Genome-wide Linkage Scan in Fuchs Endothelial Corneal Dystrophy [PDF]
To perform a genome-wide linkage screen with a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) linkage panel to identify regions of genetic linkage in Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) and to analyze affected individuals for mutations in the COL8A2 gene.Ninety-two individuals from 22 families with FECD were identified from our multiplex FECD family ...

Evolution of Ocular Organ‐On‐Chip Systems for Disease Modelling and Drug Testing: Where are We Now?
The rise in ophthalmic diseases due to aging, screen use, and environmental factors has driven demand for better ocular models. Traditional systems fall short, encouraging the development of organ‐on‐chip devices. These microfluidic platforms replicate eye tissue architecture, enable drug screening, and simulate ocular diseases.

ABSTRACT Background To establish normative values for stromal curvature and its relationships to anterior and posterior curvature. Methods Retrospective observational study. Data were obtained from 75 eyes of cataract surgery patients using a high‐resolution anterior segment optical coherence tomograph (AS‐OCT; MS‐39, CSO).

Corneal amyloid staining after trypan blue in Descemet's membrane endothelial keratoplasty
Purpose: This case report seeks to highlight impressive photographs of amyloid staining with trypan blue that persisted after DMEK surgery with 3 years follow-up. This has only been reported in the literature twice previously, and may have contributed to

Corneal endothelial cell dysfunction: etiologies and management
A transparent cornea is essential for the formation of a clear image on the retina. The human cornea is arranged into well-organized layers, and each layer plays a significant role in maintaining the transparency and viability of the tissue.

Presbyopia Correction in Lens Replacement Surgery: A Review
ABSTRACT Presbyopia affects approximately 1.8 billion individuals globally, posing significant challenges as life expectancy and near‐vision demands, particularly with mobile phone use, grow. Addressing presbyopia during lens replacement surgery has become a key focus for cataract surgeons, aiming to reduce dependence on corrective eyewear. This review

Long-term results of corneal wedge resections for the correction of high astigmatism [PDF]
We retrospectively evaluated 41 corneal wedge resections, performed for the correction of high astigmatism in 40 patients who were spectacle and contact lens intolerant. Keratometric astigmatism decreased from an average of 11.7 diopters (range 5 to 22.5
