Predictors for developing strabismus after paediatric cataract surgery
This study investigates the predictors for strabismus development in patients with paediatric cataract and their final visual acuity. The aim was to improve the treatment of both deprivation and strabismic amblyopia after surgery. The study included 46 children; 21 male,...
VEGF and axial length (RVU)
The authors of this paper set out to examine whether the concentrations of VEGF in the vitreous were associated with refractive error and axial length in eyes without retinal disease, except of macular holes or epiretinal membranes. A vitreous sample...
Detection of antiranibizumab antibodies in exudative AMD
In this study the authors aimed to detect immune response to ranibizumab treatment in wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). An ELISA was employed to quantify the anti-ranibizumab titre which was compared against the control anti-abciximab titre. Titres of anti-ranibizumab antibodies...
Conversion to strabismus and amblyopia
This study was undertaken to evaluate the incidence of true manifest strabismus, the visual acuity at school screening and whether risk of failing screening is different in those discharged at first visit or followed up. The author reviewed 248 children...
Angle of deviation and psychological impact
This questionnaire-based prospective study using the Psychological Impact Questionnaire was designed to investigate whether the size of the angle of deviation, age, sex, presence of diplopia, visual acuity of the worse eye and direction of deviation are related to psychological...
Latanoprost in the treatment of congenital glaucoma
The aim of this study was to investigate the glaucoma control of latanoprost therapy in primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) and assess the factors affecting long-term outcome. Eighty-one eyes of 44 patients with PCG and 42 eyes of 29 patients with...The Global Vision Database
The overall goal of the Global Vision Database (GVD) [1] is to develop and deploy new and improved evidence on the prevalence of blindness and vision impairment (VI) globally. It is a repository which allows us to assess the causes...
Does lower eyelid entropion repair alter corneal topography?
The authors aimed to analyse the corneal morphology before and after advancement of posterior lower eyelid retractors (LERs) alone or in combination with a lateral tarsal strip (LTS) for lower eyelid involutional entropion. Retrospective analysis of 24 consecutive elderly patients...
Effect of change in retinal nerve fibre layer thickness on quality of life in patients with glaucoma
The authors investigated the relationship between structural changes in glaucoma (retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) thickness) and quality of life (as measured by the NEI VFQ-25 questionnaire) over a period of time. Two hundred and sixty eyes of 130 patients...
