Does the scleral encircling band provide a protective effect against the progression of diabetic retinopathy? [PDF]
AIM: To evaluate the effect of scleral encircling bands on the development and progression of diabetic retinopathy (DR) in diabetic patients. METHODS: The medical records of diabetic patients who underwent unilateral retinal detachment (RD) surgery ...

Purpose: To evaluate the short‐ and long‐term effect of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling on visual acuity and macular morphology in myopic foveoschisis (MF) patients and to identify potential prognostic factors. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of patients with MF who underwent PPV with ILM

Identification of primary angle-closure on AS-OCT images with Convolutional Neural Networks [PDF]
Primary angle-closure disease (PACD) is a severe retinal disease, which might cause irreversible vision loss. In clinic, accurate identification of angle-closure and localization of the scleral spur's position on anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) is essential for the diagnosis of PACD.

Low‐Cost 3D‐Printed Binocular Indirect Ophthalmoscope
Background: Currently available binocular indirect ophthalmoscopes (BIOs) are large and expensive. We sought to create a compact, low‐cost 3D‐printed BIO. Methods: The BIO was made with off‐the‐shelf electronics and optical components, computer‐aided design (CAD), and a consumer‐grade 3D printer.

Sclera Force Control in Robot-assisted Eye Surgery: Adaptive Force Control vs. Auditory Feedback [PDF]
Surgeon hand tremor limits human capability during microsurgical procedures such as those that treat the eye. In contrast, elimination of hand tremor through the introduction of microsurgical robots diminishes the surgeon's tactile perception of useful and familiar tool-to-sclera forces.

Buckling and post-buckling of cylindrical shells under combined torsional and axial loads [PDF]
The buckling behavior of cylindrical shells has gained significant interest over the past century due to its rich nonlinear behavior and broad engineering applications. While the buckling of cylindrical shells under a single load (e.g., compression or torsion) has been extensively studied, the buckling behavior under combined torsional and axial loads ...

Corneal Epithelial Defects in Diabetic Patients Following Pars Plana Vitrectomy
Diabetes mellitus is a known risk factor for corneal epithelial defects (CEDs) after pars plana vitrectomy (PPV), but it is unclear if diabetes severity or specific diabetic risk factors are associated with an increased risk of CED. The purpose of this retrospective cohort study was to identify factors associated with CED and healing time in ...

Purpose: To evaluate the role of adjuvant mitomycin‐C (MMC) use in cases of recurrent rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) complicated by proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) managed by relaxing retinotomy and retinectomy (RR). Methods: A retrospective analysis of consecutive patients undergoing vitreoretinal surgery with RR for RD and PVR was ...

Phase I trial of recombinant human nerve growth factor for neurotrophic keratitis [PDF]
Neurotrophic keratitis/keratopathy (NK), a rare degenerative corneal disease, lacks effective pharmacologic therapies.1 Because NK pathology involves trigeminal nerve damage and loss of corneal innervation, nerve growth factor (NGF) is surmised to ...
