Phakic iris clip lenses and endothelial cell loss
This retrospective observational study included long-term results on endothelial cell losses in highly myopic eyes, which underwent phakic iris-clip lens implantations. Included in the analysis were 113 eyes with mean preoperative spherical equivalent (SEQ) of -14.67 +/- 5.15 Diopters (D)....
Case report of Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON)
This case report presents a 74-year-old male patient who developed LHON, with a previous diagnosis of bilateral macular holes. LHON occurs predominantly in healthy young men and onset in older age ranges increases the likelihood that the patient will have...
Health-related quality of life after cataract surgery
This prospective study evaluates the impact of cataract surgery on subjects’ health-related quality of life (HRQoL) measured with a 15-dimension generic instrument, the 15D. The HRQoL of cataract subjects was compared with that of an age- and gender-standardised sample of...
RCT of IOL type
The optical performance of pseudophakic eyes were compared after implantation of spherical and aspheric IOLs in paediatric patients after cataract surgery. This randomised controlled trial included 40 eyes of 23 patients: 20 eyes in each group. Follow-up was over three...
Treatment of infantile cataract with secondary IOLs
The authors examined whether secondary IOL insertion is helpful in the successful treatment of monocular infantile cataracts. Eleven children were reviewed: eight with cataract extraction at one to four months of age and three at five to seven months of...
Risk factors for NTG in a young Korean population
Previously known ocular and systemic risk factors for normal tension glaucoma (NTG) include myopia, peripapillary atrophy, disc haemorrhage, migraine, obstructive sleep apnoea, thyroid disease and cerebral infarction. However, most NTG risk factor studies have examined patients aged 40 years and...
Changes in C:D ratio of premature infants with enlarged C:D ratios
This retrospective observational study examined the longitudinal alterations in cup to disc ratio (CDR) among premature infants exhibiting enlarged CDR and normal intraocular pressure (IOP) up to two years. Among the 283 infants, 13.4% manifested an enlarged CDR. In this...
Sleep positions and the effect on IOP
The authors describe a study to determine if sleeping at a 20 degree head up position decreases nocturnal IOP compared with lying supine in patients with and without glaucoma. They recruited 30 patients (60 eyes) 15 with glaucoma and 15...
Comparison of five IOL formula for paediatric eyes
There is no consensus on the most suitable intraocular lens formulas for paediatric eyes to provide consistent postoperative results. This study compared modern IOL formulas to identify the smallest mean prediction error among them: Hill-RBF 2.0, Barrett Universal II (BUII),...
Long-term outcomes following surgery for traumatic cyclodialysis clefts
This retrospective case series evaluated the long-term visual prognosis and intraocular pressure control following surgical treatment of traumatic cyclodialysis clefts. Cyclodialysis clefts result from the disinsertion of the longitudinal ciliary muscle fibres from the scleral spur and occur as a...
Strabismus in craniosynostosis
This review article provides a comprehensive overview of the cause of craniosynostosis, types of syndromes and with a specific purpose of discussing strabismus related to craniosynostosis. The authors report their review in the following sections: prevalence and types of strabismus...
