Topography-guided customized corneal ablation is well tolerated and effective. Recent attention has been focused on the unique therapeutic benefits of this treatment for highly irregular and ectatic corneas with encouraging results.

Use of dilute brimonidine before LASIK reduces subconjunctival hemorrhage and injection and improves patient comfort after surgery. Flap edge wrinkling requiring refloat may still be a complication with dilute brimonidine.

IgG4-related sclerosing disease is a recently described systemic inflammatory disease that should be considered when evaluating patients with nonspecific orbital inflammation (pseudotumor). Orbital biopsy is necessary to establish a diagnosis and demonstrates lymphoplasmacytic infiltration, fibrosis, obliterative phlebitis of medium and small veins, and variable degrees of eosinophilia. We report the clinical and histopathological findings of 2 patients who developed chronic orbital inflammation as a manifestation of IgG4-related sclerosing disease. The 2 cases illustrate the widely varying clinical characteristics of this elusive disease.
