Designing ophthalmology services Part 2: How do we address the queues for a clinic?

The first of this three-part series showed how systems engineering can be used to correctly diagnose and address the causes of delays in a clinic. This second article describes how to design a more productive system that meets the new...

Aspiration of anteriorly migrated dexamethasone implant using an 18G intravenous cannula

Intravitreal dexamethasone (Ozurdex 0.7mg) is a biodegradable, sustained-release implant used to manage diabetic macular oedema, macular oedema secondary to retinal vein occlusion, and non-infectious posterior uveitis due to its anti-inflammatory effects and VEGF suppression [1]. While effective, the implant may...

Code-Free Deep Learning: a step into the future of ophthalmology

A new focus has arisen within the research domain of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare called code-free deep learning (CFDL), and recent research demonstrates that ophthalmology is becoming one of the leading specialties in this field. Artificial intelligence (AI) is...

Customised orbital implants

This is a literature review of the outcomes of orbital fracture repairs using custom-made orbital implants. Customised implants were manufactured in one of three ways, all using a 3D printer; manual moulding of an implant based on a 3D-printed model...

Biomaterials and Regenerative Medicines in Ophthalmology (Second Edition)

With advancement in science and technology in the last decade, the role of biomaterials and regenerative medicines has become increasingly important in the management of various ocular disorders. This book highlights the role of biomaterials in the restoration of vision...

Effect of postoperative swelling on lid surgery outcomes

This is a review of patients undergoing upper lid external levator resection ptosis surgery or blepharoplasty, to assess whether the degree of early postoperative swelling affects the final lid position. Twenty-five patients undergoing ptosis surgery and 29 upper lid blepharoplasty...

Microvasculature changes of mCNV after ranibizumab treatment using OCTA

In this study the authors aim to evaluate the vascular changes of myopic choroidal neovascularisation (mCNV) after ranibizumab treatment using optical coherence tomography-angiography (OCTA). The 3×3 OCTA en face images were analysed for the absence / presence of mCNV, CNV...
