Optical quality difference between monofocal and multifocal intraocular lenses

It is well known that multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) can generate more than one focus to restore distance and near vision, but patients may experience adverse optical phenomena such as decreased contrast sensitivity and induced glare or halos. The authors...

Stroke-vision symptoms

The purpose of this study was to investigate the frequency and type of visual symptoms following stroke and evaluate what certain factors were associated with the absence of visual symptoms. This was a prospective, multi-centre, observation cohort study with 915...

Reduced angle after BT for postop diplopia test

The authors undertook a retrospective study to evaluate the extent of reduced deviation after Botulinum toxin (BT) when used as a postoperative diplopia test. They evaluated effect in 39 patients: 32 exotropia and seven esotropia. The same BT dose was...

Angle of deviation and psychological impact

This questionnaire-based prospective study using the Psychological Impact Questionnaire was designed to investigate whether the size of the angle of deviation, age, sex, presence of diplopia, visual acuity of the worse eye and direction of deviation are related to psychological...

Canaloplasty after failed trabeculectomy

The authors describe the technique of canaloplasty performed in five patients who had undergone previous trabeculectomy and under maximum tolerated medical therapy or insufficient intraocular pressure (IOP) control.

Long-term outcomes following surgery for traumatic cyclodialysis clefts

This retrospective case series evaluated the long-term visual prognosis and intraocular pressure control following surgical treatment of traumatic cyclodialysis clefts. Cyclodialysis clefts result from the disinsertion of the longitudinal ciliary muscle fibres from the scleral spur and occur as a...

Surgical prediction in infantile ET

The purpose was to evaluate the preoperative factors influencing the efficacy of the surgical procedure of bilateral lateral rectus recessions. Fifty cases with at least one year follow-up were included for retrospective analysis. Mean response to surgery was 2.17±0.80 PD/mm...

Prognosticating ocular adnexal lymphoma

The authors retrospectively analyse 160 patients with primary ocular adnexal lymphoma to determine the accuracy of prognosis based on the Ann Arbor classification and how this compares to the accuracy of prognosis based on retrospectively applying the newer Tumor, Node,...

BV after long-standing exotropia

Pre and postoperative binocular vision (BV) was compared in long-standing large angle exo deviations. The purpose was to determine the BV potential in these cases and particularly for those at risk of postoperative paradoxical diplopia. In this retrospective study patients...

Using a pupillometer to confirm presence of RAPD in post stroke homonymous hemianopia

It has been reported that relative afferent pupillary defects (RAPDs) may be present in patients with occipital lobe lesions. However, a small contralateral RAPD due to a difference in the crossed and uncrossed fibres can be difficult to detect using...
