Diclofenac versus Bromfenac after cataract surgery
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly used after cataract surgery to reduce inflammation and cystoid macular oedema (CMO). Diclofenac 0.1% is used three to five times daily for 28 days and Bromfenac 0.09% twice daily for 14 days postoperatively. The...
Microtropia as an amblyopia indicator
This study was undertaken to determine if microtropia with identity (straight eye anisometropia) is a reliable indicator of amblyopia following optical correction. This was a retrospective review of 532 children aged four to five years. After two months of glasses...
OCT-A imaging in Grave’s orbitopathy and orbital decompression
In this case series of 12 patients and 24 orbits, the authors describe the changes in the optic nerve and peripapillary blood vessel density in patients with moderate to severe Grave’s Orbitopathy (GO) undergoing orbital decompression. The patients undergoing orbital...
Customised corneal crosslinking with supplemental oxygen
In this prospective interventional case series, the authors investigate using supplemental oxygen delivery during epithelium-on corneal crosslinking (CXL) with specially designed oxygen delivery goggles. Twenty-seven eyes of 24 patients underwent epi-on CXL with Riboflavin and Ultraviolet-A irradiation. At six months...
Effects of idiopathic intracranial hypertension on the optic nerves
The authors review the latest evidence regarding how the optic nerves are affected by idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH), possible pathophysiology and methods of assessment. IIH is described as a clinical syndrome of raised intracranial pressure of unknown aetiology. A systematic...
How common is optic disc drusen in young patients with NAION?
A retrospective notes review at two tertiary care centres was completed between 2009 and 2019. The inclusion criteria for the study was a diagnosis of nonarteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy (NAION) in at least one eye, aged between 18 and...
Macular measurements for amblyopic eyes
This study aimed to evaluate the macular parameters including foveal avascular zone (FAV) size and vessel density in amblyopia vs fellow eyes. The study included 23 unilateral amblyopia children (9.86 ±3.12 years; 52.2% female) and non-amblyopia control eyes (8.67 ±2.06...
Characteristics of cherry red spot on optical coherence tomography
In this study the authors report optical coherence tomography (OCT) characteristics of cherry red spot from three cases of Tay-Sachs and one case of Niemann Pick diseases to determine associated factors and potential visual implications. This was a retrospective case...
Updated staging of LCHADD retinopathy
The authors present their proposal for an updated staging system for Long-Chain 3-Hydroxyacyl-CoA Dehydrogenase (LCHAD) deficiency retinopathy. This is a rare mitochondrial disease due to deficiency of the long chain fatty acid oxidation pathway. Forty patients who were part of...
