Clinicians react to the US approval of revakinagene taroretcel-lwey (Encelto; Neurotech Pharmaceuticals) for macular telangiectasia type 2
To date, the suprachoroidal space has not been a feasible route to reduce intraocular pressure in glaucoma. A new device promises to change that.
Two randomised controlled trials, EMGT and UKGTS, have examined the factors affecting the risk of glaucoma progression. Global target IOPs are not the best option for all patients.
Vitrectomy is a tool that can help surgeons curb complications
The link between eye health and mental health may be deeper than previously believed
Dry eye increases susceptibility to psychiatric disorders and chronic pain syndromes, investigators reported at the 2024 AAO meeting
A new amblyopia screening system that can be used on Android devices has performed better than some of the ‘gold standard’ stereotests in recent Hungarian studies.
Ophthalmologists are seeking improved treatment options for uveitis as epidemiological studies demonstrate the scope and sight-stealing burden of the disease.
This year, the COPHy meeting moves beyond retina, addressing uveitis, neuro-ophthalmology and glaucoma in Seville, Spain
A new amblyopia screening system that can be used on Android devices has performed better than some of the ‘gold standard’ stereotests in recent Hungarian studies.
Presbyopia can be treated in emmetropic, myopic and hyperopic patients with refractive errors between +5.75 and -9.00 D using corneal non-linear aspheric ablation profiles to increase the depth of field in both eyes, in combination with micro-monovision. Patient satisfaction with this approach is high.
A corneal refractive technique can combine monovision and extended depth of field to create a wide, seamless range of functional vision. This can provide independence from spectacles.
Intercontinental collaboration is key to unlocking ROP in our lifetime
Collaboration and outside-the-box thinking present significant opportunities for science and industry
In her Kelman Lecture presentation, Bonnie An Henderson, MD, highlights the importance of continuous education for clinicians.
Corneal cross-linking (CXL) is improving all the time, although all protocols retain the basic requirements for oxygen, riboflavin and UV light. Recent developments mean that CXL at the slit lamp is feasible, which will improve access to the procedure.
The Malyugin Ring 2.0 simplifies challenging cases of small pupils with zonulopathy by both stabilising the capsular bag and dilating the pupil.
Recent reports of retinal atrophy have raised concerns on potential long-term safety.
At the ESCRS meeting, Sir Harold Ridley’s legacy was put on display in a pop-up museum installation
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.
Novel treatment results in macular hole closure.
Code-free deep learning models are expected to find applications across a range of areas to improve patient care, increase accessibility to healthcare, accelerate clinical research and enhance medical education.
Surgeons can consider a relatively simple, inexpensive, efficient and accessible incision-free procedure to preserve blebs.
Recent improvements in electroretinography are making the technique more accessible for general use. It has a wide range of clinical applications.
Laser vision advancements have made safe, reliable and stable procedures a reality.
