Risk factor for surgical failure in consecutive XT
This study was designed to determine the success rate among patients with consecutive exotropia after choosing an appropriate surgical method based on medial rectus function and level of exo deviation. The authors conducted an interventional case series study of 40...
Risk factors for further surgery in consecutive ET
The preoperative and postoperative factors around first surgery for exotropia were investigated for predicting second surgery for consecutive esotropia. Fifty-two patients with consecutive esotropia after exotropia surgery were reviewed: 17 required surgery for the esotropia and 35 did not. There...
Brolucizumab in age-related macular degeneration, HAWK Study
The aim of the study was to collect additional data on efficacy and safety of brolucizumab 6mg intended for commercialization in age-related macular degeneration (AMD) (with an increase in pH and decrease in polysorbate concentration). The HAWK Study was a...Corneal hysteresis: An emerging biomarker in the management of glaucoma
Corneal hysteresis (CH) is gaining recognition as a valuable parameter in the management of glaucoma. Corneal hysteresis is defined as the difference between the inward and outward pressure responses of the cornea during deformation. This measurement reflects the viscoelastic properties...The Wachter Review
Professor Robert Wachter (pronounced Wokter) is well known in the NHS IT sector. In late 2015 Jeremy Hunt announced he had tasked Dr Wachter to lead a review of the digital future of the NHS. The resulting Wachter Review was...The Preston Rule
The selection, specification and fitting of a spectacle frame necessitates the recording of certain measurements particular to the frame. These measurements are also essential when it is required to manufacture a handmade spectacle frame. Instruments designed to accomplish this task...
Surgical outcomes for constant and intermittent exotropia
This study evaluated the surgical results for constant and intermittent exotropia to investigate the factors that might influence the surgical results in a Scandinavian population. This was a retrospective study from 2011-2015 during which time 633 patients had strabismus surgery...
Management of traumatic corneal perforations with anterior lamellar techniques: The mini-DSAEK
The authors present the first case report in which a mini (reduced diameter) Descemet’s stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (mini-DSAEK) has been used to manage a traumatic corneal perforation. A 69-year-old male presented with 6/36 best spectacle-corrected visual acuity (BSCVA) and...Ocular manifestations of multiple sclerosis: an overview
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS), in which there is dissemination of lesions in time (two or more clinical events) and space (multiple lesions seen on brain and spinal imaging). The pathophysiology...Blinking blepharitis has a lot to answer for…
Never ignore the small things’…someone once said. There is no doubt blepharitis is one of the most common eye conditions encountered daily, but with the typical pressures of a busy outpatient department, the management of more obvious, sight-threatening conditions necessarily...What’s new in glaucoma? Clinical trials drive practice changes, surgical advancements gather pace
Rod McNeil reviews the latest developments in the treatment of glaucoma in the UK. Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), which accounts for over two-thirds of all glaucoma cases, has an estimated UK prevalence in 2017 of approximately 2% of people over...
