Questionable ERG use for Vigabatrin screening
The authors aimed to identify the usefulness of electroretinograms (ERGs) as screening for retinal toxicity in patients taking Vigabatrin in a single centre study. This was a retrospective review of full field ERGs and included 170 ERGs of 138 patients...
Key research and practical information to inform INS care
This ‘tutorial’ format paper aims to translate key research findings and conclusions into practical terms, discuss their clinical utility and introduce a new clinical method that accurately measures the static visual deficits in infantile nystagmus (INS), predicts the improvements that...
Association of subconjunctival haemorrhage with non-accidental injury
This study assessed the frequency and nature of diagnostic work-ups in infants with subconjunctival haemorrhage (SCH), the incidence of occult injuries among these patients and the factors that may have influenced the work-up. This was a retrospective secondary analysis of...
Outcomes for congenital vs. developmental cataract surgery
This study retrospectively reviewed follow-up data (minimum one year) to evaluate ocular outcomes and the potential factors affecting visual acuity after foldable intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in preschool childhood (up to six years) with bilateral cataract. The study included 43...
OCT findings after strabismus surgery for macular, choroidal and nerve fibre thickness
This study used OCT to investigate the changes in the central macular thickness, subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT) and retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) after horizontal rectus surgery for patients with strabismus. This was a retrospective study and patients were grouped...
The eyes of healthy children effected by virtual schooling
The authors aimed to assess how the increased use of technology during a day of virtual school as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic affected the eyes of healthy children. Children aged 10 to 17 years who attended school virtually...
Significant associations to presence of significant retinal haemorrhages in suspected child abuse
The authors aimed to extract statistically significant associations between non-ocular clinical and diagnostic imaging findings and the presence of significant retinal haemorrhages, and then develop an evidence-based screening algorithm to determine when to consult an ophthalmologist in suspected child abuse...
Effects of ML4 on the eye
Mucolipidosis type IV (ML4) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease and is caused by variants of the MC0LN1 gene. It often presents in young individuals with eye and ocular adnexa issues. The authors present a case report and literature...
OCT prognostic factors in AMD patients with peripapillary choroidal neovascularisation
In this retrospective study the authors aimed to investigate the correlation between optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings and visual acuity outcomes after treatment with intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB) injections for age-related macular degeneration (AMD) patients with peripapillary choroidal neovascularisation (PPCNV). Data...
Incomplete teprotumumab treatment for thyroid eye disease
This is a multi-centre retrospective analysis of clinical outcomes in patients who were on teprotumumab for thyroid eye disease but had the usual regime of eight infusions, three weeks apart, interrupted due to COVID-19. Manufacturing was suspended between Dec 2020...
A review of the risk of nonarteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy post-cataract surgery
A systematic review and meta-analysis are presented with the aim of assessing whether cataract surgery increases the risk of non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy (NAION) and identify potential predictors of risk. The search strategy components are outlined in detail. A...
