High-fluence collagen cross-linking
The authors treat seven eyes with progressive keratoconus with a high energy (18mW) for five minutes delivering a total energy similar to that suggested by the original Dresden protocol (3mW for 30mins). All eyes had a thickness >400µm following epithelial...
Case reports of neuro-ophthalmological complications of CIPD
The authors present three cases of neuro-ophthalmological complications of chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIPD). CIPD can lead to prominent nerve hypertrophy which can mimic other forms of neuropathy radiologically. In addition, complications can occur which can cause diagnostic difficulties. All...
Aberrant regeneration rates following traumatic oculomotor palsy
Traumatic oculomotor nerve palsies can result in aberrant regeneration / synkinesis which impairs normal facial function. In this paper, the authors retrospectively reviewed the records of 16 patients with traumatic oculomotor nerve palsies who were treated with or without steroids....
Using a pupillometer to confirm presence of RAPD in post stroke homonymous hemianopia
It has been reported that relative afferent pupillary defects (RAPDs) may be present in patients with occipital lobe lesions. However, a small contralateral RAPD due to a difference in the crossed and uncrossed fibres can be difficult to detect using...
Use of the RAPDx device to evaluate efficacy of treatment in patients with optic nerve disease
The RAPDx objectively determines the RAPD magnitude by alternately presenting light stimuli to each eye and deriving amplitude and latency scores. The authors of this paper evaluated the amplitude and latency scores from the RAPDx together with other ophthalmic investigations...
Strabismus measurement comparisons
The authors conducted a prospective study to compare the measurements obtained by objective alternate prism and cover test (PCT) and the subjective red glass test in 72 patients aged 60 years on average and with a mean visual acuity of...
Progression of high anisometropia in children
This study aimed to analyse the stability and progression of higher degrees of myopic anisometropic in children. This retrospective study included 63 children meeting the inclusion criteria. Mean age at initial visit was 4.3 years ±2. There were 51% males...
Comparison of methods of central corneal thickness measurement in glaucoma
This prospective study was done to compare the accuracy and reproducibility of central corneal thickness measured by hand-held and disc-mounted ultrasound pachymeter in glaucoma patients. Sixty-five patients were included in the study. Patients with corneal diseases, corneal astigmatism >3 diopters...
Walking with prisms
This study was undertaken to assess which tempero-spatial properties of gait are influenced by vertical yoked prism (VYP) wear and consider any adjustments to gait made to maintain stability both during and following VYP wear. Thirty-one healthy adults were recruited....
Errors in refractive surgery
A retrospective case series looking at sources of errors in patients undergoing laser refractive surgery. Twenty-two cases of error were identified in 18 patients; 15 were unilateral, three bilateral and two errors occurred in the same eye (on attempting correction...
Superior oblique posterior tenotomy for orbital fracture strabismus
The use of superior oblique posterior tenotomy (SOPT) is reported as a primary procedure in five patients with orbital blowout fractures. The mean follow-up was 15.2 months (6-20). Two patients required further surgery because of a larger vertical deviation. SOPT...
