Myopexy of the vertical rectus muscles using expanded polytetrafluoroethylene for management of a lost medial rectus muscle.

Strabismus due to a lost rectus muscle is uncommon. Surgical treatment of the condition by means of scleral augmented myopexy of the vertical rectus muscles can reduce the potential for anterior segment ischemia by leaving the vascular supply intact. We report a successful use of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene in this procedure to correct long-term exotropia caused by a lost medial rectus muscle.

Uveitis-glaucoma-hyphema syndrome caused by posterior chamber intraocular lens--a rare complication in pediatric cataract surgery.

We report a case of postoperative uveitis-glaucome-hyphema (UGH) syndrome following pediatric cataract surgery due to posterior chamber intraocular lens (PC-IOL). Slit-lamp examination revealed the optic of PC-IOL migrated into anterior chamber. The PC-IOL explantation was performed and ocular inflammation subsided.
