease in the IOP values was statistically significant in all visits after the surgeries (p<0.05). Four of 7 needling cases were
successfully treated and 3 were unsuccessful. Four of 7 cases which had undergone bleb revision surgery were successful, whereas 3 were
unsuccessful. Seven of 8 cases which had undergone repeat trabeculectomy were successful and 1 was unsuccessful. One case got the target
IOP with antiglaucomatous medication after scleral suture removal.
Dis cus si on: Despite the high success rates of trabeculectomy performed to decrease IOP which is the main risk factor in glaucoma, it is
possible to get unsuccessful results because of the early or late bleb failure. Several revision surgery techniques were defined to manage these
situations. The success rates of these techniques were not as high as the primary surgeries, but they can maintain structural and functional
improvement. However, large series especially comparing the success rates of surgical techniques are needed. (Turk J Ophthalmol 2012;

Mantle Cell Lymphoma Presenting with Acute Bilateral Ophthalmoplegia
A 72-year-old woman presented with acute onset of double vision, bilateral complete blepharoptosis, and nearly complete ophthalmoplegia. Orbital and brain magnetic resonance imaging were normal. Further investigation revealed bicytopenia with hepatosplenomegaly. Liver biopsy revealed mantle cell lymphoma. Cytology later showed the presence of mantle cells in cerebrospinal fluid analysis. Her ophthalmoplegia improved from her first cycle of systemic and intrathecal chemotherapy. To the best of our knowledge, this is the second case in the literature of mantle cell lymphoma with central nervous system involvement presenting with ophthalmoplegia. This symptom should be considered one of the initial signs of mantle cell lymphoma
Mantle Cell Lymphoma Presenting with Acute Bilateral Ophthalmoplegia
Yetmiş iki yaşındaki kadın hasta akut gelişen çift görme, bilateral blefaroptozis ve tama yakın oftalmopleji ile başvurdu. Orbital ve beyin manyetik rezonans görüntüleme bulguları normaldi. Sonraki araştırmalar hastanın bisitopeni ve hepatosplenomegalisi olduğunu gösterdi. Karaciğer biyopsisi ile mantle hücreli lenfoma olduğu saptandı. Serebrosipinal sıvı analizinde mantle hücrelerin varlığı sitoloji ile gösterildi. Hastanın oftalmoplejisi birinci kür sistemik ve intratekal kemoterapi sonrası düzeldi. Bildiğimiz kadarıyla olgumuz literatürde oftalmopleji ile başvuran santral sinir sistemi tutulumu olan ikinci mantle hücreli lenfoma olgusudur. Bu bulgu mantle hücreli lenfomanın başlangıç bulguları arasında göz önünde bulundurulmalıdır.A 72-year-old woman presented with acute onset of double vision, bilateral complete blepharoptosis, and nearly complete ophthalmoplegia.

Intraocular Pressure and Ocular Biometric Parameters Changes in Migraine
Background The aim of this study was to assess the intraocular pressure and ocular biometric parameters in migraine patients during acute migraine attacks and compare them with painless period and healthy controls using a new optical biometer AL-Scan. Methods In this prospective, case–control study, the axial length, corneal curvature radius, anterior chamber depth, central corneal thickness, and pupil size of 40 migraine patients during acute migraine attacks and painless period and 40 age- and sex-matched healthy subjects were measured using a AL-Scan optical biometer (Nidek Co., Gamagori, Japan). All patients underwent a complete ophthalmic examination before the measurements. IOP and biometer measurements were taken at the same time of day (10:00–12:00) in order to minimize the effects of diurnal variation. Results There was not a statistically significant difference in intraocular pressure between the migraine patients during acute migraine attacks (15.07 mmHg), painless period (14.10 mmHg), and the controls (15,73 ± 0,81). Also, the ocular biometric parameters did not significantly vary during the acute migraine attacks. Conclusions Further studies are needed to evaluate the etiopathologic relationship between intraocular pressure and ocular biometric parameters and acute migraine attack.PubMedWoSScopu
