The effects of ab-interno XEN gel implantation on postural IOP elevations
The study involved 18 patients with XEN gel implants, 30 patients who had trabeculectomy, and 30 medically managed glaucoma patients. All patients in XEN gel implant and trabeculectomy groups had at least 11 months of follow-up following successful surgery resulting...
Paediatric uveitis in India
This article was a retrospective review of paediatric patients presenting to a tertiary hospital in India. Records over a three year period were reviewed. The authors highlight that children account for about 2.2-13.8% of uveitis patients and are at greater...
Risk factors identified for glaucoma progression in paediatric glaucoma suspects
A retrospective case review was conducted of children (<18 years) identified as being glaucoma suspects using common clinical criteria or the Childhood Glaucoma Research Network definition. Exclusion criteria included penetrating ocular trauma, treated ocular hypertension / glaucoma and use of...
Intravitreal dexamethasone implant for diabetic macular oedema
The authors report on the three-year outcomes of the Ozurdex Dexamethasone (DEX) intravitreal implant multi-centre trial for the treatment of diabetic macular oedema (DME). Patients with DME (best-corrected vision of 20/50 to 20/200 and central retinal thickness of ≥300µm) were...
Topography-guided photorefractive keratectomy in the treatment of corneal scarring
This study reports the outcome of topography-guided photorefractive keratectomy (TG-PRK) in the treatment of patients with corneal scarring. A retrospective case series including six eyes of six patients with corneal scarring and irregular astigmatism who underwent topography guided PRK. The...
Surgical outcomes for intermittent exotropia of the same angle
The authors evaluated the long-term surgical outcomes and associated factors in patients with the same preoperative angle of deviation in intermittent exotropia after undergoing the same amount of bilateral rectus muscle recession. This was a retrospective review of 102 patients...
Surgical treatment for monocular elevation deficit
Type 1 monocular elevation deficiency is a restrictive form identified by positive results on forced duction testing in elevation, normal elevation forced generation test, elevation of saccadic velocity and absence of poor Bell’s phenomenon. The authors aimed to evaluate the...
Using fusion measures to guide strabismus surgery
In this study the authors targeted patients with non-accommodative decompensating distance esotropia with investigation of prior binocular single vision. Choice of target angle was based on the individual’s fusional amplitudes. The target angle aimed to be less than the distance...
Management of large hypertropia due to lost inferior rectus
This case report outlines the management strategy for a 37-year-old male who suffered a penetrating left orbital injury with rupture of the inferior rectus muscle, optic nerve avulsion and vertical deviation of about 90PD. On orbit exploration, the inferior rectus...
Surgical outcome for cyclic strabismus
The aim of this study was to report the outcome of surgical treatment in a series of seven cases of paediatric cyclic strabismus. This was a retrospective study of children with surgical treatment for the manifest cyclic deviation. Six children...
Correlation of parent observations vs. clinical measures of exotropia
The purpose of this study was to compare the parental observations with the clinical evaluation findings in paediatric patients with intermittent exotropia and to determine the clinical factors associated with the parental observations. The study included 100 parents of 95...
