Suture tensile strength

The effect of solutions commonly used in strabismus surgery were evaluated on 6-0 polyglactin suture tensile strength. The method involved a simple dead load test. Specimens of 6-0 suture were loaded in tension until breakage. This was repeated on 10...

Surgical options for the treatment of hyperopia

The modern refractive surgeon has a variety of options available to treat patients with hyperopia who wish to be independent of spectacles and contact lenses. Unlike in low myopia where presbyopic patients may have the ability to see well for...

SD-OCT detection of minimally visible retinoblastoma

This paper reports minimally visible tumour recurrence that was detectable on spectral domain OCT (SD-OCT) in a two-month old infant who had a diagnosis of bilateral familial retinoblastoma. The infant was treated with IVC for six cycles with vincristine, etoposide...

Factors affecting the success of canalicular repairs

This is a ten year retrospective review of 137 canalicular laceration repairs, looking for factors which affected the outcome. A successful outcome was defined as no epiphora at three months or more after removal of the stent. Overall the success...

CSD-OCT detection of minimally visible retinoblastoma

This paper reports minimally visible tumour recurrence that was detectable on spectral domain OCT (SD-OCT) in a two-month-old infant who had a diagnosis of bilateral familial retinoblastoma. The infant was treated with IVC for six cycles with vincristine, etoposide and...

Identification and diagnosis of thalamic haemorrhage

This paper presents a case of thalamic haemorrhage and discusses clinical findings, providing valuable insight into signs clinicians need to look for. The case presented is of a 76-year-old female who developed left hemiplegia and hemi anaesthesia. Ocular motility testing...

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between smoking and prognosis of ocular Behçet’s disease (BD). Records of 202 patients with ocular features of BD were reviewed from a Turkish hospital. Patients were divided into two groups according to their...

Using graphical illustration to predict giant cell arteritis

A nomogram is a chart or graph of scaled variables that facilitates the approximate computation of a mathematical function via intersecting lines. The objective of this study was to illustrate the use of a nomogram for the prediction of giant...

Staged excision of primary periocular BCC

This is a 10 retrospective review of case notes study of 437 patients of staged basal cell carcinoma (BCC) excisions between 2000 and 2017. All patients had 3mm clinically clear margins with staged excision and standard reconstruction techniques were performed...

Timed resolution of subperiosteal empyema

Accuracy of AS-OCT muscle insertion measurements

Anterior segment - optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) is a non-contact imaging method that can provide accurate measures of extraocular muscles to limbus insertion distances. The authors evaluated the accuracy of AS-OCT for locating horizontal extraocular muscle insertions after strabismus surgery...
