OCTA and pigment epithelium detachments
Yannuzzi et al. report on their study aiming to evaluate the ability of optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) to differentiate vascularised from nonvascularised pigment epithelium detachments (PEDs) using conventional imaging techniques, including fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) and indocyanine green (ICG),...
Dacryocystosclerotherapy as an alternative to dacryocystectomy
In this article, the authors evaluate the role of sclerosing agents in dacryocystosclerotherapy (DCST) and aim to see whether it is an alternative to dacryocystectomy (DCT) in a specific group of patients. Thirteen lacrimal drainage systems of 10 patients with...RCOphth (The Royal College of Ophthalmologists): Back to Basics - Byte sized topics for all
09:00 - 16:40 Join us for an immersive dive into the fascinating world of ophthalmology! Delve deep into the realm of red eyes as we uncover the hidden clues and learn to distinguish the subtle nuances that could signal danger. We'll embark on a journey through the intricate art of managing corneal ulcers, navigating the complexities of uveitis cases, and unravelling the mysteries behind disc swelling.
Comparison of bleb grading and IOPs
The purpose of this study was to compare a novel anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) bleb grading system with a clinical bleb grading system (Moorfields) and both with intraocular pressure (IOP) levels following trabeculectomy surgery. The authors developed a...insitro and UK’s INSIGHT at Moorfields Eye Hospital announce collaboration to expand research efforts in neurodegeneration and related conditions
The world’s largest bioresource of eye images offers window into human health and serves as basis of a new AI foundation model to boost drug discovery. insitro, a machine learning-enabled drug discovery and development company, and the INSIGHT Health Data...
Tetracaine to reduce OCR
This study investigates the effects of Tetracaine eye drops on oculocardiac reflex (OCR) during strabismus surgery. A randomised controlled trial of 70 strabismus surgery patients aged two to 19 years was conducted with comparison of Tetracaine versus placebo. Demographics were...
5-FU in cicatricial conjunctivitis
This is a retrospective review of 56 patients with cicatricial conjunctivitis, including 25 eyes that received sub-conjunctival injections of 25-50mg of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) as part of their treatment. Thirty-seven patients had ocular cicatricial pemphigoid (OCP) and 19 had Stevens-Johnson syndrome...
Multimodal imaging in wet AMD
This novel study set out to determine grader agreement levels of various retinal imaging techniques, commonly used in the diagnosis of wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Images from 52 eyes were by examined by two different observers. All images were...Darren Hargreaves joins Sense Medical as Clinical Solutions Director
Sense Medical Ltd welcomes the new appointment of Darren Hargreaves as Clinical Solutions Director.
Vascular density evaluated by SS-OCTA and microperimetry in RP
The aim of this retrospective, observational cross-sectional one-year study was to evaluate the retinal and choroidal vessel density in the macular area with swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA) in patients of retinitis pigmentosa (RP), to compare this data with...
Density of cataract and its influence on retinal nerve fibre layer thickness
The aim of this study was to further define and model the influence of cataract on spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SDOCT) image quality and retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) thickness measurements. OCT quality is influenced by opacities in the...
