This is a retrospective study of the medical records of children under the age of 16 who underwent secondary lens implantation for aphakic corrections after previous congenital cataract surgery over a period between January 2000 and December 2010. The study...
Online tool for converting finger counting acuity into Snellen equivalent
The authors describe an online tool which has the purpose of converting count finger measurements of visual acuity into Snellen equivalents. The purpose of this is to allow the re-interpretation of retrospectively collected data that provide visual acuity in this...Anisometropia following cataract surgery and its non-surgical treatment

Cataract and Refractive
The desired result of cataract surgery is improved visual acuity without the use of spectacles. In practice most patients following initial cataract extraction are likely to be symptomatic of anisometropia giving rise to prismatic effects (anisophoria) and unequal retinal image...

Paediatric Ophthalmology / Strabismus
The authors evaluate the postoperative outcomes of unilateral medial rectus recession surgery for the treatment of persisting consecutive esotropia >10PD more than six months in 16 patients (three adults and 13 children) who were overcorrected after initial surgery for intermittent...
Newer generation IOL platforms designed for high-quality visual performance after cataract surgery
Expanding intraocular lens (IOL) capabilities provide broadening options, ranging from next-generation monofocal IOLs for basic cataract surgery, to specialised premium IOLs for lens-based presbyopia correction and astigmatism correction at the time of cataract surgery. Rod McNeil considers several newer alternative...Paediatric ptosis
