Myopia is by far the most common human eye disorder that known to have a clear, albeit poorly defined, heritable component. In this study, we describe an autosomal-recessive syndrome characterized high myopia and sensorineural deafness. Our molecular investigation in 3 families led identification of homozygous nonsense mutations (p.R181X, p.S297X, p.Q414X) SLIT NTRK-like family, member 6 (SLITRK6), leucine-rich repeat domain transmembrane protein. All mutant SLITRK6 proteins displayed...
The aim of this study is to compare the outcomes micropulse transscleral cyclophotocoagulation between primary open-angle glaucoma, pseudoexfoliation and other types secondary glaucoma.Outcomes 96 consecutive patients with refractory, end-stage glaucoma treated were retrospectively reviewed. Follow-up examinations performed on a regular basis until 12 months postoperatively. Surgical successes defined as maintaining intraocular pressure ⩽18 mmHg ⩾20% reduction in (criteria A), ⩽15 ⩾25% B),...
The objective of our study was to provide a comparative assessment previously reported magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) parameters in primary and secondary pseudotumor cerebri (PTC) patients, examine their diagnostic contribution, evaluate association with symptoms, neuro-ophthalmological findings, laboratory results, cerebrospinal fluid characteristics.Twenty-eight consecutive patients PTC were included the study. Age- sex-matched 20 individuals normal neurologic examination served as...
The role of decreased levels protein C, S and antithrombin III were investigated in patients with branch central retinal vein occlusion.Forty-five occlusion 20 healthy subjects as a control group was studied. Fourteen (31%) had 31 (69%) occlusion. concentrations measured.Plasma not reduced the group. Six 14 cases 3 C. One 1 S. Antithrombin patient occlusions. We found statistically significant differences for number C deficiency between (p<0.05).Deficiency anticoagulant proteins, especially...
To estimate the incidence and factors that may play a role in etiology of eyelid malpositions after cataract extraction.We followed up 124 patients for six months extraction. Palpebral aperture, levator function, height upper lid crease, lower laxity position punctums were recorded preoperatively postoperatively. Post-cataract ptosis was defined as 2 mm or greater drop margin correcting any change fellow eye.None developed ectropion entropion, but five (4%) punctal surgery. The post-cataract...
The 677 C-T polymorphism in the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene is associated with hyperhomocysteinaemia. This study aimed to investigate frequency of MTHFR and homocysteine (Hcy) levels Turkish patients pseudoexfoliation (PEX).This prospective consisted 60 PEX glaucoma, 16 syndrome 34 controls. All control subjects were origin. participants underwent a complete ophthalmic examination. Plasma Hcy measured using fluorescence polarization immunoassay (Abbott Diagnostics)....
Recent reports have demonstrated that refrigerated bevacizumab can be stored for up to 3 weeks at 4 degrees C without loss of efficacy. There been no previous addressing bevacizumab's sterility when and used as multiple doses from a single-use vial.To evaluate the vial.Four groups vials were simulate storage use conditions bevacizumab. Each group contained 11 0.2 mL One sample each was cultured once day 37 10 days; one left 15 days. MacConkey agar, blood thioglycollate broth, Sabouraud...
Purpose: To determine the changes in anterior chamber flare and central macular thickness (CMT) under topical antiglaucomatous therapy. Methods: This study included 121 eyes of 73 patients 36 18 controls. Glaucoma were divided into 3 groups (timolol maleate, latanoprost, bimatoprost). Control did not receive any medications. Flare CMT measurements performed at baseline follow-up visits (15th day, 1st, 3rd, 6th, 12th month). Results: Statistically significant increases detected values...
PurposeTo evaluate the risk factors for posterior capsule rupture with or without vitreous loss (PCR±VL) in extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE). MethodsThe charts of 2794 consecutive patients who had ECCE intraocular lens implantation between January 1992 and December 1997 were reviewed retrospectively. Probable included age, sex, operated eye (right left), presence diabetes mellitus, systemic hypertension, history other (if operated), type cataract, axial length eye, preoperative...
<i>Background:</i> To evaluate the optic nerve head by means of Heidelberg retina tomograph (HRT) in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). <i>Methods:</i> The study group consisted 47 DM [group 1; 29 without diabetic retinopathy (DR) and 18 non-proliferative DR] 50 normal subjects (group 2). All controls underwent a complete ophthalmological examination, topography both eyes was evaluated using HRT-I. One eye these cases randomly selected for statistical analysis....
To evaluate the periocular changes due to topical bimatoprost and latanoprost use investigate their effects on lacrimal drainage system.All participants (69 eyes of 43 patients, 52 26 controls) were classified into three groups: (0.03%) users, (0.005%) healthy controls. Each patient was examined before prostaglandin therapy, then at first, third, sixth, twelfth month therapy. Palpebral fissure height, upper eyelid crease, levator function measured, system irrigation performed. Periocular...
To assess reading performance in patients with mild to moderate primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), and determine the relationship between ability visual field (VF), microperimetry, optical coherence tomography (OCT) parameters.
Précis: In addition to standard automated perimetry tests, contrast sensitivity testing and macular analyses may predict changes in the quality of life patients at different stages glaucoma. Purpose: To examine relationship between functional structural tests visual function 25-item National Eye Institute-Visual Function Questionnaire (NEI-VFQ-25) 36-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) with Materials Methods: Standard optical coherence tomography scans, (CS) were prospectively performed...
To investigate the ultrastructural changes in iris and corneal tissue induced by intracameral 1% lidocaine infusion applied during lens extraction a rabbit model.The study was conducted using New Zealand rabbits. Eight rabbits received 0.2 mL hydrochloride intracamerally performed, keeping posterior capsule intact. After extraction, cornea samples were obtained for electron microscopy. eyes included as control group.Electron microscopy revealed morphological abnor-malities both of injected...
Purpose To report a patient with Behçet disease presenting acute optic neuropathy. Methods A 47-year-old man was admitted to the authors' clinic owing sudden visual loss in left eye. Ophthalmologic and systemic examinations were performed. Results Visual acuity 4/10 Fundus examination demonstrated swollen disc blurred margins. There relative afferent pupil defect same Mega-dose corticosteroid treatment started diagnosis of Ocular findings resolved within 2 weeks. Conclusions rarely presents
To evaluate the frequency of glaucoma in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) using and not continuous positive airway pressure treatment.This prospective study included 59 diagnosed OSAS based on Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI). were divided into 3 groups according to their AHI scores: 5-15 was considered mild (19 patients), 16-30 moderate (16 >30 (24 patients) severe. Twenty-eight (47.5%) had been treatment. The control group 19 healthy subjects. Retinal nerve fiber layer...
