Published: May 2022

Introduction: Glaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness worldwide. Glaucoma will affect 79.6 million individuals by 2020, according to projections. Improved glaucoma screening and treatment approaches are urgently needed. The purpose of this study is to determine the clinical characteristics of glaucoma patients who visit Bharatpur Eye Hospital and aims to calculate the number of new diagnoses of glaucoma from 01 February 2020 to 15 March 2020.
Materials and methods: This is a hospital-based, cross-section study. All patients with a diagnosis of glaucoma were invited to participate. The examination findings, diagnosis, and management were all documented. A standardized questionnaire was used to collect patient knowledge and understanding of glaucoma.
Results: Among 127 patients 52.8% were newly diagnosed with glaucoma. Many patients (59.8%) were symptomatic for more than 6 months. The mean presenting intraocular pressure was 20.86 mm Hg with an SD of 11.55 mm Hg. Only 44.9% of the participants had heard about glaucoma. Many participants (65.4%) did not have knowledge of glaucoma. Among 127 participants 9.4% had a family history of glaucoma.
Conclusion: Glaucoma is a significant burden that presents challenges to ophthalmic services in Chitwan. Many people have a poor understanding of their condition and have limited access to services. There is a need to build a treatment infrastructure and raise public awareness.

Published: May 2022

Introduction: The eye hospitals of low-income countries including Nepal are not equipped with imaging modalities including CT scan, UBM and Pentacam but most of them have ophthalmic ultrasound. We evaluate the utility of routine ultrasound for proper localization and confirmation of the intra-lenticular foreign body along with detection of the status of the posterior capsule using immersion technique.
Case: Four consecutive cases with intra-lenticular foreign bodies presenting to the vitreo-retina department of Lumbini Eye Institute were included in the study. Ultrasound immersion technique was used to detect the ILFB along with x-ray. Planned ILFB removal with phacoemulsification or lens aspiration and foldable IOL implantation as a single-stage procedure was done in all the patients. They were followed up to 3 months after the surgery.
Observations: Intra-lenticular location of IOFB was confirmed by ultrasound immersion technique in all 4 eyes. Intactness of the posterior capsule was also detected preoperatively in all 4 eyes. ILFBs were removed with Utrata’s capsulorrhexis forcep in all cases following capsulorrhexis. Phacoemulsification was performed to remove cataract in 2 cases whereas lens aspiration with Simcoe canula was performed in other two cases. Single piece acrylic foldable intraocular lens was implanted in all cases. Posterior capsule was intact in all 4 cases intra-operatively. Features of siderosis were observed in one case. Mild postoperative uveitis was seen in all cases and was controlled with topical steroids. Best corrected visual acuity at the last examination was 6/9 or better in all cases.
Conclusions: Ultrasound immersion technique is very useful tool in management of intra-lenticular foreign body at least in low resource setting. Phacoemulsification /lens aspiration with ILFB removal and IOL implantation provides good visual outcome in these eyes.

Authors: Mansoori Tarannum , Srirampur Arjun , Agraharam Satish Gooty 
Published: May 2022

Introduction: Mycotic scleral abscess after pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) is a rare entity and a scleral abscess caused by Aspergillus flavus following PPV has not been reported in the literature. We describe the clinical presentation, complication and management outcome in a patient, who developed a mycotic scleral abscess at the infusion port site after 20 gauge pars plana vitrectomy.
Case: Two weeks after pars plana vitrectomy, a patient presented with a scleral abscess at the site of infusion port. He was a known diabetic, had a history of pulmonary tuberculosis and was using steroid eye drop at the time of presentation. Surgical debridement of the abscess was performed and he was treated with topical and systemic antifungal drugs. After three days of incubation, Sabouraud dextrose agar identified growth of Aspergillus flavus. After showing initial resolution, at 4 weeks follow up, the scleral abscess was noted to have progressed to involve the adjacent cornea. Corneoscleral patch graft was performed and treatment with topical and systemic antifungal was continued, which led to complete resolution of the corneoscleral abscess with corneal opacity and scar formation, over a period of eight weeks.
Conclusion: Scleral abscess is a rare complication after pars plana vitrectomy and requires early and appropriate treatment to decrease the ocular morbidity. Dissemination of the infection to involve the cornea can be managed with corneo scleral patch graft and appropriate antifungal medications to salvage the eye.
Causes and Managements of Early-Onset Ocular Hypertension Following Pars Plana Vitrectomy with Silicone Oil for Retinal Detachment and Exploration of Trabeculectomy as a Viable Alternative Management: A Pilot Study
Authors: Khatri Anadi , Singh Kinsuk , Wagle Bivek , K.C Hony , Karki Pratap , Mermoud André 
Published: May 2022

