Outcome of phacoemulsification and extracapsular cataract extraction: A study in a district hospital in Malaysia [PDF]

open access: yesMalaysian 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 ...

Influence of artificial tears on corneal parameter measurement using three different devices: Keratometry and Scheimpflug technology, a randomized trial

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the effect of artificial tear (AT) application on the repeatability of corneal parameters with three different devices. Methods In this prospective, randomized clinical trial, 145 patients were measured with one of three devices in the Department of Ophthalmology, Goethe University, Frankfurt, Germany.

Impact of cataract surgery on driving difficulty and quality of life for older drivers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The demand for cataract surgery is set to increase due to the ageing population of Australia. Cataracts are usually bilateral, but cataract surgery is almost always performed one eye at a time.

Considerations on the Haigis formula: Are better outcomes possible with tuning?

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To design a vergence‐based lens power formula based on the classical Haigis formula for better outcomes while retaining the original formula architecture. Methods Four new formula variants (A–D) incorporating a sum of segments correction for axial length, harmonic mean of corneal radii instead of arithmetic mean (all variants), and ...

Molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying gyrate atrophy: Why is the retina primarily affected?

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Gyrate atrophy of the choroid and retina (GACR; OMIM #258870) is a rare early‐onset autosomal recessive disorder, caused by bi‐allelic pathogenic variants in the gene coding for ornithine aminotransferase (OAT) resulting in hyperornithinaemia.

Choroidal melanoma patient views on the importance of treatment characteristics and outcomes, and physicians' information provision in the Netherlands

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To identify the treatment characteristics and outcomes that Dutch patients with large or juxtapapillary choroidal melanoma consider important when choosing between enucleation and proton beam therapy (PBT). We further determined to what extent these treatment characteristics and outcomes are discussed with newly diagnosed choroidal ...

Deep learning-enabled prediction of surgical errors during cataract surgery: from simulation to real-world application [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Real-time prediction of technical errors from cataract surgical videos can be highly beneficial, particularly for telementoring, which involves remote guidance and mentoring through digital platforms. However, the rarity of surgical errors makes their detection and analysis challenging using artificial intelligence.
