A Novel Slit Lamp‐Based System for 3D Ultrasound of the Eye

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives This study aims to develop and evaluate a novel slit‐lamp‐based system to acquire 3‐dimensional (3D) ultrasound volumes using conventional ultrasound probes. Methods A slit‐lamp adapter was 3D printed and connected with a linear actuator and graphical user interface (GUI) system to control movement and create volumes of 2‐dimensional scans ...

Tolerance to induced astigmatism of patients with trifocal or extended depth of focus intraocular lens implantation

Frontiers in Medicine
BackgroundResidual astigmatism is common after cataract surgery involving implantation of an intraocular lens, yet the tolerance of presbyopia-correcting intraocular lens to astigmatism of different magnitudes and axes is poorly understood.

Non-surgical treatment of cataracts

, 1991
Cataracts are a common cause of vision loss in the elderly. Once non-surgical methods of treatment are reliably tested, eye drops, injections, tablets, or diet changes may prevent, delay, or reverse some forms of cataracts.

Assessment of Treatment Response in Patients With Scleromyxedema by the Double Modified Rodnan Skin Score

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Scleromyxedema (SMX) is a cutaneous mucinosis characterised by an abnormal accumulation of mucin in the skin and limited treatment options. Assessment of therapy response during treatment is challenging. Objectives Patients with SMX receiving high‐dose intravenous IVIg therapy were included to assess validity of the double modified ...

Senile cataracts and oxidative stress

, 2010
In numerous epidemiological and animal models, it can be inferred that oxidative stress is a key factor in cataract formation. Production of reactive oxygen species and reduction of endogenous antioxidants both contribute to cataract formation.

Recalcitrant Eyelid Lupus Treated With Topical Ruxolitinib

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lupus of the eyelids, or lupus blepharitis, is a rare and localized form of chronic cutaneous lupus. The use of topical corticosteroids is limited in this sensitive area due to the risk of adverse events. We present a case of eyelid lupus, with histological confirmation, resistant to multiple lines of treatment, successfully treated with ...

Occupational cataracts and lens opacities in interventional cardiology (O'CLOC study): are X-Rays involved? Radiation-induced cataracts and lens opacities.

, 2010
International audienceBACKGROUND: The eye is well known to be sensitive to clearly high doses (>2 Gy) of ionizing radiation. In recent years, however, cataracts have been observed in populations exposed to lower doses.

METTL14 Ameliorates Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Autophagy in Lens Epithelial Cells of Diabetic Cataracts via m6A Modification of RPL3

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diabetic cataracts are a leading cause of blindness, with lens epithelial cells (LECs) exhibiting mitochondrial dysfunction and autophagy inhibition under high glucose (HG) conditions. Methyltransferase‐like 14 (METTL14), an RNA methyltransferase, regulates N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) RNA modification; however, its role in modulating ...
