Bromfenac versus betamethasone in diabetic macular oedema
This is a randomised, prospective, single-centre trial in patients diagnosed with diabetic macular oedema (DMO) with central subfield thickness (CST) of 250-500µm, who refused anti-VEGF treatment. Nineteen eyes of 19 patients were randomised to bromfenac (BF) or betamethasone (BM) drops,...Line-up confirmed for Eye News Symposium!
We are delighted to confirm an excellent line-up of speakers and topics for the Eye News Symposium, taking place in Glasgow on Sunday 20 January.
A diagnostic imaging technique for optic pathway tumours
The authors discuss the difficult clinical scenario of patients with deteriorating visual function and an optic pathway lesion. The morbidity associated with biopsy means a highly sensitive and specific imaging technique would be of great value. The authors describe the...
Displacement of submacular haemorrhage – comparative study pneumatic displacement versus subretinal cocktail injection
The authors report a multicentre retrospective interventional case series study comparing the outcome of submacular haemorrhage (SMH) using pneumatic displacement with intravitreal expansile gas versus treatment with pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) versus subretinal injection of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), anti-vascular...
Post hoc analysis of the CANTREAT randomised trial
CANTREAT, a Canadian multicentre two-year randomised trial compares treat and extend treatment (T&E) relative to the monthly administration of Ranibizumab in nAMD. Two-hundred and eighty-five treatment-naïve patients with nAMD were randomised to receive either a once-monthly dosing or T&E regimen...
Steroid implants in the treatment of post-epiretinal membrane peel macular oedema
This is a retrospective review of 39 eyes of 37 patients treated with Ozurdex® (intravitreal dexamethasone implant) for persistent post-operative cystoid macular oedema (CMO) following vitrectomy and idiopathic epiretinal membrane (ERM) peeling. The 0.7mg implant was injected in each eye...
Assessment of retinal capillary VD and FAZ area in CSC using OCTA
The authors aim to report a cross-sectional, case controlled study, the purpose of which was to access the retinal capillary vessel density (VD) and foveal avascular zone (FAZ) area in acute and chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) patients compared to...
Outcomes of corneal collagen crosslinking (CXL) in pseudophakic bullous keratopathy (PBK)
This was a retrospective non-comparative, interventional case series of 50 eyes in 50 patients with symptomatic PBK who underwent CXL (epithelium-off). Central corneal thickness (CCT), pain score, best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), and corneal transparency were recorded at baseline; at...
Corneal and astigmatic changes after medial rectus recession surgery of 6mm
This study prospectively compared changes in astigmatism before and two months after unilateral recession of medial rectus muscles using Pentacam. The fellow unoperated eye was used as the control eye. The study included 66 eyes and 33 patients; 21 males,...Amnion-assisted conjunctival epithelial redirection (ACER): Enhancing stem cell transplantation treatment of total limbal stem cell deficiency
An exploration of Professor Harminder Dua’s recent work using a technique called amnion-assisted conjunctival epithelial redirection (ACER) to aid the success of conjunctival-limbal grafting procedures. ACER provides a refined way to use amniotic membrane (amnion), such as Omnigen® (NuVision® Biotherapies,...
