Does Posterior Capsule Opacification Affect the Results of Diagnostic Technologies to Evaluate the Retina and the Optic Disc? [PDF]
The visual outcome obtained after cataract removal may progressively decline because of posterior capsular opacification (PCO). This condition can be treated by creating an opening in the posterior lens capsule by Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy. PCO optical imperfections cause several light reflection, refraction, and diffraction phenomena, which may ...

The role of scanning laser polarimetry using the GDx variable corneal compensator in the management of glaucoma suspects [PDF]
To determine the role of scanning laser polarimetry using the GDx variable corneal compensator (VCC) in the management of glaucoma suspects.Over a 12-month period, 43 of 447 (9.6%) patients referred to a glaucoma screening clinic were classified as "glaucoma suspects" when it was not possible to categorise the optic disc appearance and visual fields as

Changes in Frequency‐Doubling Perimetry in Patients with Type I Diabetes prior to Retinopathy
Purpose. To evaluate the ability of frequency‐doubling technology (FDT) perimetry in detecting visual field defects in young adults with type I diabetes prior to retinopathy or with minor retinovascular changes. Methods. This comparative cross‐sectional study included 30 healthy subjects and 73 age‐matched patients with type I diabetes mellitus.
