Quality of Life in Myopia: Laser‐Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis Versus Contact Lenses

Eye &ENT Research, Volume 3, Issue 2, Page 75-82, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Laser‐assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) and contact lenses are commonly used to correct refractive errors, but their effects on quality of life, patient satisfaction, and dry eye disease remain variable. This study compares these outcomes between LASIK and contact lens users.

DKK1 Targeting in Corneal Schwann Cells Rescues Axonal Regeneration and Mechanosensory Function After Corneal Injury

Journal of Neuroscience Research, Volume 104, Issue 6, June 2026.
The schematic illustrates that corneal injury imparted by a stromal incision or by toxic chemical exposure causes corneal Schwann cells (cSCs) and axons to degenerate rapidly, resulting in impaired mechanosensory function. We hypothesized that repair cSCs, which develop post injury, are an as‐yet‐untested cellular target for axonal regeneration.

Unraveling Chronic Pain: From Mechanisms and Risks to Diagnosis and Treatment

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
Chronic pain arises through distinct molecular pathways categorized into nociceptive, neuropathic, and nociplastic types. Nociceptive pain begins with TRP channel activation in peripheral nociceptors, signaling via Aδ‐ and C‐fibers through the spinal dorsal horn and spinothalamic tracts to the brain, regulated by descending inhibition and involving ...

Cell and Gene Therapy in Equine Ocular Disease

Veterinary Ophthalmology, Volume 29, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Equine ocular disease is common and often challenging to treat using traditional methods. This has led to the development of new therapies. Like human medicine, veterinary medicine is adopting cellular and gene therapy as innovative approaches. Equine ocular disease is a particularly promising area for these techniques.

Tolerance to surgically induced anisometropia—A systematic review

Acta Ophthalmologica, Volume 104, Issue 1, Page 10-21, February 2026.
Abstract Surgically induced anisometropia is well tolerated by some individuals, while others experience binocular visual complaints. Surgically induced anisometropia is a common treatment for presbyopia and may also intentionally or non‐intentionally be the results after surgery for unilateral cataract with ametropia in the fellow eye.
