A large multi-ethnic genome-wide association study identifies novel genetic loci for intraocular pressure. [PDF]
, 2017 Elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is a major risk factor for glaucoma, a leading cause of blindness. IOP heritability has been estimated to up to 67%, and to date only 11 IOP loci have been reported, accounting for 1.5% of IOP variability.

Primary graft failure associated with epithelial downgrowth: a case report [PDF]
, 2005 Background Epithelial downgrowth is a rare complication of ocular surgery. While the features of epithelial downgrowth following corneal transplantation are well described, its association with primary graft failure has only been reported once previously.

Endothelial keratoplasty for Fuchs dystrophy
Romanian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2017 We report the case of a 69-year-old female with Fuchs endothelial dystrophy and posterior chamber in-the-bag intraocular lens, whom we treated with DMEK surgical technique. We encountered difficulties both during obtaining the endothelium from the young donor and during the intraocular unrolling and its application on the stroma.
