Driving Innovation: The Impact of National Health Policies on Optometry Research in East Asia
The International Journal of Health Planning and Management, Volume 41, Issue 1, Page 37-46, January 2026.ABSTRACT This study examines the optometric research landscape in three East Asian countries—China, Japan, and Korea—analysing how research trends align with each country's national health strategies. By evaluating published articles and reviews from national journals between 2006 March 2025, we identify key areas of focus, including paediatric ...

Evolution of corneal thickness and optical density after laser in situ keratomileusis versus small incision lenticule extraction for myopia correction [PDF]
, 2020 Purpose To compare the thickness and stromal optical density (OD) evolution of the flap and cap after femtosecond (FS-LASIK; Visumax) and small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE), respectively, for myopia correction.

Eye &ENT Research, Volume 2, Issue 4, Page 275-283, December 2025.Abstract Background Neurotrophic keratopathy (NK) is a rare degenerative corneal disease characterized by reduced corneal sensitivity and impaired epithelial healing, frequently resulting in persistent epithelial defects and corneal ulcers. Conventional therapies provide symptomatic relief but do not restore corneal innervation, highlighting a ...

Can we overcome the challenges of sutures in lamellar keratoplasty?
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2011 Lamellar keratoplasty (LK) is a technique which can be followed for both tectonic and optical purposes. We describe a technique of sutureless anterior LK by fixing the donor lenticule to the recipient bed using fibrin glue.
