Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate the measurement intraocular pressure (IOP) using a new induction/impact rebound tonometer (ICare®) compared with Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT). We also aimed quantify systematic and random errors (bias) 2 methods, sensitivity specificity ICare® in identifying patients 21 mmHg or more measured GAT, influence corneal thickness on IOP tonometers. Methods values obtained instruments 97 patients. Results Analysis based Bland Altman method...
Purpose: To determine whether there were ocular surface changes in glaucomatous patients treated with preservatives beta-blockers who switched to preservative-free beta-blockers. Methods: This was a prospective, longitudinal, open-labeled study. One hundred thirty-two primary open angle glaucoma preserved beta-blocker enrolled. All the underwent perimetric and gonioscopic examination, complete ophthalmologic intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements, evaluation of surface, Schirmer's test,...
Purpose To make a visual field retrospective analysis on group of patients with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and to evaluate whether different refractive errors could have progression the 30° central sensitivity. Methods A total 110 POAG (52 men 58 women) were included in study. All divided into four subgroups based error. The all was assessed by an Octopus every 6 months, for 837 fields examined. resulting data analyzed PERIDATA Windows 1.7 TREND function. Mean defect (MD) loss...
Abstract Objectives To evaluate the 1-year effectiveness and safety of XEN45, either alone or in combination with phacoemulsification, glaucoma patients. Methods This multicentre, prospective, observational study included consecutive eyes patients from Italian XEN-Glaucoma Treatment Registry (XEN-GTR) who underwent XEN45 at least 1 year follow-up. Surgical success was defined as intraocular pressure (IOP) < 18 mmHg ≥20% reduction preoperative IOP, over Results Two hundred thirty-nine (239...
To evaluate peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer, macular and ganglion cell layer-inner plexiform layer thickness analyze their correlations in adult patients with neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1) disease-free controls.This cross-sectional study was performed at the Azienda Policlinico Umberto I, University of Rome "La Sapienza." All participants underwent complete ophthalmologic examination. Spectral domain optical coherence tomography used to obtain segmentation measurements assess 1,000...
<b><i>Purpose:</i></b> To evaluate the efficacy of one intravitreal injection dexamethasone (Ozurdex®; Allergan, Inc., Irvine, Calif., USA) in serous macular detachment (SMD) eye, associated with bilateral central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) a patient affected by Waldenström's macroglobulinemia (WM). <b><i>Patients and Methods:</i></b> A female patient, WM, complained progressive decrease visual acuity, mainly left eye (LE). SMD LE CRVO was...
<h3>Aim</h3> To examine the level of agreement among nine clinicians in assessing progressive deterioration visual field (VF) overview using three different methods analysis. <h3>Methods</h3> Each was assessed by Humphrey Field Analyzer (HFA), program 24-2 SITA Standard. Nine expert progression status each series HFA 'overview printouts' (HFA OP), Guided Progression Analysis (GPA) and (GPA2). VF were presented random order, but patient9s remained chronological order within a given series....
Idiopathic juxtafoveolar retinal telangiectasia (IJRT) type 1 represents an uncommon cause of congenital unilateral visual loss and it typically affects males. Decrease in acuity is caused by serous lipid exudation into the fovea with cystoid macular edema. In some cases, spontaneous resolution may be observed, but when there a progressive acuity, laser photocoagulation often necessary. This treatment not always successful therapy for this condition still controversial.A 57-year-old man...
To describe an 8-year-old girl with diagnosis of Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) presenting glaucoma, abnormal iris vessels, diffuse choroidal hemangioma, and small white dot-shaped "microdrusen-like" alterations the retina in right eye.Complete ophthalmological examination was performed slit-lamp anterior segment assessment fundus ophthalmoscopy. Near infrared reflectance (NIR) enhanced depth imaging (EDI) spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) were carried out.Microdrusen-like...
The authors report an unusual case of Parry-Romberg syndrome (PRS). Magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography scan the craniofacial region surgical correction enophthalmos were performed. Results after operative intervention included persistent palpebral edema ecchymosis transient choroid vasculitis right eye, highlighted with echography fluorescein angiography. fundus oculi examination showed retinal folds. Immunological test results weakly positive. conclude enophthalmos,...
To determine learning effect in healthy patients without perimetric experience, tested with the frequency doubling technology perimetry, new model Matrix.Frequency 30-2 threshold mode was performed on 37 subjects. Each subject twice different sessions. The test always began right eye (RE) and continued left (LE). evaluate results of REs at first session were compared those LE. following parameters evaluated: foveal (FT), reliability indexes, mean defect (MD), pattern standard deviation...
Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare 4 different discriminant analysis formulas the new Glaucoma Probability Score (GPS) for detection morphometric optic nerve head changes in chronic open-angle glaucoma. Methods This is a prospectively planned cross-sectional study. Two hundred fourteen consecutive eyes were recruited into For each patient, evaluated by slit lamp examination, visual fields assessed Humphrey Field Analyzer 750 (HFA, Inc, San Leandro, CA), using standard...
Aims To investigate the effect of fundus tracking perimetry on structure–function relationship in glaucoma. Methods Perimetric data were acquired with Humphrey Field Analyzer (HFA) and Compass perimeter (CMP, equipped tracking). We included from 696 eyes 360 healthy people 711 434 patients glaucoma original study, for which circumpapillary retinal nerve fibre layer optical coherence tomography scan (Cp-RNFL) was available. explored using both global indices (mean deviation average Cp-RNFL...
This retrospective study aimed to determine how often a perimetric examination should be carried out in order identify visual field (VF) changes patients with relatively early manifestation glaucoma.Patients included had recent of primary open-angle glaucoma. Patients minimum follow-up 5 years and seven VF tests were included. Statistical analysis was performed verify the trend variations mean defect (MD) over time (PeriData). The results subjected t-test for comparative progression time....

In normal patients the rim had a characteristic configuration with width being broadest in inferior disc region, followed by superior, nasal, and temporal sector. The aim of this study was to assess whether shape as measured Heidelberg Retina Tomograph 3 (HRT3) ISN'T rule or any other specific distribution pattern.This is prospectively planned cross-sectional study. Two hundred twenty-six healthy eyes were recruited into All who included ocular examination, an intraocular pressure less than...
<b><i>Purpose:</i></b> To evaluate the efficacy of 2 dexamethasone intravitreal implants and 1 ranibizumab injection after a bilateral postoperative complication cataract surgery as pseudophakic cystoid macular edema. <b><i>Patients Methods:</i></b> A 70-year-old male patient with systemic hypertension developed progressive edema (CME) in both eyes starting between 10 20 days surgery. Two were administered; first right eye (RE) then left (LE)....
Carotid cavernous fistulas (CCF) are vascular communications between the carotid artery and sinus. Ophthalmologists called to diagnose manage condition in cases that present with ocular features. A 73-year-old female was referred our glaucoma center clinic. Eight years before, she had started receiving medication for undergone laser iridotomy, but a satisfactory management of intraocular pressure (IOP) not been achieved. The patient complaining intermittent diplopia, bilateral proptosis,...
