Using MRI to assess normal variation in optic chiasm anatomy
The authors present an MRI study including 61 MRI scans using a 1.5 T with slice thickness of 1 or 5mm and the sequence showing the highest resolution of the chiasm. A predetermined set of measurements were taken in a...
Long-term outcomes of recess / resect for sensory XT
The purpose of this study was to evaluate relationships between initial and long-term outcome of unilateral recess / resect surgery in adult sensory exotropia, factors associated with long-term outcome, exotropia drift and time to failure follow-up surgery. This was a...
How to reconstruct an upper lid defect
In this 10-year review, the authors look at published techniques for repairing upper lid defects and their respective success. Of the 10 studies included in this paper, they divide the techniques described within to bridging and non-bridging. Bridging techniques tend...Code-Free Deep Learning: a step into the future of ophthalmology
A new focus has arisen within the research domain of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare called code-free deep learning (CFDL), and recent research demonstrates that ophthalmology is becoming one of the leading specialties in this field. Artificial intelligence (AI) is...
DIGIROP efficacy for detecting treatment-requiring retinopathy of prematurity (TR-ROP)
This article examines the efficacy of using the DIGIROP online prediction model in estimating the risk of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) requiring treatment in two Portuguese hospitals. Portuguese screening criteria for ROP mirrors that of the UK (<32 weeks gestation...Best way to detect glaucoma progression: by reflecting on the past 25 years
Glaucoma – a condition of optic neuropathy leading to progressive visual field loss often associated with raised intraocular pressure. It is fair to say that our definition for this condition has remained unchanged over the last 25 years and the...
Use of botulinum toxin A in the treatment of intermittent exotropia
In this prospective cohort study, the authors aimed to evaluate the efficiency of botulinum toxin A (BTA) injection in the treatment of intermittent exotropia (IXT) and examine factors affecting treatment outcomes. Seventy-four patients diagnosed with any type of IXT were...Childhood glaucoma
When a child is given a diagnosis of glaucoma, the impact upon that child and their family is enormous; equivalent to the diagnosis of a cancer [14]. This previously published article (2019) outlines the knowledge, techniques and approaches that offer...
Gene profiling for a family with Duane’s retraction syndrome
The aim of this study was to describe the clinical and genomic features of a family with special types of Duane’s retraction syndrome (DRS). The mother and son had obvious clinical features. The son displayed features of horizontal gaze palsy...
Mydrin-P microdrops vs mydrin-P standard drops for ROP examination
This was a non-inferiority prospective randomised controlled trial to compare efficacy and safety of microdrops over standard dose mydrin-P in retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) screening, and to determine optimal time for eye examination after administration of drops. The trial included...
