Quantum technology first in eye disease detection
Scientists are working on a new device that could lead to a reduction in the number of people who go blind from age-related macular degeneration (AMD).Upper eyelid ulceration as a presenting sign of frontal sinus mucocele
Introduction A sinus mucocele is an epithelium-lined sac filled with mucus and desquamated epithelium. It forms secondary to inflammatory processes that occur in a sinus with an obstructed ostium. Predisposing conditions include previous trauma, surgery, tumours, anatomical abnormalities, and chronic...More sensitive visual acuity test for age-related macular degeneration
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of blindness in the developed world. Primarily associated with ageing, genetic factors and lifestyle choices such as smoking also play a contributory role. Patients with early AMD, characterised by the development of...1/3 UK considering laser eye surgery but majority unaware it's non-reversible and affects night vision
National eye health survey shows a third of UK are considering laser eye surgery but vast majority are unaware it is non-reversible and how it can affect night vision.
Vision screening standards for fitness to drive
Most countries require that vision meets a pre-defined standard in order to be legally permitted to drive, but these standards vary widely. The primary method by which vision is assessed to determine suitability for driving is by measuring visual acuity...Vision Buddy: A sight enhancement wearable to enhance TV and computer viewing
This review of the Vision Buddy system continues our recent series on wearable assistive technology. The main component of the Vision Buddy system is a VR-type headset, designed to assist users with a range of tasks primarily within the home...A patient report of pseudoxanthoma elasticum, angioid streaks and choroidal neovascularisation
Angioid streaks (AS) on their own do not cause many problems, with the majority of patients remaining asymptomatic [1]. However, once choroidal neovascularisation (CNV) occurs, the visual prognosis of the patient rapidly declines [2]. Treatment is imperative to try and...VisionSpring’s screening methodology is adopted by the World Health Organisation to increase global access to reading glasses
By endorsing the training of health workers and nurses to identify blurry near vision and dispense reading glasses, the WHO’s new training program is helping solve this billion person issue.
LR/SR surgery for high myopia strabismus
The authors evaluated the outcomes of a surgical procedure involving the muscle union of the superior rectus and lateral rectus muscles with and without medial rectus recession and the anatomic changes before and after surgery in 35 eyes of 20...
Surgery for myopic strabismus
The outcomes are reported of muscle belly union technique with medial rectus recession for cases with restriction according to the results of intraoperative forced duction testing (FDT). Surgery involved isolation of the lateral and superior recti muscles, which were separated,...
Surgery for myopic esotropia
The authors report a modified Jenson procedure for the treatment of high axial myopic esotropia. Their study includes 15 eyes of 13 patients with a mean age of 50±10.4 years. Mean spherical refraction was -22.53±6.06 dioptres. Mean axial length was...
