Timed resolution of subperiosteal empyema
The purpose of this study was to examine the quantitative changes in subperiosteal empyema (SE) size over time and the time to complete radiographic resolution of this. This was a retrospective case review of 15 cases with orbital cellulitis and...
HSCT treatment outcomes for osteopetrosis
The purpose of this study was to objectively analyse changes in the optic canal opening and conductibility of the optic nerve following allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in patients with osteopetrosis. 3D CT imaging was used along with visual...
Management options for microphthalmia with orbital cyst with / without visual potential
The authors present six cases (seven eyes) of congenital microphthalmia and orbital cyst. These cases were newborn mainly with one aged 20 years. There were four females and two males and two of seven eyes had a visual potential of...
MicroRNAs in cataract
In an ageing population cataract formation is one of the leading causes of blindness. Cataracts are caused by a failure to clear accumulating aggregated proteins in the lens. MicroRNAs are small non-coding transcripts which bind to specific mRNAs acting at...
A case series of acquired esotropia in cerebellar disease
Acquired esotropia in cerebellar disease is well described but under-recognised. The pathogenesis of cerebellar esotropia is controversial. It is suggested it may be a result of disruption to central vestibular pathways. This article reports a case series of seven adults...
Rare case reports of benign optic glioma in adults with clinically aggressive nature
Primary optic nerve gliomas are most commonly benign and occurring in childhood. Malignant optic gliomas occur in adulthood and follow an aggressive course usually leading to blindness and death within months. This paper describes the clinical and histopathological features of...
Management of high AC/A esotropia
The purpose of this study was to determine the long-term effect of treating high accommodative convergence to accommodation (AC/A) esotropia with single vision lenses (SVL) compared with the effectiveness of using SVL on patients with basic refractive esotropia and a...Henrietta Alderman receives prestigious Peter Yeo Medal for outstanding leadership and commitment to the AOP

A novel way to diagnose optic neuropathies using Bruch’s membrane opening
Differential diagnosis of optic neuropathies can be challenging but is crucial for the correct management of the underlying disease and prevention of further damage. Bruch’s membrane opening (BMO) was recently discovered as the anatomical border of the optic disc. BMO...
Mapping areas to target location of vision screening services
In this study, the authors analysed data from a community vision screening program to determine the efficiency of vision screening in reaching lower income populations. The study used ArcGIS (Esri) mapping software to develop a visual representation of areas needing...
