A novel parameter for angle closure
This is a population cross-sectional study of 464 eyes that underwent swept-source optical coherence tomography (SSOCT) imaging in the dark. Eight out of 128 cross-sectional images were selected for analysis. Matlab was used to measure the iridolenticular contact area (ILCA),...
Infliximab in treatment of PVR
In this phase 2 randomly controlled trial, 66 patients with primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment and grade C proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) were randomised in a 1:1 ratio to undergo pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) and silicone oil (SO) injection with or without...
How the thinking machine is transforming the retinal landscape
Regulatory approval of the first two therapeutic substances for the management of geographic atrophy (GA) secondary to age-related macular degeneration has been a major breakthrough. The authors explored the issue surrounding the lack of agreed therapeutic standards and diagnostic tools...
Clinical characteristics and visual outcome of patients with macular pseudohole
This is a retrospective study of consecutive patients with macular pseudohole (MPH) who had vitrectomy and were followed for at least 6 months postoperatively. MPH was diagnosed based on spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings. 76 eyes of 75 patients...Corneal Tissue Addition Keratoplasty
Corza Medical has launched a dedicated CTAK (Corneal Tissue Addition Keratoplasty) instrument set, developed in partnership with CorneaGen, to support surgeons performing this approach to keratoconus treatment. CTAK is an intrastromal lamellar keratoplasty procedure using preserved donor corneal tissue, custom...
Genetic cause for idiopathic foveal hypoplasia
The authors present a small cohort study of 19 patients with idiopathic foveal hypoplasia diagnosed based on optical coherence tomography (OCT) features. Peripheral blood samples from all 19 patients underwent next-generation sequencing and 33 genes known to be involved in...AI breakthrough brings geographic atrophy treatment a step closer
A team led by Dr Konstantinos Balaskas at Moorfields Eye Hospital Reading Centre has developed a fully automated, deep-learning model (algorithm) that can detect and quantify geographic atrophy using standard optical coherence tomography (OCT) scans.Orbital cellulitis - an overview of the diagnosis and management
Periorbital (preseptal) and orbital cellulitis are infections of the subcutaneous tissues of the eye. They are differentiated by the location of the infection. Periorbital cellulitis refers to infection of the eyelid and subcutaneous tissues anterior to the orbital septum, whereas...Mastering clinical skills in ophthalmology
To young junior doctors, and some senior doctors who may not have had much exposure to ophthalmology, the specialty can seem very foreign. Not only are the conditions and examination findings specific to the eyes, but the skill set required...
A standardised strategy for uveitis etiological diagnosis
This was a prospective, non-inferiority, multicentre randomised control trial, which aimed to assess the effectiveness of a standardised approach in the etiological diagnosis of uveitis versus an open strategy, where clinicians could perform any test. The authors developed their standardised...
