This case report describes a 68-year-old woman with metastatic breast cancer who experienced significant improvement in visual acuity after stopping tamoxifen, which was associated with bilateral optic neuropathies.

This paper presents two cases of rare intraorbital ophthalmic artery aneurysms associated with arteriovenous malformations and discusses their clinical presentation, pathogenesis, and management, but reports no new clinical outcomes.

This report describes the clinical and histopathological features of lipoid proteinosis in a brother and sister with lid lesions, highlighting the importance of recognizing such lesions for diagnosis.

In this case report, the authors suggest an association between prolonged finasteride use and anterior subcapsular cataracts, as observed in a 43-year-old man, marking the first reported instance.

This report documents the second known case of Castleman's disease in the lacrimal gland, diagnosed in an 84-year-old woman through histological examination after excising a left upper lid mass.

This case report details a 65-year-old woman who developed malignant melanoma in her right eye socket following previous eye trauma, treated by orbital exenteration.

This case report indicates that retinoblastoma can occur in a microphthalmic eye and recommends using multiple imaging techniques due to potential differences in calcification visibility.

This study presents two cases correlating the clinical appearance of adult-onset foveomacular vitelliform dystrophy with optical coherence tomography findings, describing the location of the yellow vitelliform material.

This study describes three new cases of MCOPS6 with BMP4 variants, noting expanded phenotypic variability but no clinically apparent microphthalmia in these individuals, which is commonly reported in the disorder.

Acne is significantly influenced by genetics, and understanding its genetic basis could lead to better, targeted treatments.

This study identifies mutations in the SRD5A3 gene as a cause of a new type of congenital disorder of glycosylation, impacting mental, ophthalmologic, and cerebellar functions.

This report discusses the various causes and clinical assessment of madarosis, emphasizing the importance of recognizing and diagnosing associated vision or life-threatening conditions, without presenting new findings.

This guide provides a comprehensive approach to diagnosing periocular hair disorders, which can range from benign conditions to those posing serious health risks.

This study found that the loss of Msx2 in knockout mice led to phenotypes similar to Peters anomaly and microphthalmia, suggesting that MSX2 plays a critical role in anterior segment development of the eye.

This review discusses the clinical manifestations and genetic basis of pigmentary mosaicism, highlighting its varied phenotypic expressions, but reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that numerical chromosomal aberrations were more common in men with severe male factor infertility and azoospermia compared to those with other sperm quality issues, while chromosomal translocations were significantly associated with oligoasthenozoospermia, highlighting important genetic counseling considerations.

This review examines the genetics of acne vulgaris, concluding that stem/progenitor cell maintenance and cellular migration are key processes in its pathogenesis, potentially shifting future treatment strategies beyond traditional antibiotics and retinoids, which have notable side effects.

This review discusses pili torti, a rare hair shaft disorder, and reports no new clinical results; it emphasizes the need to investigate underlying conditions in affected individuals.

This review article explores the potential systemic nature of alopecia areata, highlighting the association with ocular abnormalities and suggesting that shared pathogenic pathways may lead to eye symptoms occurring at younger ages than usual.

In this study, exosomes derived from Iris germanica L. rhizomes (Iris-exosomes) were reported to alleviate oxidative stress and improve mitochondrial function in human follicle dermal papilla cells by activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, suggesting potential benefits for hair loss treatment.

In this study, Iris germanica L. rhizome-derived exosomes were found to reduce oxidative stress, enhance antioxidant enzyme transcription, and restore cellular function in human epidermal keratinocytes, suggesting potential protective effects against oxidative-stress-induced skin damage.

In this study using a rabbit model, higher incidences of intraoperative floppy iris syndrome were observed in animals given the α-blocker tamsulosin, suggesting a potential association with increased iris billowing during eye surgery.

This review discusses risk factors for intraoperative floppy iris syndrome, emphasizing tamsulosin and other α1 blockers, and underscores the importance of preoperative screening to mitigate surgical complications, but it reports no new results.

This case report suggests that oral finasteride, used for benign prostatic hyperplasia, may be associated with intraoperative floppy-iris syndrome during cataract surgery.

This review describes techniques to manage intraoperative floppy iris syndrome linked to alpha-1 blocker use in cataract surgery, highlighting the need for patient disclosure of medication use but reports no new clinical results.

This case report suggests a possible association between long-term finasteride use for male pattern baldness and the development of cataracts and intraoperative floppy-iris syndrome in a patient.

This article discusses intraoperative floppy iris syndrome during cataract surgery and highlights the importance of awareness and preoperative documentation of its risk factors, emphasizing a multidisciplinary approach to management.

This study found that current use of benzodiazepines, α1-blockers (like tamsulosin, alfuzosin, terazosin), finasteride, and possibly rivastigmine is associated with increased risk of intraoperative floppy iris syndrome in cataract surgery patients.

This review discusses the challenges of managing intraoperative floppy iris syndrome during cataract surgery and highlights the importance of preoperative risk assessment and multidisciplinary collaboration, reporting no new clinical results.
