Surgical Correction of Superior Sulcus Deformity Occurring After Enucleation

A prefabricated, sculptured, subperiosteal orbital floor implant was used in six cases of cosmetically unacceptable deep superior eyelid sulcus that occurred after enucleation. The implant provided anterior and superior displacement of orbital contents. Surgical placement was similar to the approach for implant placement in orbital floor fracture and provided satisfactory cosmetic and functional results.

Photography with Corneal Contact Fundus Cameras

Conventional fundus cameras, having an air lens between the cornea and front lens of the camera, are usually limited in the area of fundus which can be encompassed to 30 or 35 degrees. Collages are required to show larger areas in single illustrations.

If you desire to make pathological knowledge the groundwork of your credit and usefulness through life, let me advise you not to allow the period of your pupilage to pass by without making a special study of the diseases of the eye. Here you see almost all diseases in miniature; and from the peculiar structure of the eye, you see them as through a glass; and you learn many of the little wonderful details in the nature of morbid processes, which, but for the observation of them in the eye, would not have been known at all. Let every one of you who has a few months to spare give them to the Eye Infirmary. The eye might have been intended to furnish us a little model for studying processes of disease and processes of reparation as they go on in all parts of the body, so admirably does it answer this purpose. William B. Bean, MD: (Aphorisms From Latham, Iowa City: The Prairie Press, 1962, pp 85-86.) In the days when the chautauqua and the weekly newspaper provided contact with the outside world, a fresh and hopeful uplift in an America which was still largely rural was the stereopticon viewer. It enabled anyone to tour the world and see it in three dimensions. It provided magical entertainment and education for those who could not think of actually travel¬ ing about to see the world. Now television brings the worlds troubles and mans inadequa¬ cies into the shrines of our hearth and home. With the development of color photography, the improvement of all kinds of films, and the per¬ fection of cameras which make stereoscopic photography of the retina seem simple, photo¬ graphic study of the retina has now been brought to the stage of perfection. Anyone who wishes to have in his hands a beautiful and wisely selected collection of almost superstereoscopic color views of the fundus may have it in this manual. The book, a sort of compact audio¬ visual epitome, has in the back a folding stereopticon viewer and in the front a file of some 105 different patterns of retinal disease, all the
