Purpose: To present a series of two patients affected by Tourette syndrome (TS) and progressive keratoconus. Case series: Two young male patients with keratoconus and TS were referred to our center. In both patients eye rubbing was present and in one patient, an ocular tic was present determining blepharospasm. Progression of keratoconus occurred in both cases and corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) was performed. All treated eyes showed topographic stability with stable refraction and conserved visual acuity, with a follow-up period ranging from 1.5 to 2.5 years. Conclusion: Patients with keratoconus and TS should be observed frequently to document topographical and refractive changes, and in case of progressing disease, CXL should be performed in order to prevent further progression.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Temporal recession in male-pattern baldness is common. The method of marking of temporal point practiced worldwide, described by Walter P. Unger, does not help in marking temporal triangle border in Indian population. We have found aesthetically superior way of marking temporal point and easy method of construction of lower border of temporal triangle. Case Series: The new marking was applied over 126 young male patients from March 2014 to December 2017; they were regularly followed up and results were observed. Conclusion: With the new method of marking, we found that the lower border of temporal triangle can be easily constructed and temporal point can be more aesthetically placed in Indian population.

✓ This report describes 3 young male patients with multiple lumbar spondylolyses in combination with a symptomatic epidural hematoma. The records of all 3 patients were reviewed for clinical details. All patients were successfully treated without surgical intervention. Initial neuroimaging results for all patients revealed epidural hematomas, and follow-up imaging confirmed resolution of the hematomas. The relevant literature is briefly reviewed to examine the rarity of this combination. Spontaneous epidural hematomas may occur in the setting of spondylolysis, and this diagnosis should be considered when imaging reveals an unusual epidural lesion in a young active patient.

A 61-year-old man presented with a 1-month history of reduced vision, redness and pain in the right eye. Examination revealed a bandage contact lens (BCL) in situ with diffuse, pigmented deposits. On removal, the underlying cornea was found to be clear. He had been prescribed the BCL 6 months ago following a deep-seated corneal foreign body removal and was unable to follow-up subsequently.The BCL was sent for microbiological and histopathological evaluation. The culture revealed growth of Cladosporium spp, a dematiaceous fungi. Periodic acid–Schiff staining revealed infiltration of pigmented fungal filaments into the substance of the BCL.While contact lens deposits are a frequent finding, fungal deposits are seldom noted. Irregular follow-up and improper lens maintenance are significant risk factors for the same. Early identification and subsequent removal of the lens is vital to prevent infection of the underlying ocular structures.
