LASEK with mitomycin C to correct myopia in thin corneas

This study evaluated the long-term outcomes of laser-assisted subepithelial keratomileusis (LASEK) with intraoperative use of mitomycin C (MMC) performed on thin corneas for the correction of myopia. MMC modulates the corneal wound healing response in surface healing, thus reducing the...

Topography based keratoconus progression after corneal collagen cross-linking

Case 1 describes a 35-year-old man with progressive keratoconus (PK). His best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was right 20/80 (-5.25/-7.75 x 85) and left 20/20 (+4.75/-5.00 x 90). His Ks were right 36.32/48.02 D and 41.15/46.41 D. Right central cornea...

Effect of long-term scleral contact lenses on corneal topography, tear film and impression cytology in keratoconus

This study of 16 keratoconus patients aimed to investigate the impact of long-term scleral contact lens (ScCL) wear on corneal curvature, corneal thickness, tear film function and ocular surface in patients with keratoconus. Corneal topography, tear osmolarity test, Schirmer 1...

A pituitary tumour from 1927

The author shares a clinical case from Edinburgh Royal Infirmary’s archives. It is not often in the course of a clinical career that one gets the opportunity to review a patient who had been treated by a pioneer neurosurgeon some...

Photophobia: an unusual symptom of a pituitary macroadenoma

Introduction Photophobia, defined as ‘an abnormal intolerance to light’, is commonly associated with a range of both ocular and neurological pathologies such as dry eye, blepharospasm, corneal pathologies, cataracts, uveitis, retinal dystrophies, optic neuritis, migraine, meningitis, and traumatic brain injury...

Pituitary tumours: why are they so often missed?

Part 1: Introduction, historical background and Edinburgh connections (see also Part 2 and Part 3) Is there any ophthalmologist who has not missed a pituitary tumour? Hopefully this article will help those currently in practice to avoid such an embarrassment,...

Comparison of visual field indices between normal adults and children

The authors present a prospective observational study which aimed to compare visual field indices with retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) thickness using optical coherence tomography (OCT) in normal adults and children. Children aged 6–18 years were recruited from a single...

Macular characteristics in unilateral idiopathic FTMH and fellow eyes

This retrospective observational study, conducted at a single site, aimed to compare characteristics of the macular structure and foveal pit in unilateral full-thickness macular hole (FTMH) and healthy fellow eyes. Full-thickness macular holes were further classified into three categories: (1)...

Dear friends and supporters, What 12 months it has been for the Andean Medical Mission! Thanks to your encouragement and generosity, we’ve been able to continue our work to eliminate avoidable blindness in the Beni region of Bolivia — and...

Comparison of corneal deformation parameters in keratoconic and normal eyes

This study set out to compare biomechanical properties between normal and keratoconic eyes. It was a retrospective study evaluating 89 eyes (47 normal, 42 keratoconic) and a validation arm of 72 eyes (33 normal, 39 keratoconic) using a high speed...

Results of corneal cross-linking in very steep corneas

Corneal cross-linking (CXL) has been shown to be a safe and valid treatment option for progressive keratoconus and have shown an arrest of progression with a low failure rate of 0% to 2.8% in mild to moderate keratoconus. A Kmax...
