Feb 19th, 2021 - Traumatic injury in the pediatric population often results in significant refractive errors that if left untreated can lead to amblyopia. Scleral contact lenses (ScCLs) have recently gained popularity in this population for efficacy in treatment o...

Feb 19th, 2021 - To determine the effects of optically imposed astigmatism on myopia development in chickens. Chicks were randomly assigned to wear either spherical (-10D, "LIM", n = 14) or sphero-cylindrical lenses (n ≥ 19 in each group) monocularly for a week fr...

Feb 12th, 2021 - Small incision lenticule extraction (SmILE) is a stromal based, flapless, minimally invasive form of laser vision correction for the treatment of myopia and myopic astigmatism. SmILE surgery is a more technical procedure compared to other refracti...

Feb 10th, 2021 - The aim of this study was to assess the impact of cataract progression using the Haigis formula-calculated intraocular lens (IOL) power and investigate the accuracy of IOL power measured at different time points. This prospective study was perform...

Feb 4th, 2021 - Aniso-astigmatism may hinder normal visual development in preschool children. Knowing its prevalence, biometric parameters and risk factors is fundamental to children eye care. The purpose of this study was to determine the biometric components of...

Jul 31st, 2018 - There is limited evidence to support the safety and efficacy of both topical and systemic ?-blockers to promote regression of periocular hemangiomas. Additional research may confirm the best dosage and route of administration to maximize efficacy.

Sep 4th, 2019 - Keratoconus Keratoconus is a noninflammatory ocular disorder characterized by progressive thinning and conelike protrusion of the cornea. The corneal topographic changes result in high irregular astigmatism and reduced visual acuity, which can man.

Aug 6th, 2019 - Rossi and colleagues evaluated the efficacy of corneal welding to close wounds after cataract surgery. The technique involves laser-assisted closure of the corneal wound(s) by a diode laser that welds the stroma.

Dec 11th, 2018 - Case Diagnosis High refractive error is the correct diagnosis, given the normal dilated fundus exam and astigmatism found with the cycloplegic refraction. Pseudoleukocoria, a transient artefactual white pupillary reflex seen on flash-illuminated p...

Oct 25th, 2018 - A 37-year-old Illinois truck driver has become the first person in the United States to receive new implantable lenses for the correction of myopia with astigmatism approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) last month. On October 22, r...

Jul 19th, 2018 - Correcting for Posterior Corneal Astigmatism With refractive outcomes for cataract surgery becoming increasingly precise, expectations for astigmatism correction are rising in equal measure. Although toric intraocular lens (IOL) implants have revo...
