In vivo confocal microscopy (IVCM) is a useful tool to image the cornea at a cellular level both in ophthalmic clinical practice and research. IVCM is used to study corneal diseases such as ectasias, keratitis, Dry eye disease (DED) and dystrophies [1].
Cataract extraction is the most commonly performed ophthalmic surgical procedure in India(1). In the year 2000 approximately 3.5 million cataract surgeries were performed in India(2).
The word glaucoma came from the Greek word ‘glaukos’ which meant ‘clouded with a blue-green hue’. In the Hippocratic Aphorisms the term glaucoma was used to describe blindness coming on in advancing years associated with a glazed appearance of the pupil. The Hippocratic writings make no clear distinction between cataract and glaucoma.
To study the improvement in NPC(Near Point of convergence) , Positive fusional vergence (PFV) reserve and CISS(Convergence insufficiency symptom survey) scores using VTS 4 as in office vision therapy for Convergence InsufficiencyVTS 4(Vision Therapy System-4).
Gnathostomiasis is a rare parasitic infestation of humans who become incidental hosts after intake of undercooked or raw meat of the definitive host .
FP102 : Diagnostic Value of Optical Coherence Tomography and Electroretinography Parameters in Primary Open Angle GlaucomaTo find diagnostic value of optical coherence tomography (OCT) and electroretinography (ERG) parameters in primary open angle glaucoma (POAG).
To describe the pattern of intermediate uveitis (IU) in North East Indian patients.
In the hospital environment, surfaces with which hands come in contact are often contaminated with nosocomial pathogens, and these inanimate surfaces serve as fomites for cross-transmission.
The term coloboma is derived from the Greek termkoloboma, meaning mutilated or curtailed. The malformation refers to a notch, gap, hole or fissure in any of the ocular structures. (1)
Cataract is the main cause of curable blindness worldwide, with developing world accounting for approximately three fourth of this blindness.1,2 Cataract has been reported to be responsible for 50-80% of bilaterally blind in India. There are 100 million eyes with cataract causing vision of <6/60 and number is increasing because of population growth and increasing life expectancy.3
Refraction is an art and mastering it requires patience and passion. It is not simply prescribing glasses but fine tuning your refraction to match the patient’s needs and expectations,
Vernal, derived from the Greek word “Occurring in Spring” is a form of recurrent, bilateral allergic conjunctivitis caused by hypersensitivity reaction to exogenous allergens.
Outcomes afterPhaco versus FemtoLaser-Assisted Phacoemulsification in Shallow Anterior Chambers
Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ)and Chloroquine (CQ) are widely used for the treatment of autoimmune diseases like Systemic Lupus Erythematosus(SLE), Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) and other related inflammatory and dermatological conditions.
The human eye undergoes extensive growth in the postnatal period1. The earlier in life, the greater the absolute and relative increase; about two thirds of the postnatal ocular axial length increase takes place within the first24-30 months of life;
FP1087 : Realtime, Dynamic IOP During Phacoemulsification Using 2 Systems: Randomized, Clinical Tria
To record realtime, dynamic intraocular pressure (IOP) changes during phacoemulsification using an IOP-based fluidic system, and to compare it with a gravity-based fluidics system
We studied whether topical medication in primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) eyes altered the corneal stiffness using air-puff applanation data analyzed using viscoelastic model and inverse Finite element modeling (FEM).
Posterior capsule opacification (PCO) is the most common complication followingcataract surgery and is generally treated with Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy. Several factors play a role in the formation of posterior capsule opacification (PCO) such as variations in surgical technique, patient characteristics, lens design, design of the edge of the lens and lens material used.8-10A complete 360-degree cover of the anterior capsulorhexis over the intraocular lens (IOL) optic also influences PCO development.11-14
To compare the development of posterior capsule opacification (PCO) between eyes with and without posterior capsule plaque after single-piece hydrophobic acrylic intraocular lens (IOL) implantation 5 years postoperatively.
Descemet membrane detachment (DMD) is a known complication after cataract surgery. However it is usually noticed intra-operatively or in the early post-operative period. Late onset DMD after cataract surgery is seldom reported.1-3 Here we report a rare case of late onset spontaneous DMD with fluid filled in the space created by the separation, along with its anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) documentation and treatment.
Keratoconus is a corneal disease characterized by progressive thinning and protrusion of cornea.1In patients with progressive keratoconus with a clear central cornea and thinnest corneal thickness >400 microns, corneal cross-linking (KXL) can reduce the risk of progression.2 Keratoconus is a localized disease hence the treatment should be localized and not uniform.3 However, the mechanisms underlying the focal disease and the effect of the molecular factors on treatment outcomes remain unknown.
Superior limbic keratoconjunctivitis is an uncommon chronic inflammation of the superior limbus and superior bulbar and tarsal conjunctiva. It affects one or both eyes and is most commonly seen in middle aged women.
To assess the on road visual acuity of heavy vehicle drivers
Masquerade syndromes are disorders that can present with intraocular inflammation and are often misdiagnosed as a chronic idiopathic uveitis. The term “Masquerade Syndrome” was first used in 1967 to describe a case of conjunctival carcinoma that manifested as chronic conjunctivitis.
Intratarsal keratinous cyst(ITKC) is the third common cause of tarsal swelling after chalazion &sebaceous cell carcinoma.
Posterior Chamber IOL subluxation or dislocation as a late complication of cataract surgery is uncommon but represents one of the most serious complications & has been reported with increasing frequency in recent years.1-4 The incidence of surgery specifically due to late dislocated IOL is 0.032–0.28%.5-6
Amblyopia is defined as unilateral or bilateral reduction in best corrected central visual acuity caused by form vision deprivation and/or abnormal binocular interaction, without any visible organic cause to commensurate with visual loss
Posterior capsule opacification (PCO) is the most common and amblyogenic complication after pediatric cataract surgery. Amongst the several foldable IOLs, hydrophobic acrylic material is proven to be the most biocompatible in children as well as adults. With a vast array of foldable hydrophobic acrylic IOLs of different manufacturers now available, we decided to compare some of them on their effect on the visual axis opacification (VAO) and compatibility after pediatric cataract surgery.
