PURPOSE: To evaluate the clinical effectiveness of topical diquafosol tetrasodium (DQS) after laser epithelial keratomileusis (LASEK). METHODS: This randomized prospective study included 97 eyes of 49 patients who were scheduled for LASEK. Patients in the DQS group used both 0.3% sodium hyaluronate and 3% DQS for 3 months after surgery while patients in the control group used only 0.3% sodium hyaluronate. Corneal staining score, tear film break-up time (TF-BUT), Schirmer test and ocular surface disease index (OSDI) were evaluated before surgery and 2, 4, 8, 12 and 16 weeks after surgery. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in visual acuity, spherical equivalent and corneal haziness between the 2 groups after surgery. Corneal staining score was significantly lower in the DQS group than in the control group 2 weeks after LASEK (p < 0.01) and increased in the control group after LASEK compared with the preoperative value (2 weeks after LASEK, p < 0.01), but decreased in the DQS group (12 and 16 weeks after LASEK, p < 0.05). TF-BUT was significantly higher in the DQS group than in the control group 2 to 16 weeks after LASEK (p < 0.01) and increased values were observed in the DQS group after LASEK compared with the preoperative value (4 to 16 weeks after LASEK, p < 0.05). The mean OSDI was significantly higher 4 to 16 weeks after LASEK in the control group than in the DQS group (p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Subjective dry eye symptoms and objective markers were worse for 4 weeks after LASEK. The use of 3% DQS for 12 weeks after surgery improved these symptoms and markers with the effect lasting 16 weeks after LASEK.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the clinical features of high myopic eyes with cataracts implanted with negative power intraocular lenses (IOLs) at the time of cataract surgery. METHODS: A retrospective chart review was conducted of 18 eyes of 14 patients who underwent cataract surgery with negative power IOLs and 10 eyes in 9 patients with low power IOLs. We investigated axial length, IOL power, preoperative and postoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and preoperative and postoperative spherical equivalent (SE) refractive errors. RESULTS: Mean BCVA showed significant improvement in both groups. We measured postoperative SE refraction and the difference between the mean intended and the mean achieved SE refractive errors in the negative power group (17 eyes) was +1.59 ± 1.34 D and +0.31 ± 0.50 D in the low power group. CONCLUSIONS: BCVA was significantly improved in the majority of eyes, although they had myopic macular degeneration or posterior staphyloma. However, the mean achieved postoperative SE refraction was more hyperopic than the predicted postoperative SE error. Additionally, hyperopic refractive error was greater in the negative power group than the low power group. Therefore, we recommend that postoperative hyperopic refractive error should be considered when performing cataract surgery in high myopic patients.

PURPOSE: To analyze and compare ultrasound pachymetry (USP) with a more recently adopted device, the intra ocular lens (IOL) master 700, which are both used to measure central corneal thickness. METHODS: The central corneal thickness was measured in 24 eyes of 12 glaucoma patients and in 83 eyes of 42 normal patients. First, the IOL master 700 was used to measure the central corneal thickness, followed by measurements taken using USP later. The results were analyzed using a paired t-test. We analyzed the agreement and the correlations between the two test devices by using Bland-Altman plots and the Pearson correlation test. To evaluate the reproducibility, measurements with the IOL master 700 were taken twice for a few normal patients within a small time interval. RESULTS: Via the IOL master 700, the thickness of the central cornea showed a high reproducibility and repeatability, demonstrating 2.7 ± 1.7 µm for the test-retest variability, 6.78% for the coefficient of variation, and 0.997 for the intraclass correlation value. The mean measurements using USP and the IOL master 700 are 554.4 ± 37.4 µm and 551.1 ± 37.1 µm, respectively, showing that the IOL master 700 measured significantly smaller values than USP with a p-value < 0.001. The deviations between the two methods are scattered throughout the 95% confidence interval. According to the Pearson correlation test, the measured values of the two test devices were found to have a highly positive correlation (r = 0.977, p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated that the central corneal thickness (CCT) measured via the IOL master was significantly thinner than that of USP, and the two test devices had a high correlation and good agreement. The CCT value measured via the IOL master 700 also exhibited high reproducibility.

Three rare tumors of the oral cavity are presented. Lingual chondromas, approximately twenty to thirty cases appear to have been reported since the lesion was first described by Berry in 1892, which are usually seen on the lateral borders in the anterior two thirds of the tongue, while the ventral surface and the posterior third are rarely involved. Chondromas of the tonsil are of very rare occurrence, which are thought to arise as a result of metaplasia, rather than from embryonic rests, with chronic fibrosing inflammation being the inciting factor. Because of its rarity, the following cases of chondroma of the tongue and tonsil are being added to small list of such case reported in the literature.

Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors of the ovary are rare, accounting for no more than 0.5% of all ovarian neoplasms. These tumors occur predominantly in women 10 to 30 years of age. Heterologous elements are found in over 20% of the moderately and poorly differentiated Sertoli- Leydig cell tumors. The most common element is gastrointestinal mucin-secreting epithelium, found in approximately 20% of all cases. Approximately 4% of Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors contain immature skeletal muscle and/or cartilaginous elements. The origin of these neoplasms is regarded as neometaplasia of the mesodermal neoplastic element. While the degree of differentiation of Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors is probably of greater importance in determining prognosis than the presence of heterologous components, recent evidence does point to an unfavorable effect on clinical outcome when heterologous mesenchymal components such as cartilage and striated muscle are present. We experienced two cases of ovarian heterologous Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors with gastrointestinal type epithelium and striated skeletal muscle in 20 and 21 year-old females, respectively. One case involved a patient who had complained of amenorrhea for 3 years while the other case involved a patient who had complained of left lower abdominal tenderness and amenorrhea for one and one half years. It was determined by ultrasonography of the pelvis that the two patients suffered from right and left ovarian masses. Both patients underwent adnexectomy. These tumors were large with partly solid and partly cystic areas. Based on light microscopic examination one case was classified as an intermediate Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor with heterologous gastrointestinal type epithelium, while the other case was classified as a poorly differentiated Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor with heterologous striated skeletal muscle.
