Retrospective Comparison of Diamond Burr Debridement as a Treatment for Non‐Healing Ulcers Associated With Spontaneous Chronic Corneal Epithelial Defects, Corneal Endothelial Degeneration, and Other Concurrent Ocular Diseases

Veterinary Ophthalmology, Volume 29, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To determine if superficial corneal ulcers related to corneal endothelial degeneration (CED) or other concurrent ophthalmic disease (COD) had significantly different healing outcomes and incidences of complications post‐diamond burr debridement (DBD) compared to spontaneous chronic corneal epithelial defects (SCCEDs) undergoing DBD ...

Ocular Surface Microbiota Alterations Following FS‐LASIK and Their Association With Postoperative Dry Eye

Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Purpose Given the limited evidence on ocular surface microbiota (OSM) changes after femtosecond laser‐assisted in situ keratomileusis (FS‐LASIK) and their link to dry eye (DE), this study aimed to compare microbial profiles in patients with and without postoperative DE, offering a basis for early detection and targeted treatment.

Quantitative MRI Assessment of Orbital Structures in Radioactive Iodine‐131 Therapy for Inactive Graves’ Ophthalmopathy

International Journal of Endocrinology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Objective The understanding regarding the role of orbital magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in predicting the prognosis of radioactive iodine‐131 (I‐131) therapy for patients with inactive Graves’ ophthalmopathy (GO) is limited. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the application of MRI quantitative measurements of orbital structures in radioactive I‐
