Artificial intelligence (AI) is frequently described as having the capacity to dramatically change and improve healthcare. One extensively studied application of AI in ophthalmology involves the diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy (DR) or diabetic maculopathy (DM) using retinal imaging. An emerging...
DTI/MRI results in amblyopia
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is an MRI technique that can evaluate white matter integrity and neuronal connectivity. Normal brain maturation and myelination are associated with reduced water diffusion and increased diffusion anisotropy. The authors aimed to evaluate the anterior optic...
Albinism and later life visual development
This study aimed to evaluate whether best corrected visual acuity changed significantly in the second decade of life in those with albinism and the impact of extraocular muscle surgery and type of albinism on change in acuity during the second...
Care providers view on how to improve care for paediatric conjunctivitis
The authors present a qualitative study. Purposeful sampling was used to recruit physicians or advanced practitioners for paediatric care in emergency, urgent or primary care settings.

Importance of vision input to postural stability
This literature review was undertaken to overview postural stability in strabismus and amblyopia. Postural stability is a complex skill that coordinates dynamic sensory mechanisms to facilitate sustained balance. The review discusses critical roles of vision in postural stability, e.g. postural...Cornea teaching techniques: one cornea donor tissue for two purposes
There is a national shortage in the UK in corneal graft material [1,2]. The majority (69%) of corneal transplants in the UK are partial thickness, with 35% being Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) [2]. During the preparation of the donor...
Outcomes and complications of supramaximal levator resection
This is a report of 35 children with unilateral congenital ptosis who underwent a supramaximal levator resection, involving extensive dissection of levator including cutting Whitnall’s ligament. The average preoperative margin reflex distance to the upper lid (MRD1) was 0.5mm, and...AI-enabled smart cane scoops award for transforming lives of people with sight loss
