has to be accounted for and decisions are taken appropriately. The purpose of this study is to investigate and compare the effects of cyclopentolate and tropicamide drops on anterior segment parameters in healthy individuals. Two hundred and fifty-eight eyes of 129 healthy volunteers were included in this randomized clinical study. Cyclopentolate 1% drop was applied to 75 (58%) participants (group 1) and tropicamide 0.5% drop was applied to 54 (42%) participants (group 2). Flat keratometry (K1), steep keratometry (K2), axial length (AL), central corneal thickness (CCT), anterior chamber depth (ACD), white-to-white (WTW) distance, pupil diameter, total pupil offset and intraocular lens (IOL) power were measured before and after drops, using Lenstar 900 optical biometry. The increase in CCT, ACD, pupil diameter, and pupil offset was significant in group 1 after the drop (P < 0.05), while the increase in ACD, pupil diameter, and pupil offset was significant in group 2 (P < 0.05). When the two groups were compared, there was no significant difference in K1, K2, Casuring anterior segment parameters before mydriatic agents should be taken into account particularly for fourth-generation IOL formulas and phakic IOL implantation. The change in pupil offset, which can be important in excimer laser and multifocal IOL applications, was not clinically significant. The aim of this study was to evaluate the application and safety of three-dimensional (3D) visualization system in varied anterior segment procedures and Scleral Buckle. This was a prospective observational study of 313 eyes. Patients undergoing phacoemulsification (PE) with intraocular lens (IOL), trabeculectomies, glaucoma triple procedure (GTP), scleral fixated (SF) IOL, and scleral buckle (SB) were included in the study. Cases were randomly distributed in 3D visualization system (learning and post-learning phase) and conventional microscope group. Parameters studied were complications (intraoperative and early postoperative), surgical outcomes, and surgeon's perspective on various parameters (through a validated questionnaire) like surgical time, time lag, learning curve, ease of doing various steps and its value as an educational tool, for both groups [Questionnaires 1 and 2]. Complications rates were not different in two groups. Surgical outcomes (anatomical and physiological) were similar in both the groups. Mean duration of surgery in PE+IOL, Trabeculectomy, GTP in learning stage by 3D was significantly higher than Microscope, which became insignificant in postlearning stage. For, SB and SFIOL, duration between two groups were insignificantly different. There was significant learning struggle in PE+IOL, SB, and Trabeculectomy. Image resolution, depth perception, illumination and postural comfort was graded higher for 3D surgery across the stages. Time lag, poor color contrast, and field of view were appreciated during the learning stage. Educational relevance of 3D was higher, as appreciated by resident and nurses. 3D surgery is as safe, faster, and predictable after initial learning struggle. Even in anterior segment procedure, no apparent lag was appreciated after learning curve. 3D surgery is as safe, faster, and predictable after initial learning struggle. Even in anterior segment procedure, no apparent lag was appreciated after learning curve. The purpose of this study is to find incidence of negative dysphotopsia (ND) in eyes undergoing clear corneal phacoemulsification and identify its causes including corneal wound hydration and type of intraocular lens (IOL). In this randomized clinical trial, consenting adult patients undergoing phacoemulsification were randomized to receive a hydrophobic (Alcon Acrysof SN60WF) or a hydrophilic acrylic IOL (CT Asphina 603P, Carl Zeiss Meditec) in a 11 ratio. At time of surgery, eyes were again randomized in 11 fashi
