EYE - Vitreo-Retinal
Before the advent of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), uveitis, in particular cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis, was the most common cause of visual loss in patients with AIDS. HAART has altered the cause of ocular disease in HIV infected individuals by...
Cybersight: Improved Perioperative Management of Cataract Surgery Using OCT Technology Virtual Session
12 April 2024
During this live webinar, we will describe the principles and functionality of OCT technology in perioperative management of cataract surgery. Case demonstrations will highlight the use of OCT before and after cataract surgery. Additionally, the use of the latest anterior...
Late stromal rejection in DALK
This case series reported on late stromal rejections in eyes after uncomplicated deep anterior lamellar keratoplasties (DALKs). Four eyes of three patients experienced episodes of isolated stromal rejection 33 to 46 months after surgically uncomplicated DALKs and a minimum of...The creation of PlayDoh<sup>®</sup> models as an educational tool for teaching anatomy of the eyelid

An understanding of the anatomy of the eyelid is essential for training in oculoplastic surgery. Active learning has been shown to increase knowledge and retention and has an advantage over passive teaching methods alone [1,2]. PlayDoh® models have been used...
OVD influences
This prospective case series provides data on a previously uninvestigated area. Eyes due to have routine phakoemulsification were divided into six groups according to ophthalmic viscosurgical device (OVD) type. After cataract extraction aphasic refraction using intraoperative aberrometry with the ocular...Corneal tattooing as treatment for bullous keratopathy
This retrospective study looked at differences in epithelial smoothing in patients with bullous keratopathy (BK) undergoing either corneal tattooing or anterior stromal puncture (ASP). Both procedures were carried out for symptomatic relief in eyes with poor visual potential. Chinese ink...DALK as an early therapeutic option for Acanthamoeba keratitis
Eleven patients with Acanthamoeba keratitis (AK) were treated by early therapeutic deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK). All surgeries were performed in patients who had no response to standard medical therapy of chlorhexidine gluconate, propamidine isethionate and neomycin sulphate, within 10-15...OCT imaging of occluded puncta
This is a description of the use of enhanced depth optical coherence tomography (OCT) to see whether a patent ampulla or canaliculus is detectable in patients with absent or occluded puncta.
