Anything new in the control of myopia progression?
This is a review article looking at up to date concepts and evidence in myopia control from current literature and studies. The authors identified that myopia control is best measured in absolute change in axial length as opposed to refraction...
Understanding retinal ciliopathy through Bardet-Biedl syndrome
This is a review article looking at up-to-date understanding and ongoing research in retinal ciliopathies. Syndromic ciliopathies consist of a group of disorders caused by ciliary dysfunction or abnormal ciliogenesis. These disorders have multiorgan involvement in addition to retinal degeneration...
A to Z of X-linked retinopathies
This review article provides an excellent summary of X-linked retinopathies and the corresponding genotype and clinical features. The authors provide a comprehensive overview of each condition in terms of its pathogenesis, clinical features, imaging findings, electrophysiology changes and any current...
Bacterial keratitis through the window of the known unknowns
This review article provides an up-to-date summary of current challenges in research and management of bacterial keratitis. The authors highlight that there is no current agreement on the criteria that should define bacterial keratitis; the role of investigation is unclear,...
Use of polypropylene suture with glaucoma drainage tubes
The authors overview surgical techniques for initial non-valved glaucoma drainage device tube placement and a glaucoma drainage device tube extension using polypropylene suture as a guide wire and stabiliser in paediatric patients. The detailed technique for tube placement and tube...
Detecting glaucoma with only OCT
In this review article, the authors describe a probability model based upon only OCT to detect glaucoma. They explain how normal anatomical variation can lead to false positives and applying a model to account for this improves specificity. The application...
Superior oblique sagittalisation
This paper reports two cases with anomalous posterior course of the superior oblique tendon with insertion nasal to the superior rectus tendon. Both presented with Brown syndrome-like clinical scenarios. The cases were a five-year-old female and four-year-old male. Diagnosis was...
Incidence and clinical characteristics of paediatric keratitis
This is a retrospective, population-based study of a 10-year period from Mayo Clinic, USA between January 2000 and December 2009 of patients <19 years diagnosed with keratitis. Two-hundred and eight-five children were identified. An incidence of 78 per 100,000 and...
All you need to know about PIC
This is a review article of punctate inner chorioretinopathy (PIC). The authors detail the epidemiology and clinic presentation of the disease. They recognise the challenge of an accurate diagnosis due to its resemblance to other posterior uveitic entities. Multimodal imaging...
Spot diagnosis? The white dot syndromes
This review article provides an up-to-date summary of white spot syndromes. The authors explain that the white spot syndromes form a group of inflammatory retinal disorders with distinct lesion distribution and progression patterns. Multimodal imaging has revealed unique phenotypes, enhancing...
Under pressure: the constant drive to improve IOP monitoring
The authors offer a comprehensive overview of interplay between glaucoma and intraocular pressure (IOP), IOP measurement principles and historical measurement techniques and progress in IOP measurement devices. The authors explore the issues surrounding current thinking in IOP measurement and its...
