Objective vs. subjective torsion measures
This study aimed to explore the relationship between subjective and objective torsion in normal individuals with no manifest strabismus. The study included 118 eyes of 59 normal people aged >15 years using Heidelberg OCT and the Torsionometer. There were 27...
IOL power calculation accuracy in childhood cataract surgery
Refractive outcomes in eyes after vitrectomy vary as the timing of cataract surgery may influence the outcome when done as staged surgery after vitreoretinal (VR) surgery or at the same time as VR surgery. The authors aimed to determine the...
Pilot trial of virtual reality to treat amblyopia beyond the age of seven years
A pilot double-blind randomised controlled trial is presented. Patients were required to be between seven and 38 years of age, have a diagnosis of anisometropic and / or strabismus unilateral amblyopia, visual acuity in the amblyopic eye between 0.3-1.0 LogMAR...
Hess vs. Harms vs. PCT measurements
This study aimed to compare the results of the different tests in 36 strabismus patients and 18 healthy controls aged 6-81 years. Tests included alternate prism cover test, Hess screen and Harms screen. Because of glasses restrictions with the Harms...
Combination surgical management for congenital lacrimal duct obstruction
The authors aimed to report the clinical outcomes of antegrade balloon dacryocystoplasty (DCP) followed by pushed-type monocanalicular (MC), combined as a primary management for congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction (CNLDO). This was a retrospective study of 62 eyes (48 patients) with...
BESTi: a new index to detect subclinical keratoconus
In this multicentre, case-control study, the authors develop a new index, named Boosted Ectasia Susceptibility Tomography Index (BESTi), to detect early cases of keratoconus. This index was derived from multiple logistic regression analysis of 22 variables of tomography scans. The...
Handheld OCT in children with Down’s syndrome
This article investigated the use of handheld optical coherence tomography (OCT) in children with Down’s syndrome. Fourteen children were recruited to the study with a mean age of 6 years and 10 months with 57% male. All patients were dilated....
Surgically induced astigmatism after cataract surgery
In this study, the authors analysed a dataset of 122 eyes of 122 patients with pre- and postoperative measurements of corneal astigmatism with IOL Master 700. A standardised 2.5mm superior corneal incision was utilised. The corneal power vector component in...
FA findings in treatment-naive premature infants
This retrospective study examined fluorescein angiography (FA) images of 162 eyes of 81 treatment-naive infants with retinal vascular immaturity and persistent avascular retina (PAR) despite exceeding postmenstrual age of 60 weeks. Disc diameter (DD), optic disc-to-fovea distance (FD), the length...
Scleral perforation after strabismus surgery
The aim of this study was to report the incidence, risk factors, treatment and outcomes of scleral perforation as a vision-threatening complication of strabismus surgery. The review included 12 papers: four prospective, two retrospective, two surveys, one review, two animal...
Comparison of nylon versus polyglactin sutures
The purpose of this study was to compare postoperative complications between incision closure by nylon suture and polyglactin suture in paediatric cataract surgery. This was a prospective single-centre non-randomised study of 82 eyes (41 children) with median age of four...
