Quick ViewThe cornea serves as the gateway into the eye for external images. Maintenance of corneal shapes and transparency is critical for refraction. Small changes in the smoothness of the corneal surface or in the total thickness of the cornea can lead to visual distortion. Recently, however, refractive surgery for the transparent cornea has been introduced.…

Quick ViewPatients undergoing bariatric surgery are special subjects, as they present several features that convert them into high-risk patients, despite often being young and without severe comorbidities. Medical staff is often not used to managing these patients and they do not consider that different measures or doses of drugs should be employed. Moreover, several postoperative complications…
