Intraocular lens technology to deliver enhanced optical performance after cataract refractive surgery
Modern cataract surgery aims to provide patients with the best possible visual outcome with the least dependence on spectacles and minimal or no complications and to treat both cataract and refractive errors with a single procedure. Phacoemulsification is the standard...A trainee’s guide on how to prepare for the digital age of ophthalmology
As the pandemic rolls on, the past year has left many ophthalmic departments in disarray with ever-lengthening patient waiting-lists and increasing challenges in service delivery. Areas such as virtual clinics, telephone / video consultations have had to mature rapidly to...Understanding vasoproliferative retinal tumours
Syed Irtiza Ali Shah explores this rare and unusual condition through a fascinating case presentation. Vasoproliferative tumours of the retina (VPTR) are a vascular mass with an associated exudative retinopathy alongside the presence of minimally dilated feeder vessels. This is...Navigating the retina: the nitty-gritty of slit-lamp fundus examination
The slit-lamp fundus examination can be a difficult and disorientating task for beginners due to the retina being viewed in a non-anatomical orientation, the small area of retina illuminated, and the counterintuitive technique of the examination. This article provides a...Innovative glaucoma surgery first at Newmedica
An innovative glaucoma surgery has been performed at ophthalmology provider Newmedica for the first time. The ELIOS procedure is a type of minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) performed during cataract surgery, which uses a laser device to make the channel....
Predictors of IOP reduction after SLT
The aim of this study was to identify predictors of intraocular pressure reduction following selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma, who are already taking maximally tolerated IOP-lowering medication and need further IOP reduction. In this prospective...
Surgical complications of ReLEx
Femtosecond laser refractive lenticule extraction (ReLEx) is a novel procedure for treatment of myopia and myopic astigmatism, which eliminates the use of microkeratome and excimer laser. Currently there are two techniques: FLEx – femtosecond lenticule extraction (similar to conventional LASIK)...
Outcomes of combined medial and laser treatment for advanced Coat’s disease
In this study, the anatomical and visual outcomes of paediatric patients with advanced stage 3+ Coat’s disease are reported. Patients were treated with a combination of intravitreal ranibizumab, laser photocoagulation and methyl prednisolone acetate. This was a retrospective review of...Considerations in the management of retinal disorders
Vision research presentations and publications explore practice considerations in the management of AMD and diabetic retinopathy. Over the past two decades in Europe there has been a decreasing prevalence of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and an improvement in visual acuity...In conversation with Iqbal K Ahmed - From across the Atlantic
Ike (Iqbal) K Ahmed is a pioneering ophthalmologist from Canada, currently serving as Assistant Professor at the University of Toronto, and Clinical Assistant Professor at the University of Utah. He is also the Research Fellowship Director, Department of Ophthalmology, University...The Association of British Dispensing Opticians (ABDO) achieves carbon neutrality
The Association’s emissions have been reduced using a blend of offsets from a Gold Standard wind project and a Verra CCB4 forestry project to mix biodiversity protection and restoration with fuel switching to renewable energy.
