Tacrolimus for endothelial rejection

This double-blinded randomised controlled trial tested the use of adjuvant topical Tacrolimus drops in cases of acute endothelial rejection in penetrating keratoplasty (PK). Patients with typical signs of endothelial rejection were randomised to receive either steroid therapy with topical Tacrolimus...

Centre for Sight 30 Years of Vision: Crafting the Next Decade

A pattern surgery

The authors describe the efficacy and safety of superior oblique (SO) hang-back recession with A pattern strabismus and SO overaction. A pattern was defined as a difference of >10PD from elevation to depression. SO overaction was graded as +1 to...

IO belly transposition surgery

The authors evaluated inferior oblique (IO) muscle belly transposition to correct mild to moderate IO overaction with small primary position hypertropia. They reviewed 10 patients aged 6-35 years (mean 18.6 years). Aetiologies were mild unilateral superior oblique (SO) palsy for...

Comparison of surgical procedures for third cranial nerve palsy with large-angled exotropia

The authors present a retrospective case review with the aim to compare two surgical procedures. Cases were operated on at a single centre, by a single surgeon, over a 14-year period. The inclusion criteria were cases with congenital or acquired...

Normative database of OCT measurements in children

This study aimed to establish a normative database of optical coherence tomography (OCT) (Cirrus SD-OCT) parameters and to investigate if gender, ethnicity and axial length affect these measures by evaluating the effects of age and spherical equivalent refraction (SER) in...

Combined DIMS and low dose atropine for preclinical/early-stage myopia treatment in children

This retrospective study evaluated efficacy of multi zone positive optical defocus lenses (DIMS) and fog vision and 0.01% atropine for the treatment of children with preclinical and early stages of myopia. Children were included if aged 6–14 years, with spherical...

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...

Myectomy with or without proximal end tucking for inferior oblique overaction

This study aimed to compare the outcomes and impact of inferior oblique muscle myectomy with and without tucking the proximal end of the muscle into Tenons capsule in two surgical groups as a treatment for inferior oblique overaction. Tucking the...

Corneal molecular and cellular biology for refractive surgeon

This is an interesting literature review that looks into the recent advances concerning the corneal molecular and cellular processes that are involved in the wound healing response after excimer laser surface ablation and LASIK surgery. It talks about the complex...

Intraocular lens technology to deliver enhanced optical performance after cataract refractive surgery

Modern cataract surgery aims to provide patients with the best possible visual outcome with the least dependence on spectacles and minimal or no complications and to treat both cataract and refractive errors with a single procedure. Phacoemulsification is the standard...

Is lens constant optimisation for IOLMaster indispensable in order to achieve a good refractive outcome?

A study of refractive outcomes following cataract surgery was carried out with the aim of comparing the postoperative refractive outcomes against Royal College of Ophthalmologists standards and to determine the extent of association between accuracy of intraocular lens (IOL) power...
