Purpose: We report use of cyanoacrylate (N-butyl-Cyanoacrylate) in previously failed retinal reattachment surgeries for chorio-retinal colobomas. We report the surgical technique, its challenges, and long-term outcomes in three patients who underwent the surgery.
Methods: A chart review of patients with chorio-retinal colobomas and retinal detachment repair with cyanoacrylate at a tertiary eye care center in Nepal.

Purpose: Anti vascular endothelial growth factor (anti VEGF) has been the mainstay of treatment in wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Subsequent decision to continue anti VEGF therapy depends on the treatment response quantified by functional (visual acuity) and morphological (optical coherence tomography) parameters then categorized from good to poor.
Methods: This study evaluates the agreement between OCT angiography (OCTA) and non-OCTA (logMAR VA plus OCT) to decide anti-VEGF treatment's continuity.

Introduction: Penetrating keratoplasty has become one of the most commonly performed transplant procedures where full thickness diseased host corneal tissue is replaced with healthy donor corneal tissue. Aims of penetrating keratoplasty include improvement in visual acuity, removal of infectious load, alleviate pain or even to simply save the anatomy of the eye. Visual improvement and removal of infection is the prime objective of majority of corneal grafts.

Purpose: To report post typhoid fever neuroretinitis with Serous Retinal Detachment and choroidal involvement.
Observation: Patients with diminished vision post typhoid fever can present with neuroretinitis with serous retinal detachment.
Conclusion And Importance: With help from noninvasive imaging such as optical coherence tomography angiography(OCTA) and Deep Range Imaging(DRI), we were able to conclude choroidal involvement - which has not been discussed in literatures yet.

Orbital compartment syndrome is a rare presentation of orbital trauma and is an ophthalmic emergency. Delay in clinical diagnosis and subsequent surgical intervention will lead to loss of vision in nick of time. We presented a case series of orbital compartment syndrome secondary to trauma who presented to the emergency department of Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital during the devastating earthquake in April 2015.
