A portable multifunctional ophthalmic device for remote self-examination of the eye
This paper presents the design of a new portable ophthalmic device, the so-called 3-in-1 device, that allows patients to self-examine their eyes. The device combines the three most essential ophthalmic examinations: slit lamp biomicroscopy to examine the

Ocular Manifestations of Metabolic Syndrome: A Systemic Vascular Phenotype
ABSTRACT Context Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is defined by central obesity, insulin resistance, hypertension and dyslipidemia. MetS affects over one‐third of US adults. Beyond its cardiovascular burden, MetS has clinically relevant associations with ocular health and may contribute to a systemic vascular and neuro‐metabolic phenotype involving the retina,

Equine eyelid reconstruction by semi‐circular skin flap blepharoplasty
Summary Reconstructive surgeries of the equine eyelid carry significant challenges for the equine surgeon, due to the poorly mobile and tightly adhered facial skin in this species. Preservation of lid function is an essential surgical consideration in order to maintain protection of the globe and cornea and to provide ocular comfort to the case ...

Corneal Sequestration and Bilateral Distichiasis in a Binturong (Arctictis binturong)
ABSTRACT Objective To report the first documented case of corneal sequestration and distichiasis in a binturong (Arctictis binturong), discuss implications of disease prevalence in a non‐domestic feliform, and hypothesize on potential etiology and predisposing factors for corneal sequestration.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Rebound tonometry (RT) is performed without anaesthesia with a hand held device. The primary aim was to compare RT with Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT) and to correlate with central corneal thickness (CCT).

Intraocular pressure and ocular pulse amplitude using dynamic contour tonometry and contact lens tonometry [PDF]
Background The new Ocular Dynamic Contour Tonometer (DCT), investigational device supplied by SMT (Swiss Microtechnology AG, Switzerland) allows simultaneous recording of intraocular pressure (IOP) and ocular pulse amplitude (OPA). It was the aim of this

Glaucoma is increasingly understood as a neurodegenerative disorder shaped by sleep and circadian physiology, not intraocular pressure alone. Sleep loss and obstructive sleep apnea suppress BDNF–TrkB neurotrophic signaling, impair sleep‐dependent glymphatic clearance, and trigger microglial neuroinflammation and vascular insult at the optic nerve head,

Australian and New Zealand Glaucoma Society (ANZGS) Consensus on Interventional Glaucoma
ABSTRACT Background Traditional reactive ‘wait and see’ approaches in glaucoma management often result in unacceptable rates of permanent vision loss. This consensus defines a proactive ‘interventional glaucoma’ framework tailored for the Australian and New Zealand healthcare context. Methods A modified Delphi consensus process was utilised, consisting

Background Measurement of intraocular pressure (IOP) is essential for glaucoma patients. Many factors such as central corneal thickness (CCT) can affect the accuracy of IOP measurement.

ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to evaluate pre‐ and postoperative changes in the iridocorneal angle, ciliary cleft (CC), and ciliary muscle (CM) in canine eyes with intumescent cataracts using ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM), with comparative reference to normal and non‐intumescent cataractous eyes.
