Introduction: The modern ophthalmology trends are changing rapidly every day with the introduction of much newer studies and research. Numerous anti-vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGF) are utilized as the mainstay in the treatment of intraocular vascular pathologies. The rationale of this study is to add to the literature regarding the safety and efficacy profile of the ziv-aflibercept as there is insubstantial data in patients with intraocular vascular pathologies being treated with this injection with prime focus on the complications of the injection. Materials and Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted at Opthalmology Department, Lahore General Hospital, Lahore between 14 August 2018 and 23 December 2019. Patients with choroidal and retinal vascular diseases like diabetic macular edema (DME), age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and retinal vein occlusion (RVO) who had no active infection of eye and had no history of myocardial infarction or cerebrovascular accident were added in this study. Results: Best-corrected visual acuity was significantly improved at 4, 8, and 12 weeks as compared to the baseline (p Conclusion: The use of ziv-aflibercept injection via intravitreal route under aseptic conditions for choroidal and retinal vascular diseases is effective as well as safe with mild and treatable ocular side effects.

The Pakistan Academy of Sciences(PAS) was inaugurated on 16 th February 1953 by the then Prime Minister of Pakistan, Khawaja Nazim-ud-din. The Academy is a non-governmental and non-political supreme body of distinguished scientists, to which the Government has entrusted the consultative and advisory status. The affairs of the Academy are regulated by its Charter and the ByeLaws approved by its Fellows who are elected through the prescribed procedure. Since its establishment, the Academy has elected 162 scientists belonging to all branches of science as its Fellows during a period of 58 years(i.e., 1953-2010) at an average of 2.8 Fellows per year. However, no Fellows were elected for 10 years(i.e., 1955, 1960, 1962, 1963, 1965, 1969, 1975, 1981, 1985 and 1987) and, therefore, the average induction-rate works out to be about 3.5 Fellows per year during a period of 48 years. A comparison of the number of Fellows elected per decade during 50 years(i.e.,1961-2010) in physical and bio-sciences is provided and depicted graphically, showing the variation trend regarding the specialized fields of the elected Fellows for the studied five decades.
