Oxidative stress and premature senescence in corneal endothelium following pe...
Abstract Background The purpose of this study was to address the question of how the premature senescence process may affect corneal endothelium after penetrating keratoplasty,... -
Eye Biometry Using Quantitatve 3-D OCT
Cataracts cause the crystalline lens of the eye to progressively lose its transparency, which decreases vision. It is one of the major causes of vision loss in our aging... -
Novel mutation in the CHST6 gene causes macular corneal dystrophy in a black ...
Abstract Background Macular corneal dystrophy (MCD) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder that is characterized by progressive corneal opacity that starts in early childhood... -
Twenty-five years of optical coherence tomography: the paradigm shift in sens...
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has become one of the most successful optical technologies implemented in medicine and clinical practice mostly due to the possibility of... -
Long-term follow-up after scleral lens fixation in patients with Marfan syndrome
Abstract Background The dislocation of the crystalline lens is a common finding in patients with Marfan syndrome (MFS). Scleral intraocular lens (IOL) fixation is an accepted... -
Corneal biomechanical properties after SMILE versus FLEX, LASIK, LASEK, or PR...
Abstract Background The aim of this study was to compare the postoperative corneal biomechanical properties between small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) and other corneal... -
Enucleation Refusal for Retinoblastoma: A Global Study
Background: Enucleation (eye removal) is often the only curative treatment for the childhood eye cancer retinoblastoma, yet parental refusal of enucleation commonly contributes... -
Long-term Safety and Efficacy of Human-Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell (iPS) Gr...
Abstract The U.S. Food and Drug Administration recently approved phase I/II clinical trials for embryonic stem (ES) cell-based retinal pigmented epithelium (RPE)... -
Quantitative evaluation of corneal epithelial edema after cataract surgery us...
Abstract Purpose The optical density of the cornea can be evaluated quantitatively by “densitometry” using a rotating Scheimpflug camera. Densitometry allows evaluation of... -
Minification of fundus optical coherence tomographic images in gas-filled eye
Abstract Background Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is being used increasingly to evaluate and manage a variety of retinal diseases, but not much is known about the... -
Combination of Ranibizumab with macular laser for macular edema secondary to ...
Abstract Background It is not clear whether macular laser combined with anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) can reduce the number of anti-VEGF injections in the... -
Pigmentary keratitis in pugs in the United Kingdom: prevalence and associated...
Abstract Background Pigmentary keratitis (PK) is commonly recognised in Pugs, but its aetiology is not completely understood. The aim of this study was to determine the... -
Impact of an influenza information pamphlet on vaccination uptake among Polis...
Abstract Background In Edinburgh, Scotland, lower influenza vaccine uptake has been observed in primary school children in the Polish community. Methods To address this... -
High-resolution dual-modality photoacoustic ocular imaging
We have developed a prototype ocular imaging system that integrates optical-resolution photoacoustic microscopy and high-frequency ultrasound imaging. The system can perform... -
Multimodal adaptive optics retinal imager: design and performance
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) and scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (SLO) are complementary imaging modalities, the combination of which can provide clinicians with a wealth of... -
Prevalence of congenital colour vision deficiency among Black school children...
Abstract Objectives Congenital colour vision deficiency (CCVD) is an x-linked chromosome disorder that results from abnormalities in one or all three-cone typeâ s... -
Patient reported outcome measures for visual impairment after stroke: a syste...
Abstract Purpose The aim of this review was to identify patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) for use in research and clinical practice involving individuals with visual... -
Optical coherence tomography features of retinal lesions in Chinese patients ...
Abstract Background To evaluate the optical coherence tomography (OCT) features of retinal lesions in Chinese patients with endogenous Candida endophthalmitis (ECE). Methods We... -
Effect of Limbal relaxing incisions during implantable collamer lens surgery
Abstract Background The limbal relaxing incisions (LRIs) technique is a safe and an inexpensive procedure, which is simple for experts to perform. It can effectively reduce... -
Predictors of health-related quality of life in Chinese patients receiving tr...
Abstract Background Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is currently the leading cause of irreversible visual impairment in developed countries and seriously affects the...
