Investigation into the anatomical differences of eyelashes between Caucasian and Indian specimens
This study investigated the anatomy of human eyelashes through analysis of root depth, angle, and spatial relationship. Four eyelids from Caucasian donors were obtained from fresh donors and four eyelids from Indian donors were obtained from eye bank calls. The...My Top Five: Ophthalmology YouTube channels
In the digital age, medical education is being rapidly updated and transformed with the integration of modern technology. Many enthusiastic educators and learners are exploring novel platforms and formats of medical education. Additionally, there has been an increasing need for...The Arclight: A ‘pocket’ ophthalmoscope to revitalise undergraduate teaching?
Ophthalmoscopy should be a core skill for every doctor and should be firmly embedded in the undergraduate curriculum similar to the unquestioned position of the stethoscope. The simplicity of the Arclight means it is easy to useand, importantly, to learn...
Aflibercept for the treatment of neovascular glaucoma
The aim of this study was to investigate initial results regarding the treatment of neovascular glaucoma (NVG) with intravitreal aflibercept. NVG is classified into stages 0-3. In stages 1 and 2, abnormal vessel proliferation is seen with or without elevated...
Mechanism of colour vision involvement in multiple sclerosis
There is evidence to show that the optic nerve and retina are affected in multiple sclerosis (MS) even without any clinical evidence or history of optic neuritis (ON). MS without optic neuritis causes colour-vision deficit, however, the evidence for selective...Improved efficacy expected with second-generation microinvasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) devices
Microinvasive surgical approaches to primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) offer minimally traumatic options for effective intraocular pressure (IOP) reduction in appropriately selected glaucoma patients. Increases in laser trabeculoplasty rates and wider adoption of glaucoma drainage device filtration procedures, together with the...The symbolism of eyes in Halloween traditions and popular culture
Halloween is a festival steeped in symbolism. Pumpkins, skeletons, ghosts and witches dominate the seasonal iconography, each representing broader cultural anxieties about death, darkness and the supernatural. Among these motifs, the eye, often depicted as glowing, disembodied or grotesquely exaggerated,...The future of binocular viewing systems?
I recently had the pleasure to visit Vision Engineering’s headquarters and manufacturing facility in Woking, UK. Vision Engineering have built an international reputation for engineering microscopes that provide 3D visualisation without the use of traditional optical eyepieces. Although the company...Implementing technology to improve global eye health
Technological innovation is providing new solutions to transform global eye health [1–5]. In particular, research towards the development of artificial intelligence (AI) tools in ophthalmology has gained pace in recent years. However, there has been little research relating to its...A new observation point: updating the nomenclature and classification with OCT
The evolution of ophthalmic imaging technologies has been particularly rapid over the last few years. The author provides an update of the current terms for common signs and pathologies observed using optical coherence tomography. My experience as an ophthalmic technician,...Make eye drops a part of your Ramadan routine
Glaucoma UK, the Muslim Council of Britain (MCB), and the British Islamic Medical Association (BIMA) are encouraging Muslims with glaucoma to continue using their medication as prescribed during the holy month to prevent irreversible sight loss.
