In the article “Allergen specific exposure associated with high immunoglobulin E and eye rubbing predisposes to progression of keratoconus” published in pages 399-402, issue 5, vol. 65 of Indian Journal of Ophthalmology[1], the section, “Declaration of Patient Consent” having the following information went missing due to technical errors:

”The authors certify that they have obtained all appropriate patient consent forms. In the form the patient (s) has/have given his/her/their consent for his/her/their images and other clinical information to be reported in the journal. The patients understand that their names and initials will not be published and due efforts will be made to conceal their identity, but anonymity cannot be guaranteed.”
