Sutural cataract is uncommon crystalline opacities that affect Y-sutures of the fetal lens nucleus, which is usually congenital and hereditary with X-linked transmission. We report the clinical observation of a 26-year-old patient with no significant pathological history, who consults for a decrease in bilateral progressive visual acuity.

Twisty itsy bitsy topological field theory [PDF]
We extend the topological field theory (``itsy bitsy topological field theory"') of our previous work from mod-2 to twisted coefficients. This topological field theory is derived from sutured Floer homology but described purely in terms of surfaces with ...
