Normal videonystagmography data
The authors report on the smooth pursuit and saccadic eye movement waveforms elicited from normal patients while viewing standardised calibrated targets. Serial trials were performed on each patient to determine test / retest reliability: nine trials producing 117 results by...
Orthoptic Cochrane reviews
The purpose of this study was to explore the Cochrane Eyes and Vision (CEV) library to extract and overview protocols and systematic reviews of relevance to orthoptic practice. A full database search was made of the 2016 library. Twenty-seven systematic...
B-scan ultrasonography
B-scan ultrasonography is commonly employed for the diagnosis and follow-up of ocular trauma. This retrospective study looked at the accuracy and predictive ability of B-scan ultrasonography following open globe repair. Of the 965 patients identified with open globe injuries at...
Diagnosis of amiodarone-associated optic neuropathy
Amiodarone is a widely used anti-arrhythmic drug. Several case reports describe optic neuropathy which has been linked to its use. This case series discusses the diagnosis of amiodarone-associated optic neuropathy (AAON) and its potential impact on cardiac therapy. The authors...
Scheimpflug vs. OCT in measuring corneal thickness
The authors report on the reproducibility and repeatability of corneal thickness measurements using three different Scheimpflug imaging cameras (Pentacam, Sirius and Galilei) and one Fourier-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) system (RTvue-100). The rationale for this study is that corneal thickness...
Reliability of Fluorescein Dye Disappearance Test (FDDT)
The authors look at the role of the FDDT in the evaluation of adults with primary acquired nasolacrimal duct obstruction (PANDO) and its correlation with the age and severity of epiphora. They report the results of a prospective cross-sectional comparative...
Van Herick Plus
This a consecutive cross-sectional study of 95 phakic patients over the age of 40-years-old. By applying a short, vertical slit beam, the inferior angle at the scleral-limbal junction at 6 o’clock position was evaluated, photographed and assessed by a ratio...
Visual field progression after glaucoma drainage device implantation
This retrospective interventional case series assessed changes to visual fields after implantation of a glaucoma drainage device (Baerveldt, Ahmed or Molteno Devices) between 2010 and 2015. A total of 106 eyes from 96 patients were included in the final analysis...
A novel way to diagnose optic neuropathies using Bruch’s membrane opening
Differential diagnosis of optic neuropathies can be challenging but is crucial for the correct management of the underlying disease and prevention of further damage. Bruch’s membrane opening (BMO) was recently discovered as the anatomical border of the optic disc. BMO...
Variability and reliability of Lea grating paddles
The authors aimed to determine interobserver variability and reliability of Lea grating paddles when assessing grating acuity in pre and non-verbal children. This was a prospective study of 31 consecutive patients; 29 pre-verbal <36 months and two with delayed speech...
Surgical correction of lacrimal gland prolapse
This is a systematic review of published literature on the management of lacrimal gland prolapse or ptosis. The authors found 16 publications which contained a description of any surgical correction of a prolapsed lacrimal gland, comprising seven case reports, four...