Introduction: This study aims to study a relatively unexplored topic about the causes and managements of early-onset ocular hypertension (OHTN) following the pars plana vitrectomy with silicone oil (PPV with SO) procedure for retinal detachment. Additionally, to explore the outcome of trabeculectomy in managing such patients.
Materials and methods: This is a retrospective exploratory pilot study. We studied 23 patients who underwent the procedure then subsequently developed ocular hypertension within a month of the procedure. The probable causes for their early-onset ocular hypertension were identified and addressed with medicine, peripheral iridotomy (PI), complete or partial silicone removal. Trabeculoplasty was done in irretractable causes. This study aimed to evaluate the causes of early onset ocular hypertension after pars plana vitrectomy with silicone oil and explore the outcome of different managements including trabeculectomy.
Results: Inflammation (n=11, 47.8%) was the most common cause of early-onset ocular hypertension. Other causes were overfilling/spilling of silicone oil in anterior chamber (n=5, 21.7%), pupillary block (n=4, 17.4%) and angle-recession glaucoma (n=2, 8.69%). Majority of the cases responded to intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering medications (n=11). Three eyes with persistently high intraocular pressure underwent trabeculectomy after which the intraocular pressure was controlled.
Conclusion: Even though prior studies have reported that trabeculectomy does not address late-onset ocular hypertension, our study shows that the procedure might be helpful in early-onset ocular hypertension. This is probably because at the time of presentation for early-onset ocular hypertension, silicone has not emulsified, which will not be the case in late-onset ocular hypertension. If a large study also shows that trabeculectomy can correct early-onset ocular hypertension, this information can guide the practices of ophthalmologists whose patients cannot afford expensive glaucoma drainage devices.
Corneal Perforation Secondary to Rosacea Keratitis Managed with Excellent Visual Outcome
Authors: Gurnani Bharat , Christy Josephine , Narayana Shivananda , Kaur Kirandeep , Moutappa Fredrick 
Published: May 2022

Introduction: Ocular Rosacea is a poly etiological chronic inflammatory disease with heterogeneous clinical manifestations. It is primarily a dermatologic disease, which often manifests in the eyes affecting eyelids, conjunctiva, and cornea. The leading role in the pathological process belongs to the disruption of regulatory mechanisms in the vascular, immune, and nervous systems. The varied manifestation can be erythematous pustular lesions on the face, chronic blepharitis, meibomian gland dysfunction, evaporative dry eye, peripheral corneal ulceration, corneal scarring, perforation, and neovascularization.

Case: We describe a rare case report of a 43-year-old male with progressive ocular manifestations of rosacea keratitis. Slit-lamp biomicroscopic examination revealed squamous blepharitis, telangiectatic vessels with obliterated meibomian glands, circumcorneal congestion, peripheral corneal perforation of 2x2 mm at 4 0 clock, shallow anterior chamber(AC) with positive seidel’s in the left eye. Fundoscopy showed serous choroidal detachment(CD). Snellen’s Best Corrected Visual Acuity(BCVA) was 20/240 with Intraocular pressure measured was 5 mmhg. The patient was managed with topical loteprednol, moxifloxacin, carboxymethylcellulose medications along with cyanoacrylate glue and bandage contact lens and had excellent visual acuity of 20/20 with a follow-up of 1 year.
Conclusion: Ocular rosacea perforation has been reported in chronic cases and may not always require amniotic membrane transplant, patch grafting, or keratoplasty. If managed meticulously with cyanoacrylate glue and BCL can have excellent outcomes. Eye specialists should be alerted that the key to a successful outcome is excellent control of inflammatory activity and differentiating this non-infectious keratitis from other keratitis before commencing treatment.
Panspermia versus Abiogenesis: A Clash of Cultures
Authors: Wickramasinghe Chandra 
Published: May 2022

We are too often led to believe that strident denunciations of an unorthodox position in science are always based upon rational argument and irrefutable fact. This is clearly not so in many instances, one of which relates to panspermia and the dispersal of life throughout the universe. We are led to believe that from the beginning of the enlightenment in Europe in the 17th and 18th centuries CE, science has moved forward with an abandonment of all forms of irrational prejudice. Whilst we are aware that socio-cultural factors control large areas of science, particularly in regard to allocation of public funds, we often forget to assess the consequent societal damage. This is true particularly in relation to the biggest questions of science such as the origin of life and the origin of the Universe. In the interests of science, it is important to recognise the role of such influences in the assessment of competing theories, particularly those relating to the origin of life.
Adversarial Collaboration on a Drake-S Equation for the Survival Question
Authors: Laythe Brian , Houran James 
Published: May 2022

The idea of ‘life after death’ transcends philosophy or religion, as science can test predictions from claims by both its advocates and skeptics. This study therefore featured two researchers with opposite views, who jointly gathered hundreds of research studies to evaluate the maximum average percentage effect that seemingly supports (i.e., anomalous effects) or refutes (i.e., known confounds) the survival hypothesis. The mathematical analysis found that known confounds did not account for 39% of survival-related phenomena that appear to attest directly to human consciousness continuing in some form after bodily death. Thus, we concluded that popular skeptical explanations are presently insufficient to explain a sizable portion of the purported evidence in favor of survival. People with documented experiences under conditions that overcome the known confounds thus arguably meet the legal requirements for expert witness testimony. The equation that led to our verdict can also purposefully guide future research, which one day might finally resolve this enduring question scientifically.

