Intravenous drug use (IVDU) is a known risk factor for endogenous endophthalmitis. Endogenous fungal endophthalmitis (EFE) emerging as common problem among this community. We describe the management and visual outcomes of acute IVDU-associated EFE.A prospective consecutive case series 19 patients presenting with presumed EFE from 2001 to 2007 Royal Victorian Eye Ear Hospital was included. All data were collected in standardized manner. Outcome measures included acuity, microbial profiles,...
To audit the information included on GOS 18 forms used by UK optometrists when referring patients to an ophthalmologist.All received in a hospital ophthalmology department over 10-week period were photocopied and categories of presented recorded.A total 444 analysed.

Forty-seven per cent 77) resulted being listed Eighty-two 67)...
To evaluate visual and anatomic outcomes following pars plana vitrectomy intravitreal or subretinal tissue plasminogen activator for submacular hemorrhage in patients with age-related macular degeneration.This was a retrospective study on minimum follow-up of 12 months undertaken at tertiary referral center. Data collected include demographic details, optical coherence tomography changes, surgical complications. Surgical results were compared who age lesion size matched treated anti-vascular...
Abstract Purpose: To assess the information included in optometrist referrals for cataract to Hospital Eye Service with reference recommendations made by Department of Health ‘Action on Cataracts’ and resultant surgical listing rates.

Intraocular lymphomas represent a diverse group of malignant lymphoid neoplasms, characterized by their heterogeneity. These neoplasms can be classified into two main categories: (1) those originating from the vitreoretinal tissue and (2) that emerge within uveal tract [1], [2]. The affecting retina and/or vitreous are considered primary tumors often associated with central nervous system (CNS) disorders Primary (PVRLs) were previously referred to as intraocular (PIOLs). PVRL predominantly...
Endophthalmitis refers to an infection, either bacterial or fungal, occurring within the eye and involving vitreous and/or aqueous humor [1]. Exogenous endophthalmitis is more common form, where microorganisms are introduced into through trauma, surgical procedures, infected cornea. On other hand, endogenous occurs when becomes seeded with via bloodstream. Patients often exhibit symptoms related their underlying systemic although some may present solely It important note that does not act as...
Background: Cataract formation is the most frequent complication associated with pars plana vitrectomy (PPV). A growing trend has emerged for surgeons to perform combined phacovitrectomy rather than a two-step approach, even in absence of cataract. We performed financial analysis epiretinal membrane (ERM). Methods: Patients who underwent ERM over three-year period were included study. Operating time and cost theatre per minute was assessed. Univariate sensitivity examine our findings changes...
