The purpose of the study was to report an unusual case of recurrent pseudophakic cystoid macular edema (PCME) in an eye with three simultaneous intraocular lenses (IOLs) inside. A 57-year-old female with diabetes mellitus (DM) and a history of complicated cataract surgery was diagnosed with cystoid macular edema (CME). Upon examination, an anterior chamber intraocular lens (ACIOL) with vitreous strand in her right eye was noted. The fluorescence angiography revealed CME of the right eye and microaneurysms in both eyes. Pars plana vitrectomy was performed to release the vitreous prolapse and traction around the ACIOL. During the surgery, two sunken posterior chamber IOLs in the vitreous were incidentally found and removed. The vitreous traction strand around the inappropriately placed anterior chamber ACIOL was also released. It was rarely reported that two dislocated IOL and ACIOL simultaneously existed in the same eye. Chronic recurrent PCME in this patient was possibly associated with posteriorly dislocated IOL, DM, and vitreous traction.

Introduction: This study aimed to assess visual and refractive outcomes and cost utility of toric intraocular lens (IOLs) implantation in cataract patients over 80 with corneal astigmatism.
Methods: Patients >= 80 years with corneal astigmatism >= 1.50 diopters (D) who underwent cataract surgery with toric or monofocal IOLs were enrolled.

Mitochondria play a crucial role in energy production and are intimately associated with ocular function. Mitochondrial dysfunction can trigger oxidative stress and inflammation, adversely affecting key ocular structures such as the lacrimal gland, lens, retina, and trabecular meshwork. This dysfunction may compromise the barrier properties of the trabecular meshwork, impeding aqueous humour outflow, elevating intraocular pressure, and resulting in optic nerve damage and primary open-angle glaucoma.

Topic: To compare the outcomes of surgical approaches to correct ametropia following cataract and lens surgery.
Clinical Relevance: Despite advancements in the field of biometry and intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation formulas, complete elimination of refractive surprises following cataract and lens surgery is impossible. Preferred Practice Patterns acknowledges the possibility of refractive surprise following cataract surgery; however, no recommendations regarding the preferred treatment have been given.

Objective: Aim: To evaluate the possibility of using cataract phacoemulsification with simultaneous intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in patients with age-related cataract (ARC) combined with pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PES) as an algorithm for the pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (PEG) prevention..
Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: A retrospective case-control study was conducted using data from medical records of 610 outpatients (813 eyes) with ARC aged from 49 to 79 years (average age 69 ± 3 years).
