Evolution of refractive surgery stays true to the quote of Theodore Roosevelt: “The more you know about the past, the better prepared you are for the future.” Refractive surgery is an evolving field, which thanks modern technologies for refining ideas...
Binocular summation with low contrast
The magnitude of binocular summation was investigated in normal control subjects using four different letter charts of varying type with fixed and variable contrast levels and spatial frequency to determine which tests most readily reveal binocular summation in normal subjects....
Age versus heterophoria and fusional vergence measures
This study aimed to establish the relationship between age, horizontal heterophoria, horizontal vergences, positive / negative fusional vergence and vergence facilities. The study recruited 112 subjects aged 39.8 ±14.97 years (range 18-65) of which 54.5% were female. There were 49...
OCT angiography metrics in children
This prospective study aimed to quantify the vessel density of both the macular and optic nerve and foveal avascular zone (FAZ) values in 92 normal eyes of 92 children (42 boys, 50 girls) aged 13.4 ±2.65 years (seven to 18)....
Normal reference values for the RETeval device
The purpose of this study was to provide normative data of full-field electroretinography (ERG) responses in the paediatric population using the RETeval device in healthy children with normal retinas. This was a prospective study of 38 eyes of 20 patients...
Normative dimensions of the lacrimal gland
This article looks at the normative dimensions of the lacrimal gland in the axial and coronal plane on fat-suppressed T1 weighted contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Previous data on this subject has come from computed tomography (CT). MRI is known...From novice to overnight on-calls: developing an ophthalmology bootcamp to ease the learning curve for new trainees

Choroid changes in amblyopic, fellow and control eyes
In this study the authors aimed to evaluate choroidal changes in the hyperopic anisometropic eyes of children by comparing amblyopic and fellow eyes, and control eyes, using a binarization method – analysis of enhanced depth imaging with OCT (EDI-OCT) using...
