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.
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...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...Ocular electrophysiology
A 34-year-old woman, who is a CEO in a multinational firm, has been losing vision over the last 12 months. She has seen her opticians, who initially tried different glasses but could not improve things. Clinical examination is unremarkable. How...
RetCam use in differential diagnosis for retinoblastoma
The authors aimed to evaluate RetCam fundus photography and fluorescein angiography (FA) findings in pseudo retinoblastoma. This was a retrospective review of 36 eyes of 28 patients (of which six were female) with 22 bilateral cases. Mean age at presentation...
Use of oral fluorescein angiography in a paediatric population
The authors report a retrospective records review of all patients who received an oral ultrawide fluorescein angiography (FA) over a 42-month period at a single children’s hospital. Data were extracted from the records including indication for FA, adverse events, pauses...
Management of diabetic macular oedema (DMO)
The authors present guidelines on current diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in the management of DMO. Fluorescein angiography (FA) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) are recommended before starting treatment to help diagnose and stage DMO, and can be repeated if there...
Intravitreal ranibizumab for the treatment of myopic CNV
The authors conducted a prospective study. Sixty-four patients (65 eyes) attended the 12-month follow-up examination. The mean patient age was 47.8 years. Fifty-five patients (86.0%) were females. All patients had pathologic myopia (a spherical equivalent of more than − 6.0...
