OCTA to measure surgical haemodynamic changes
This study used the optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) technique to evaluate possible haemodynamic changes after horizontal rectus muscle surgery in 32 eyes of 16 patients; nine male, seven female. Recession / resection surgery was undertaken for two horizontal rectus...

Comparison of degradation of stereoacuity with reduced visual input
The aim of this study was to investigate the differing extents to which stereo thresholds obtained with Frisby, TNO, Lang Stereopad and ASTEROID stereo tests are affected by changes in visual input in adults. Bangerter foils (0.2 and 0.4) were...A three-way partnership between Nigeria, Tanzania and Northern Ireland
VISION 2020 LINKS between Western Health and Social Care Trust (WHSCT), Altnagelvin Area Hospital, Northern Ireland with first ECWA Eye Hospital, Kano, Nigeria and now also with Mbeya Referral Hospital (MRH), Tanzania, have been beneficial to all three partners. From...Real world data of post-IVT endophthalmitis, from a nurse-delivered intravitreal injection service
Introduction Intravitreal injection of neutralising anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) antibody was licenced more than a decade ago, and over the years there has been proportionate increase in the number of intravitreal injections [1]. Injection of a therapeutic agent through...BCLA Presidential Address highlights the opportunities for growth in contact lens sector

Prognosis of ocular motor cranial nerve palsies caused by pituitary adenoma and meningioma
The authors present a retrospective cohort study with the aim of comparing recovery rate and time of ocular motor cranial nerve palsies (CNP) caused by pituitary adenoma or meningioma. Cases were identified from a single tertiary referral centre over a...
Using a fenestration technique for partially accommodative esotropia
The authors evaluate a fenestration technique which is described as a modified sutureless hang-back recession, for cases of partially accommodative esotropia, in a prospective non-controlled cohort. Children under 10-years-old with full accommodative correction and a partially accommodative esotropia between 10...A closer look at the new wave of glaucoma surgery – radical or old school?
Glaucoma is a challenging condition to treat because the exact pathophysiology remains unclear and the only readily modifiable factor is the intraocular pressure (IOP). Additionally, most glaucoma patients are completely asymptomatic, yet are often subjected to lifelong medical therapy. The...‘Phaco-plus’ procedures at forefront of modern glaucoma management
Glaucoma and cataract increasingly present as a ‘two-in-one’ surgical opportunity. In the UK, new modelling suggests ~1 million adults aged ≥40 may currently have glaucoma, with a projected rise to ~1.6 million by 2060 as the population ages and demographics...
