Abstract
PURPOSE: To evaluate the long-term clinical outcomes in eyes with retained presumed intraocular cotton fibers after cataract surgery. SETTING: Hong Kong Eye Hospital, Hong Kong, The People's Republic of China. METHODS: A retrospective review of 19 eyes with retained presumed intraocular cotton fibers after cataract surgery was performed. Outcome measures were fiber-related complications. In vivo confocal microscopy was performed in eyes with entrapped cotton fibers at the wound site. RESULTS: The duration of retained presumed cotton fibers ranged from 5 to 110 months (mean 42.3 months). No complications were noted in any of these eyes, including endophthalmitis, persistent uveitis, or corneal endothelial cell loss. In vivo confocal microscopy in eyes with entrapped fibers at the wound site showed normal corneal endothelium morphology with no keratocyte activation or inflammatory response. CONCLUSIONS: Retained presumed fibers after cataract operations are more common than anticipated. In contrast to other organic foreign bodies, these retained fibers appear to be well tolerated. Conservative treatment can be adopted for these fibers as these pose minimal toxicity to the eye.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
