The impacts of high refractive errors on self‐reported visual function and visual concern

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To examine the association between refractive errors and self‐reported visual function and visual concern, considering self‐perceived present eyesight, concerns about vision, accomplishing less and limitations in daily activities in an eye‐healthy cohort.

Interpreting the structure–function relationship in high myopia‐associated glaucoma: A review

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Visual field (VF) interpretation in high myopia‐associated glaucoma (HMG) is challenging due to frequent structure–function discordance and coexisting myopia‐related changes. These changes may reduce the reliability of conventional structure–function mapping and increase the risk of misclassifying non‐glaucomatous VF abnormalities as ...

THE ROLE OF THE LOCAL AND GENERAL SOMATIC FACTORS FOR THE OPEN-ANGLE GLAUCOMA DEVELOPMENT IN PATIENTS WITH EYE MANIFESTATIONS OF PSEUDOEXFOLIATION SYNDROME

open access: yesОфтальмохирургия, 2015
Pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PES) is one of the best known triggers of glaucoma. The development of the open-angle glaucoma only in some patients with the PES with definite local and general risk factors requires a further research.Purpose.

Pharmacological Management of Open Angle Glaucoma

open access: yes, 2022
The management of open angle glaucoma hinges on delaying optic nerve damage by maintaining low values of intraocular pressure. This can be achieved with the use of lasers, surgical techniques, or by way of pharmacotherapy. Pharmacological treatments were

Hormonal replacement therapy in postmenopausal women ≥50 years is associated with the incidence of glaucoma: Evidence from 6576 females in Finland

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Hormonal replacement therapy (HRT) in postmenopausal women appears to affect glaucoma risk, but findings are inconsistent. We aimed to explore whether the use of postmenopausal HRT plays a role in glaucoma development in Finland. Methods The main outcome variable was glaucoma incidence measured by initiation of special reimbursement ...

The Tutopatch® assisted surgery for complex strabismus study: TASCS‐study

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate the efficacy of tendon elongation using bovine pericardium (Tutopatch®) in complex strabismus surgeries, with a specific focus on longer follow‐up of postoperative outcomes and patient satisfaction. Methods In this pre‐post cohort study, the records of all patients who underwent tendon elongation strabismus surgery with ...

Biomarkers in primary open angle glaucoma

open access: yesClinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (CCLM), 2012
Abstract Glaucoma, a leading cause of blindness worldwide, is currently defined as a disturbance of the structural or functional integrity of the optic nerve that causes characteristic atrophic changes in the optic nerve, which may lead to specific visual field defects over time.

A genome-wide association study of intra-ocular pressure suggests a novel association in the gene FAM125B in the TwinsUK cohort

open access: yes, 2014
Glaucoma is a major cause of blindness in the world. To date, common genetic variants associated with glaucoma only explain a small proportion of its heritability. We performed a genome-wide association study of intra-ocular pressure (IOP), an underlying

Patient‐reported outcomes and visual function after four refractive strategies in cataract surgery: A randomized controlled trial

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) and visual function across four groups of public cataract patients: emmetropia, mini‐monovision, monovision with partial‐range of field (RoF) narrow intraocular lenses (IOLs) and patients implanted with partial‐RoF extended IOLs.
