Visual outcomes after surgery for primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in era of microincision vitrectomy

This is a prospective, multicentre, nationwide study between 2016 and 2017, to investigate the preoperative ocular factors, surgical techniques (pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) or scleral buckling (SB), or combined procedures) for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) and postoperative best corrected visual...

Surgical outcome reporting for exotropic DRS

The authors report the surgical outcomes of patients with exotropic Duane’s retraction syndrome (DRS) in a retrospective study of 73 patients; 67 unilateral cases. Patients had a mean age at surgery of 14.11 years (range 2-33). The left eye was...

Diplopia after orbital decompression

This is a review of patients undergoing a balanced two-wall and fat orbital decompression to identify risk factors for new onset diplopia. Standard decompression techniques were used, but as the surgery was conducted by ENT surgeons, the medial walls were...

Diplopia after cataract surgery – risk factors

The risk factors for binocular diplopia after uncomplicated cataract surgery in adults were studied to analyse the patterns of ocular motility and clinical causes. This was a retrospective review of 40 patients; 25 female. Onset of diplopia was at a...

Outcomes of horizontal muscle transplantation

The authors propose the technique of transplantation of the resected muscle segment to the previously recessed muscle for correction of residual / recurrent strabismus in order to restrict surgery to one eye and avoid large recession of previously recessed rectus...

Blood pressure association with primary open angle glaucoma severity

This prospective observational study involved 47 patients diagnosed with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) examined to investigate their postural blood pressure response and its potential correlation with the severity of glaucomatous optic neuropathy (GON). Participants underwent intraocular pressure and systemic...

Could idebenone by the solution for treating dominant optic atrophy?

Dominant optic atrophy (DOA) is a disease of the retinal ganglion cells, with no current treatment options. In most cases, DOA is caused by a mutation in the OPA1 gene. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect...

Long-term outcomes of using intraoperative relaxed muscle positioning technique in thyroid eye disease

The authors present a retrospective case review of consecutive patients undergoing ocular muscle surgery by one ophthalmologist using the intraoperative relaxed muscle positioning (IRMP) technique for thyroid eye disease (TED)-associated strabismus over a 23-year period. The following data were extracted...

More than 425,000 patients have used a new national online service to register with a GP in its first year.

The past and the future for paediatric ophthalmology

The past 25 years have seen remarkable advances in clinical eye care for children in the UK. This has led to both improved outcomes and better patient and family experiences. There have been substantial changes to patient pathways, major advances...

Astigmatism correction in cataract surgery: Why are we still hesitating?

Toric spectacle lenses were first described in 1847 by George Biddell Airy, and their adoption was, presumably, gradual at that time. Today, correction of astigmatism with glasses is routine. In a recent survey, 87.2% of spectacle prescriptions contained at least...

Intraocular surgery and dry eye: Understanding the link, minimising the risk and preparing for the future

Dry eye disease (DED) and ocular surface disease (OSD) are increasingly recognised as central factors in contemporary intraocular surgery. As cataract, glaucoma and vitreoretinal procedures advance toward greater refractive precision, patient expectations have risen and tolerance for postoperative visual fluctuation...
