Accuracy of ASOCT muscle insertion measurements

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

Using optical coherence tomography angiography to detect MoyaMoya vasculopathy

Moyamoya (MM) disease is a chronic cerebrovascular disease that can lead to progressive stenosis of the terminal portions of the internal carotid arteries and their proximal branches. The authors carried out a cross-sectional cohort study to investigate vascular changes in...

Handheld OCT in children with Down’s syndrome

This article investigated the use of handheld optical coherence tomography (OCT) in children with Down’s syndrome. Fourteen children were recruited to the study with a mean age of 6 years and 10 months with 57% male. All patients were dilated....

Survey of paediatric ophthalmology practice in the US

The purpose of this study was to develop a survey to assess possible solutions for an economic turnaround in paediatric ophthalmology. A 12-item survey was circulated with questions related to practice location, setting and years in practice. Responses were received...

OCTA optic disc measurement differences between glaucoma and pituitary macroadenoma

This prospective case-control study aimed to assess the potential of optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography (OCTA) in distinguishing between glaucoma and pituitary macroadenoma based on optic disc appearance. Thirty-one patients (23 with glaucoma, eight with pituitary macroadenoma) were...

Macular pigment in relatives of AMD patients

Blue light causes photo-oxidative retinal injury and macular pigment (MP), with lutein, zeaxanthin and mesozeaxanthin as the main components, as a filter that protects the macula from this damage. Previous studies indicated that low levels of macular pigment optical density...

Changes in retinal and choroidal microcirculation after strabismus surgery

The aim was to evaluate retinal and choroidal microcirculation using optical coherence tomography angiography after strabismus surgery. This was a cross-sectional observation study of 44 eyes of 44 patients. Patients were split into three groups: (1) one-muscle horizontal surgery (n=9);...
