|
Paediatric Ophthalmology / Strabismus
This study evaluated outcomes in children aged less than eight years with corneal laceration and traumatic cataract who had cataract extraction one to eight weeks after primary corneal wound repair. This was a retrospective study of 47 eyes of 47...
IOL power calculation accuracy in childhood cataract surgery
5 April 2022
| Fiona Rowe (Prof)
|
Paediatric Ophthalmology / Strabismus
Refractive outcomes in eyes after vitrectomy vary as the timing of cataract surgery may influence the outcome when done as staged surgery after vitreoretinal (VR) surgery or at the same time as VR surgery. The authors aimed to determine the...

Cataract surgery, exploratory factor analysis (EFA), patient satisfaction, quality of care, treatment process
This study analyses the factors of perceived quality of care among patients undergoing cataract surgery. A questionnaire was designed to assess the patients’ views about the quality of care using QUOTE (Quality of Care through the Patient’s Eyes), which assessed...

cataract, endophthalmitis, nasolacrimal duct obstruction
This case control study compared the nasolacrimal duct (NLD) patency in a random sample of phacoemulsification cataract surgery patients (control group) versus a consecutive series of patients who developed endophthalmitis post cataract surgery (case group). NLD syringing was performed in...
Corneal biomechanics and refractive outcomes after cataract surgery

Cataract and Refractive
The authors aimed to study a range of corneal properties and correlate them with refractive outcomes after phacoemulsification. Outcomes were reviewed in a fairly small group of 40 patients (including only right eyes) operated by two surgeons using clear corneal...

Cataract and Refractive
A 56-year-old type 2 diabetic with previously treated bilateral diabetic maculopathy develops a cataract requiring surgery in the right eye. He has had grid laser previously, followed intermittently by intravitreal triamcinalone, Avastin and more recently Lucentis in both eyes. His...

Automated refraction, cataract, central corneal thickness, keratometry, ocular biometric parameters
This prospective study looks into the time duration of biomechanical stabilisation post uneventful cataract surgery in a case series of 62 consecutive eyes in patients with no ocular or systemic comorbidity. The patients were followed-up at fixed intervals of one...
Persistent anterior uveitis after cataract surgery

Cataract and Refractive
This retrospective cohort study was completed to help identify potential risk factors for developing persistent anterior uveitis (PAU) following uncomplicated cataract surgery in patients with no prior history of uveitis or autoimmune disease. A total of 3013 eyes (2019 patients)...
Intraocular pressure reduction after cataract surgery

Glaucoma
Several studies have shown the efficacy of cataract surgery in lowering intraocular pressure (IOP), especially in angle closure glaucoma compared to open angle. A total of 156 eyes of 109 patients (without glaucoma or with medically controlled glaucoma) were included....
Secondary glaucoma post paediatric cataract surgery
7 April 2021
| Tasmin Berman
|
Paediatric Ophthalmology / Strabismus
This retrospective observational consecutive case series assessed the incidence and risk factors associated with developing glaucoma after paediatric cataract surgery with primary intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. They reviewed 136 children (199 eyes) who underwent paediatric cataract surgery before the age...
Suture versus sutureless paediatric cataract surgery
1 June 2022
| Fiona Rowe (Prof)
|
Paediatric Ophthalmology / Strabismus
This was a prospective study comparing the outcomes, feasibility and safety of clear corneal cataract surgery with or without sutures in children with paediatric cataract. There were 85 eyes in each group (170 eyes of 110 patients). Each eye was...
RCT of operative routes for congenital cataract surgery
1 February 2017
| Fiona Rowe (Prof)
|
Paediatric Ophthalmology / Strabismus
The authors evaluated the performance of 25G vitrectomy systems in the management of congenital cataract in infants through two routes – anterior (transcorneal) and posterior (pars plana). This was a prospective randomised trial (RCT) of 24 eyes of 12 patients...
