Intraocular drainage surgery in angle closure remains experimental and investigators are collecting data regarding its efficacy as well as adverse effects.
Current options, challenges in developing novel therapies.
This year, the COPHy meeting moves beyond retina, addressing uveitis, neuro-ophthalmology and glaucoma in Seville, Spain
An interdisciplinary team at Duke University has developed a proof-of-concept machine learning model capable of detecting symptomatic Alzheimer disease using multimodal retinal imaging data.
Three IOLs are evaluated in a randomised study
Sophisticated programmes require an evolving mindset
Considering ages and stages of myopia progression in a therapeutic timeline
With minimally invasive surgery procedures becoming increasingly popular in glaucoma management, canaloplasty using an ab-interno surgical technique offers enhanced natural aqueous outflow in open-angle glaucoma.
A recent prospective study analysed the relationship between corneo-scleral geometry and the axial length of the eye to develop preliminary prediction models of the axial length of the eye based on clinical data.
For retinal specialists grappling with diseases once thought “untreatable,” gene therapies present a wide range of viable options
Data show transfection in both eyes despite unilateral injection
Nurses and other allied healthcare professionals can safely and effectively deliver intravitreal steroid implants in a clean room setting, which has reduced patient waiting times.
A recently developed tool can help ophthalmologists to assess the quality of findings from real-world studies in retinal diseases. This will help them decide which results are most robust and applicable to their practice.
SS-OCT provides a clear view of the eye’s internal structures and any abnormalities, helping to differentiate benign from malignant lesions.
The healthcare sector has high greenhouse gas emissions, to which ophthalmology is a significant contributor. Reducing waste, reusing instruments and medication and increasing our use of telemedicine can all contribute to reducing the carbon footprint of our specialty.
AnnMarie Hipsley, DPT, PhD, met with Ophthalmology Times Europe to discuss Ace Vision Group's microporation therapeutic technology, used to treat presbyopia.
The IC-8 IOL uses the small-aperture concept to extend cataract patients’ depth of focus. Patients report high approval and reduced spectacle dependence.
Community support is the most important factor in ascertaining effective treatments for paediatric eye diseases.
This article by Liem Trinh, MD highlights his experiences with the AT ELANA® 841P hydrophobic trifocal IOL and the ARTEVO® 750 and ARTEVO® 850 microscopes from ZEISS. Dr. Trinh discusses the benefits of the trifocal design of the AT ELANA 841P IOL and its ability to provide spectacle independence at all distances after cataract surgery. He also shares his positive experiences with the ARTEVO 850 microscope, which offers improved surgical visualization with RGB LED illumination and 3D viewing on a high dynamic range monitor. Additionally, Dr. Trinh discusses the potential benefits of integrated intraoperative optical coherence tomography (OCT) and the redesigned CALLISTO eye user interface.
Understanding vitreomacular interface diseases is key to treatment.
The differential recruitment of the dorsal and ventral visual streams
As OCT-A devices become faster, the algorithms advance and the instrument costs decrease, more widespread utilisation in retina practices is likely.
Mariya Moosajee, MBBS, BSc, PhD, FRCOphth, discusses how Gene Vision is improving patients' lives on a global scale
A case report demonstrates independent effect of GLP-1 receptor agonist
