White Limbal Girdle of Vogt: The Chalky Crescent at the Limbus That Is Often Mistaken for Arcus
Which presentation is an indication for optic nerve sheath fenestration?
Progressive visual field loss or declining acuity from papilledema despite maximal medical management of the raised pressure is a core indication for the procedure.

Which complication is reported after photorefractive keratectomy in granular corneal dystrophy?
Affected patients, especially those with the combined granular-lattice pattern, have been reported to develop unusually severe and rapid stromal haze after photorefractive keratectomy and, less so, after LASIK.
Granular Corneal Dystrophy: Breadcrumbs in the Stroma With Clear Windows Between
Why does surveillance continue after an episode of neurotrophic keratitis heals?
