Pseudophakic macular edema occurs commonly after phacoemulsification cataract surgery, even in the absence of complications and risk factors. This large retrospective study using structured EMR data quantified the RRs of PME and the risk with increasing ETDRS severity of DR. It highlights the need for prophylactic therapy, especially in those groups of eyes with the highest RRs.

Gagne's instructional events can produce an effective and comprehensive lesson plan for teaching procedural skills, preparing learners with various preferred learning styles to perform psychomotor skills competently in clinical practice. This lesson plan can be of use for both teachers and students across clinical specialties, encouragingly outlining how Gagne's systematic and widely referenced theory can be creatively and practically used.

Tardive dystonia is a potential side effect of antipsychotic medications and certain other dopamine antagonists. It is characterized by sustained muscle contractions that lead to abnormal postures and movements. It is generally a permanent side effect that has a significant impact on a patient's physical, psychological, and social well-being, decreasing overall quality of life. The authors present the case of a patient with severe tardive dystonia due to metoclopramide that illustrates the profound physical, psychological, and social impact of this condition. It is important for clinicians to be knowledgeable about tardive dystonia so that they can take active steps to prevent its development and have a positive impact on its prognosis when it does develop by recognizing the condition early. Treatment of tardive dystonia should follow a biopsychosocial approach that combines an array of treatment modalities, depending on the individual presentation. Incorporating a quality of life questionnaire specific to dystonia into clinical practice can help clinicians tailor care to the needs of the individual patient.

We report an unusual case of a missed intraocular foreign body, which was incidentally discovered in the anterior chamber drainage angle of the left eye of a retired masonry worker, some 30 years after the inciting injury. The ocular penetration and intraocular foreign body were missed during initial emergency management, despite the high-velocity mechanism of chiselling granite, which was reported. This case effectively highlights the need for a careful history and examination in high-velocity injuries to the eye (such as those caused by hammering and grinding), a high index of suspicion for intraocular foreign bodies, and considers best practice in managing such presentations.
