A 6-year-old systemically healthy child presented with visual acuity of 1/60, N18 oculusdextrus (OD), and 6/18, N6 oculus sinister (OS). Slit-lamp biomicroscopy revealed suspicious bilateral inferotemporal pigmented ciliary body (CB) tumour, protruding posterior capsule and temporal posterior subcapsular cataract oculus uterque. Anterior segment optical coherence tomography, ultrasonography, ultrasonic biomicroscopy and Scheimpflug imaging revealed protruding posterior capsule and cortex abutting but not arising from CB suggestive of peripheral pigmented posterior lenticonus with hypermetropia (axial length 20.27 mm OD and 19.97 mm OS). Aberrometry revealed high internal aberrations and low Dysfunctional Lens Index (DLI). Lens aspiration with intraocular lens implantation in the bag OD and contact lens correction OS were undertaken. The child had a postoperative visual gain of 3/60, N18 with improved aberrometric profile OD, and was advised amblyopia therapy. Rarely posterior lenticonus can mimic a CB mass. Multi-modal ocular imaging can aid in its diagnosis and management. DLI may serve as a useful indicator of surgery in such cases.

Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible visual impairment, and primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) affects Asians disproportionately. Whereas advances in ocular imaging have identified several anatomical risk factors, our ability to predict PACG still requires considerable improvement. The iris plays a crucial role in the pathophysiology of angle closure disease, either through a mechanical or vascular mechanism. Irises of closed-angle eyes inhibit vastly different structural constituents as compared with those of open-angle eyes, thereby effecting variations in biomechanical properties and iris fluid conductivity. The clinical consequences include a smaller change in iris volume on pupil dilation in closed-angle eyes, thereby bringing the iris and trabecular meshwork closer in apposition. In this review, we summarise the potential role of the iris in the pathogenesis of angle closure disease.

I maging of the eye is an integral part of ophthalmic examination, and is essential for the diagnosis, assessment of severity and progression, and evaluation of management of ocular disease. Advances in imaging technology are progressing at a rapid pace. In an expert interview Parag A Majmudar discussed a number of aspects of optical imaging including the role of optical coherence tomography (OCT) in corneal and refractive surgery, optimal imaging of the eye during toric intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, and the role of aberrometry during anterior segment imaging.

AbstractWhitehouse adapts insights from evolutionary anthropology to interpret extreme self-sacrifice through the concept of identity fusion. The model neglects the role of normative systems in shaping behaviors, especially in relation to violent extremism. In peaceful groups, increasing fusion will actually decrease extremism. Groups collectively appraise threats and opportunities, actively debate action options, and rarely choose violence toward self or others.

AbstractIntuitions guide decision-making, and looking to the evolutionary history of humans illuminates why some behavioral responses are more intuitive than others. Yet a place remains for cognitive processes to second-guess intuitive responses – that is, to be reflective – and individual differences abound in automatic, intuitive processing as well.