Counterpoint to Walach's Review of The Real Anthony Fauci. Bill Gates, Big Pharma, and the Global War on Democracy and Public Health by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.
Authors: Bobrow Robert

At age 77, I can remember polio. I was terrified of it. Everybody was. A child in perfectly good health suddenly got a fever and the next morning was paralyzed for life. Everyone knew someone who had it. Then a vaccine came out, and this was a Wonderful Thing. Parents eagerly lined up their children to receive it (or a placebo in the earliest phases of its development), and nobody questioned this, as polio was obviously worse than the vaccine could ever be. Republican or Democrat, you did not want to get polio: There were no politics involved. There was also no Facebook.
Enter COVID. Suddenly 450 beds of my 650-bed hospital contained COVID patients, all of them good and sick. Corpses accumulated faster than they could be disposed of. Local nursing homes saw a majority of their residents die. People were terrified. The country shut down. When a vaccine finally arrived, you would think everyone would rush to get it, and many did. But then a strange and probably unprecedented thing happened: politics supervened. Why not wanting to die should be informed by your political affiliation is still beyond me. By September 2021, 56% of Republicans were fully or partially vaccinated, as opposed to 92% of Democrats [1]. During October/November 2021, an unvaccinated person was 78 times more likely to die of COVID than a fully vaccinated one [2].
There have been nine deaths attributable to COVID vaccine [3] — all from the Johnson & Johnson product and at the time of this writing, 900,000 deaths from COVID in the United States. Polio vaccine, when the live virus, oral product (Sabin vaccine) was used for the convenience of not having to give a shot, caused five to ten cases of polio/year. For many years this was considered acceptable, compared to the millions of cases prevented. But as American society became more risk-averse, the original Salk vaccine, which did not use live virus but had to be injected, was brought back. Politics, by the way, was not involved in this change. The point is, sometimes vaccines have adverse effects, but are worth it. A child paralyzed by polio, a grandparent dying of COVID—who would not avoid this if they could?
Against this backdrop, the Editor-in-Chief asked me to examine the review, by Harald Walach of the book The Real Anthony Fauci, Bill Gates, Big Pharma, and the Global War on Democracy and Public Health by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. I am a conventionally-practicing, university-based family physician.

The Nelambo Suon plant is an antimalarial medicinal plant belonging to the Rubiaceae family. This plant is commonly used as a traditional medicine by the Yali Tribe, Sabelebi Village, Heriapini District, Yahukimo Regency, Papua. This plant is typical of Papua which grows wild in hilly habitats and on the edge of cliffs in tropical rain climates. The purpose of this study was to determine the benefits of the traditional antimalarial medicinal plant of the Suon based on ethnopharmaceutical studies and to determine the content of secondary metabolite chemical compounds through the bark extract of Suon Nelambo. The method used to determine the benefits of plants in ethnopharmaceuticals is interviews method. While the test for the content of chemical compounds of secondary metabolites used the phytochemical screening method according to Farnsworth. The results showed that the Suon plant has long been used for generations by the Yali tribe in Sabelebi Village as a traditional antimalarial medicine. The part of the plant organ used is the bark of the stem, which is young or still soft and not too hard. How to use it is by boiling, and the boiled water is drunk in the morning and evening for a period of 3-5 days. The results of phytochemical screening showed that the bark extract of Suon contains a group of secondary metabolite chemical compounds, such as alkaloids, flavonoids, steroids, triterpenoids, saponins, tannins and quinones. The results of this study are one of the new discoveries of medicinal plants that can be used as antimalarial drugs in Papua.Â Key words: ethnopharmacy; phytochemical screening; Nelambo Suon; Yahukimo.

Authors: Ramandey Euniche R.P.F. , Warikar Evie L. 
Published: May 2022

Papua has a high diversity of butterflies, especially in mainland areas. Most of the data on the diversity and distribution of Papilionoidea, such as the example of Papilio ulysses in the mainland of Papua, are well known. Butterfly research in Papua is mostly aimed at species richness and abundance. Based on the results of specimen collection at the Papua Insect Collection Laboratory (KSP) Br Henk van Mastrigt FMIPA UNCEN, it can be seen that there are differences in morphological characters between P. ulysses in several areas in Papua, especially in the highlands and lowlands. The purpose of this study was to analyze the phenotypic plasticity pattern of P. ulysses stored in the KSP Laboratory. This research method is descriptive quantitative. The research sample consisted of 58 specimens with perfect wing shapes. The specimens were collected from Jayapura, Sarmi, Mamberamo, Timika, Pegunungan Bintang, Waropen and Biak-Supiori. The samples were documented using a digital camera and observed for wing variations using the Adobe Photoshop CS5 and Image J free program. Based on the observations, it shows that there are significant differences in the shape and size of P. ulysses that are found on the mainland and on islands. The morphology of butterflies originating from large areas is bigger than those of butterflies on islands. This butterfly plasticity process is a form of morphological adaptation to the surrounding environment.Â Â Key words: plasticity; P. ulysses; butterfly; Papua.
