Comparison of treatment for hemianopia following stroke
The authors report the screening process and recruitment figures for a randomised controlled trial comparing interventions for post stroke homonymous hemianopia. Interventions included Fresnel prisms, visual search training and standard care (information only). Primary outcome measure was the change in...
Implantation of diffractive trifocal intraocular lens
This study reports on 60 eyes of 120 patients who underwent routine cataract surgery followed by implantation of the trifocal IOL model Lisa tri-839MP. This is a diffractive trifocal preloaded IOL with no interruption at the haptic-optic junction, 360 degrees...
Corneal tattooing as treatment for bullous keratopathy
This retrospective study looked at differences in epithelial smoothing in patients with bullous keratopathy (BK) undergoing either corneal tattooing or anterior stromal puncture (ASP). Both procedures were carried out for symptomatic relief in eyes with poor visual potential. Chinese ink...
Proprioception and ptosis
This is a small prospective study investigating the effect of proprioceptive factors on upper lid height. Eight unilaterally anophthalmic patients with ocular prostheses and normal lid heights had standardised photographic measurements taken of their eyelid and brow positions. Three sets...
A case report of papilloedema caused by unilateral jugular vein thrombosis
In rare cases, unilateral jugular vein thrombosis can lead to increased intracranial pressure and papilloedema, resulting in headaches and visual loss. The authors describe the case of a 45-year-old patient with squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx who developed right...
RCT of IOL type
The optical performance of pseudophakic eyes were compared after implantation of spherical and aspheric IOLs in paediatric patients after cataract surgery. This randomised controlled trial included 40 eyes of 23 patients: 20 eyes in each group. Follow-up was over three...
Hemianopia or visuospatial neglect: differences in information processing
It is widely reported that visuospatial neglect and hemianopia may be superimposed, and disentangling the two conditions can be pose difficulties for clinicians. The authors of this paper explored the differences in implicit information processing which is effective in patients...
Association between colour vision impairment and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)
The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that colour vision impairment is associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Abnormalities of the inner and intermediate retinal structures in patients with ALS have been described using optical coherence tomography...
IXT control vs. binocular summation
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship of BS scores with other current markers used for evaluating the control in preoperative intermittent exotropia (IXT) patients. Data was collected on stereoacuity, angle of deviation, Newcastle control score (NCS),...
N-T asymmetry in tracking eye movements
The current study aimed to quantify and compare the visual tracking responses of two sensory induced strabismic juvenile monkeys during monocular smooth pursuit, ocular following response and optokinetic nystagmus (OKN). Monkey 1 had esotropia and monkey 2 had exotropia. Both...
Conversion factors for fovea on / off detachments
This is a retrospective study of medical records in a single unit over a 14 year period from January 2001 – December 2014, of patients who converted from fovea-on to fovea-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). Ten cases were identified while...
