Measuring aniseikonia tolerance range for stereoacuity – a tool for the refractive surgeon
Abstract Objective No method exists to measure aniseikonia tolerance in stereoacuity. The brain can compensate for 2%–3% aniseikonia (i.e. 2–3 dioptres of anisometropia) without impairing stereoacuity; however, a substantial proportion of anisometropic patients experience problems caused by disruptions of sensory fusion due to surgically induced ...

Classifications of vitreomacular traction syndrome: diameter vs morphology. [PDF]
The aim of this study is to analyze the agreement between the classifications based on morphology and diameter of vitreomacular traction (VMT) syndrome, as well as to correlate the morphological findings of VMT with specific maculopathies.Fifty-three eyes with VMT syndrome were categorized into two classifications based on optical coherence tomography ...

Multimodal Imaging of Lamellar Macular Holes
Evolution of imaging techniques has renewed interest in the diagnosis of lamellar macular hole (LMH) and greatly implemented the possibilities of gaining more detailed insights into its pathogenesis. Among noninvasive techniques, optical coherence tomography (OCT) is considered the primary examination modality to study LMHs, given its ability to image ...

Epiretinal pathology of vitreomacular traction syndrome [PDF]
To investigate the ultrastructure of the vitreoretinal interface in patients with vitreomacular traction syndrome.14 patients with vitreomacular traction syndrome underwent standard pars plana vitrectomy. After induction of posterior vitreous detachment, epiretinal tissue and the inner limiting membrane (ILM) of the retina were removed, and processed ...
