Outcome of phacoemulsification and extracapsular cataract extraction: A study in a district hospital in Malaysia [PDF]
Malaysian Family Physician, 2014 Cataract is the leading cause of blindness in Malaysia1 and cataract extraction is the most common type of intraocular surgery performed all over the world.2 Cataract surgery has evolved from intracapsular cataract extraction (ICCE) to ...

Model-based approach for analyzing prevalence of nuclear cataracts in elderly residents [PDF]
Computers in Biology and Medicine, 2020, 2020 Recent epidemiological studies have hypothesized that the prevalence of cortical cataracts is closely related to ultraviolet radiation. However, the prevalence of nuclear cataracts is higher in elderly people in tropical areas than in temperate areas. The dominant factors inducing nuclear cataracts have been widely debated.

Ultrasound Biomicroscopy Versus Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography to Assess Anterior Chamber Angle Before and After Cataract Surgery [PDF]
International Journal of Medical Arts, 2022 Background: Cataract extraction surgery might modify the anterior segment characteristics. Two non-invasive devices that can identify these alterations include; Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography [AS-OCT], and Ultrasound Biomicroscopy [UBM ...

Structure-consistent Restoration Network for Cataract Fundus Image Enhancement [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Fundus photography is a routine examination in clinics to diagnose and monitor ocular diseases. However, for cataract patients, the fundus image always suffers quality degradation caused by the clouding lens. The degradation prevents reliable diagnosis by ophthalmologists or computer-aided systems.

Workflow Augmentation of Video Data for Event Recognition with Time-Sensitive Neural Networks [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Supervised training of neural networks requires large, diverse and well annotated data sets. In the medical field, this is often difficult to achieve due to constraints in time, expert knowledge and prevalence of an event. Artificial data augmentation can help to prevent overfitting and improve the detection of rare events as well as overall ...

MTCD: Cataract Detection via Near Infrared Eye Images [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Globally, cataract is a common eye disease and one of the leading causes of blindness and vision impairment. The traditional process of detecting cataracts involves eye examination using a slit-lamp microscope or ophthalmoscope by an ophthalmologist, who checks for clouding of the normally clear lens of the eye. The lack of resources and unavailability

Phase-Specific Augmented Reality Guidance for Microscopic Cataract Surgery Using Long-Short Spatiotemporal Aggregation Transformer [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Phacoemulsification cataract surgery (PCS) is a routine procedure conducted using a surgical microscope, heavily reliant on the skill of the ophthalmologist. While existing PCS guidance systems extract valuable information from surgical microscopic videos to enhance intraoperative proficiency, they suffer from non-phasespecific guidance, leading to ...
