A comparative evaluation of a new diffractive trifocal and EDOF IOLs
This study aimed to compare the outcomes of two diffractive trifocal intraocular lenses and one extended depth of focus (EDOF) intraocular lens (IOLs). This was a six month, single centred, prospective, randomised, comparative study in which patients who underwent routine...
Is DSAEK or DMEK better for failed penetrating keratoplasty (PKP)?
This retrospective study involved 52 patients with failed penetrating keratoplasty. Twenty-eight eyes underwent Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) and 24 eyes underwent Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK). Data collection included demographic characteristics, number of previous corneal transplants, previous glaucoma...

Vision screening standards for fitness to drive
Most countries require that vision meets a pre-defined standard in order to be legally permitted to drive, but these standards vary widely. The primary method by which vision is assessed to determine suitability for driving is by measuring visual acuity...
EDOF intraocular lens in eyes with preexisting retinal disease
Extended depth of focus (EDOF) intraocular lens (IOL) offers improved near and intermediate vision, aiming to reduce spectacle dependence in cataract patients. This study aims to evaluate the performance of EDOF lenses following cataract surgery in patients with retinal pathology....
Validation of a vision screening service according to AFSOP recommendations
This study evaluated the accuracy of the diagnostic parameters used in the French Association for Paediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus (AFSOP) screening protocol performed by an orthoptist in relation to the reference standard ophthalmology examination. The study also evaluated parent satisfaction...Technology in ophthalmology – a promising future and what we need to know about the regulations
Undoubtedly, ophthalmology is one of the greatest sources of inspiration for technological progress in medicine. Thus far, we have seen remarkable advancements in the technology used by ophthalmologists across all subspecialties. From simplifying common procedures, to treating previously incurable conditions,...Congenital cataract
Congenital cataract is the clouding or opacification of the lens that occurs at birth or weeks after (infantile cataract). They can be unilateral or bilateral and vary in form, size and location, and consequently the visual impact, management course and...Melton optometrist and lecturer shortlisted for RNIB See Differently Award
A Leicestershire woman who is currently writing a book about a visually impaired dragon will be hoping to slay the judges at the RNIB See Differently Awards where she has been nominated in recognition of her role in the development of low vision clinics across the UK over the last 30 years.The flexibility of virtual clinics
Virtual clinics in ophthalmology are typically associated with glaucoma and medical retina, where they are now a well-established part of the landscape. The availability of an ophthalmic electronic patient record (EPR) makes the deployment and management of virtual clinics much...
Genetic analysis of choroideremia families
Choroideremia (CHM) is a rare X linked recessive chorioretinal dystrophy. Symptoms include nyctalopia and progressive peripheral field loss. Female carriers may have mild symptoms. Choroideremia is known to be caused by a mutation in the CHM gene. A multicentre human...
