Exposure keratopathy is common in critically ill patients, affecting more than half of mechanically ventilated patients the UK [1]. It may progress to sight loss from devastating ocular surface scarring and also lead microbial keratitis. The Royal College Ophthalmologists (RCOphth), collaboration with Intensive Care Society, has endorsed a guideline prevent exposure intensive care unit (ICU), [2]. However, there remains significant variability practice limited awareness regarding existence...
To establish the level of confidence amongst UK ophthalmology specialist registrars (residents) in managing posterior capsule rupture (PCR) during cataract surgery.An online nine-item questionnaire was distributed to all registrars, recruited nationwide via regional representatives. Data collected included stage training, number completed operations, cumulative PCR rate, PCRs independently managed, understanding vitrectomy settings and fluidic parameters access simulation. Respondents...
Although anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) treatment offers better outcomes than the natural history of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (ARMD), a less burdensome, expensive, and more durable is needed.To assess efficacy safety epimacular brachytherapy (EMB) for chronic, active, ARMD.The Macular Epiretinal Brachytherapy vs Ranibizumab (Lucentis) Only Treatment (MERLOT) pivotal device trial was conducted at 24 National Health Service hospitals across UK. Patients who...

Abstract: Walker–Warburg syndrome (WWS) is a disorder characterized by ocular and brain malformations, congenital muscular dystrophy. Retinal malformations are common in WWS; however, bilateral retinal detachment rare occurrence. We present case of newborn baby delivered at 36+3 weeks, who was the first living child consanguineous parents Turkish origin. On antenatal anomaly scans, fetus had hydrocephalus that increased throughout pregnancy, diagnosis hydrancephaly made 36 weeks gestation....
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to assess changes in retinal structure and thickness after subretinal implantation the Retina Implant Alpha IMS (Retina AG, Reutlingen, Germany). PATIENTS METHODS: Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) imaging performed retina anterior microphotodiode array preoperatively, within 6 weeks months ± 1 month implantation. Thickness measurements were using distance tool built-in software. Three each four quadrants on microchip...
Abstract Purpose To determine the feasibility of a definitive study intravitreal ranibizumab to promote clearance persistent diabetic vitreous haemorrhage and thereby avoid vitrectomy. Methods This randomised, double‐masked, placebo‐controlled recruited 24 participants with listed for pars plana Participants were randomised single 0.5‐mg injection or subconjunctival saline injection. The primary outcome measure was number requiring vitrectomy at week 7. Results Eight 12 (66.7%) in group...
An 82-year-old woman with macular degeneration receiving intravitreal bevacizumab, presented 5-months history of muco-purulent blepharo-kerato-conjunctivitis, resistant to multiple topical antibiotics. Visual acuities were 20/25 right and 20/30 left. She had patent nasolacrimal systems, bilateral blepharoptosis, deep superior fornices (21mm right, 22mm left) discharge, upper tarsal papillae, punctate keratitis. Bilateral giant fornix syndrome (GFS) was diagnosed, forniceal swabs grew...

Background/aim To assess the long-term safety and efficacy of epimacular brachytherapy (EMB) for chronic, active, neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). Methods This pivotal, randomised, controlled surgical device trial recruited patients with chronic nAMD receiving intravitreal ranibizumab from 24 UK hospitals. Participants were randomised to either pars plana vitrectomy Gray EMB pro re nata (PRN) (n=224) or PRN monotherapy (n=119). Although masking was not possible, masked...
Mycosis fungoides represents the most common cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, clinically manifested with evolving skin lesions, including patches, plaques, tumors, and erythroderma. Early diagnosis remains difficult to establish because it mimics several benign conditions, but maintaining a high index of suspicion for disease is essential in preventing progression potentially fatal disease. We report case 69-year-old female who presented our dermatology clinic 2018 scaly, indurated, itchy...

We report 13 patients who received ocriplasmin for symptomatic vitreomacular adhesion. Farnsworth-Munsell 100 (FM 100) hue test total error score (TES) increased from baseline to month 1, before recovering at year 1. Ocriplasmin may alter discrimination.This study aimed determine whether intravitreal affects discrimination.Thirteen with adhesion 125 μg. Patients underwent full ocular examination, optical coherence tomography, and FM baseline, 1 week, month, year.Mean age was 74.8 years. The...
