Prism adaptation test in acquired non-accommodative esotropia
This study investigated factors related to the increase in prism adapted angle in patients with acquired non-accommodative comitant esotropia (ANAET) who had strabismus surgery based on the results of a short prism adaptation test (PAT) and evaluated their outcomes. Short...
Clinical features of basic acquired nonaccommodative esotropia requiring surgery
Basic acquired nonaccommodative esotropia (BANAET) is a concomitant esotropia occurring after the age of six months without significant refractive error or accommodative element. Esotropia is similar for both near and distance and children have prior binocular single vision. The purpose...
Risk factors for NTG in a young Korean population
Previously known ocular and systemic risk factors for normal tension glaucoma (NTG) include myopia, peripapillary atrophy, disc haemorrhage, migraine, obstructive sleep apnoea, thyroid disease and cerebral infarction. However, most NTG risk factor studies have examined patients aged 40 years and...
Closed-chamber haptic re-externalisation for posteriorly displaced sclerotomy and inadequate haptic tuck in glued posterior chamber intraocular lenses
This technique (online video http://jcrsjournal.org) emphasises the importance of both symmetrical and sufficient anterior placement of sclerotomies to externalise an adequate length of the haptics, which in turn provides good centration and stability of the intra-ocular lens (IOL). The authors...
Two bifocals and a trifocal
The authors compare the optical outcomes of two bifocal intraocular lenses (AcrySof ReSTOR +2.50 Diopter [D] add +3.0D add) with a trifocal lens (AT LISA tri 839MP). The optical qualities of the lenses were quantified by measuring the modulation transfer...
Effects of orbital decompression on duction, cyclotorsion and diplopia
This is a retrospective review of 156 patients (281 eyes / orbits) with Graves Orbitopathy (GO) who had orbital decompression (OD) between 2016 and 2020 from Amsterdam, Netherlands. Data analysis of type of OD, eye position, duction, cyclotorsion and level...
Cataract extraction and microperimetry
In this study, the authors assessed retinal sensitivity before and after cataract extraction, in an effort to understand how lens opacities may affect microperimetry results in glaucoma and macular diseases. Thirty patients awaiting cataract extraction were examined and their lens...Recurrent corneal erosions secondary to isotretinoin use
Isotretinoin (13–cis-retinoic acid) is the first line treatment for moderate to severe nodulocystic or papulopustular acne [1,2]. Although it is a safe medication, it has several adverse side-effects, including ophthalmic manifestations, as shown in Table 1 [3]. These side-effects need...My Top Five: Red flag presentations all resident doctors must know
Ophthalmic emergencies are time-critical situations where delays in recognition or management can lead to permanent vision loss [1]. For resident doctors and medical students, identifying these red flags can be daunting, especially given the complexity of the eye and its...International eyecare charity Orbis and Tom Davies Eyewear take on Africa's biggest road race
Blindness prevention charity Orbis and Tom Davies Eyewear take on Africa’s biggest road race and raise over 80,000. The team braved high altitude and heat to raise vital funds for the charity’s sight-saving work across Ethiopia. On 23rd November, eleven...
Relating metamorphopsia severity and OCT findings in advanced epiretinal membranes
The authors present the findings of a retrospective study to correlate metamorphopsia and ectopic inner foveal layers (EIFL) or ‘central bouquet’ abnormality (CBA) in patients with advanced stages of epiretinal membrane (ERM) following the new OCT‐based grading scheme as described...
