To investigate whether visual disability which is known to accumulate by poor recovery from optic neuritis (ON) attacks can be lessened early treatment, we investigated the time symptom onset high-dose IV methylprednisolone (IVMP) affected recovery.A retrospective study was performed in a consecutive cohort of patients following their first aquaporin-4 (AQP4)-IgG or myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG)-IgG-ON. Best-corrected acuity (BCVA) ON eyes at 3 months (BCVA3mo) correlated with...
The number of intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) injections has increased to a point that they are now second only cataract surgery as the most common treatment in tertiary ophthalmic centres across Europe and United States (Holz et al. 2005). pain endured during procedure may affect their overall comfort reduce compliance (Cintra 2009) which prove critical diseases require recurring injections. Therefore, purpose this study was evaluate correlation between...
Aim To identify risk factors for the development of dupilumab-induced ocular surface disease (DIOSD) in adult patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) and describe outcomes treatment. Methods A retrospective institutional cohort study performed at Rabin Medical Center, Petach Tikva, Israel. Adult AD who received dupilumab from March 2018 to June 2019 were included. Demographics, severity scores, blood IgE levels, previous keratoconjunctivitis (AKC), dermatological response dupilumab,...
Purpose: To identify preoperative and intraoperative factors affecting breakthrough corneal haze incidence after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) with mitomycin C (MMC). Methods: In this retrospective study of PRK performed at the Care Vision Refractive Laser Center, Tel Aviv, Israel, a total 7535 eyes (n = 3854 patients; mean age ± SD, 26 6 years; 55% men) underwent MMC application. Patients histories pathology or surgery were excluded. Incidence, time onset, severity documented on...
Abstract Purpose To determine the efficacy of combination povidone‐iodine (PVP‐I) 1.0% eyedrops and dexamethasone 0.1% in treatment adenoviral keratoconjunctivitis. Materials methods In a prospective, randomized, controlled, double‐blinded clinical trial patients with recent keratoconjunctivitis (diagnosed clinically confirmed by PCR ), we randomly divided into three groups: study group – received PVP‐I 0.1%, control 1 2 lubricating (hypromellose 0.3%). The was administered four times day...
Purpose: To study the correlation between subretinal hyperreflective material (SHRM) seen on spectral domain optical coherence tomography at baseline and visual outcomes after intravitreal bevacizumab injection in neovascular age-related macular degeneration. Methods: Consecutive patient charts with treatment-naive center-involved degeneration treated 3 monthly bevacizumab's, continued as needed, from 2011 to 2014 were reviewed. Baseline SHRM parameters (height, width, area, reflectivity,...
To determine the factors associated with retreatment after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for myopic eyes modern LASIK era.Care-Vision Laser Centers, Tel-Aviv, Israel.Retrospective cohort study.All cases of performed between January 2005 and December 2012 were analyzed according to whether they had refractive surgery.The study evaluated 9177 right consecutive cases. The mean preoperative subjective spherical equivalent astigmatism -3.30 diopters (D) ± 1.53 (SD) (range -0.50 -12.00 D)...
To identify the potential risk factors that increase likelihood of requiring retreatment after refractive surgery.This retrospective study included patients who underwent laser in situ keratomileusis or photorefractive keratectomy between January 2005 and December 2012 at Care-Vision Laser Centers, Tel-Aviv, Israel. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to whether they additional surgery (retreatment) during period.Overall, 41,504 eyes (n = 21,313) final analysis this study....
Purpose: To determine the factors associated with clinically significant dry eye after keratorefractive surgery. Methods: This is a large database retrospective study that included consecutive cases of myopic laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) or photorefractive keratectomy performed between 2008 and 2016 at Care-Vision Laser Center, Israel. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to whether they developed eye. Results: A total 25,317 right eyes patients, mean age 27.0 ± 8.3 years,...
The cell fate decisions of stem cells (SCs) largely depend on signals from their microenvironment (niche). However, very little is known about how biochemical niche cues control behavior in vivo. To address this question, we focused the corneal epithelial SC model which niche, as limbus, spatially segregated differentiation compartment. We report that unique biomechanical property limbus supports nuclear localization and function Yes-associated protein (YAP), a putative mediator...
Purpose: To report our experience with Descemet stripping only (DSO) for the treatment of Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy. Methods: Thirteen eyes 9 patients symptomatic dystrophy underwent a 4 mm central Descemetorhexis without graft implantation between June 2017 and July 2020. All had confluent guttata, undetectable cell count by specular microscopy, healthy peripheral endothelium. In 6 eyes, procedure was combined phacoemulsification intraocular lens implantation. Eight were treated...
Purpose: To compare outcomes between patients treated with a single cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive (CTA) patch for corneal thinning or perforation and those requiring multiple CTA applications. Methods: We conducted single-center, comparative cohort study of either applications in Toronto, Canada, 2006 2024. Primary were the need penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at final follow-up. Associations number baseline characteristics, analyzed using univariable...
Background/Objectives: To compare the visual and refractive outcomes of myopic patients undergoing high astigmatic photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) surgery with without pupillary decentration treatment. Methods: In this retrospective study, we reviewed medical records who underwent PRK for astigmatism (>3 diopters [D]) between January 2013 December 2023. The were divided into two groups based on whether surgeon applied during surgery. Preoperative, intraoperative, postoperative...
PURPOSE: To compare the visual and refractive results obtained after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) in patients who underwent one of three different epithelial removal techniques. METHODS: The authors reviewed medical files consecutive eyes with myopia myopic astigmatism that were treated during a 10-year period by mechanical PRK, alcohol-assisted or transepithelial PRK (in phototherapeutic mode), observed for more than 1 year. RESULTS: A total 3,417 (3,417 eyes) included this study. At 3...
Purpose: To identify risk factors associated with postoperative graft detachment after Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK). Methods: In this retrospective institutional cohort study, the study group included all consecutive eyes that underwent primary DSAEK between January 2005 and October 2015 at Villa Serena-Villa Igea private hospitals (Forlì, Italy) developed (n = 45). The control during same period did not develop 1167). main outcome measure was whether or...
To study the ultimate growth variables of children with asthma we analysed military medical records 54,041 boys and 38,102 girls at age 17 years. History was found in 2252 1158 girls, who were then categorised according to three grades severity. Analysis their made separately for each sex grade severity clinical disease. Boys suffered from mild that subsided before adolescence significantly taller, heavier, fatter than respective controls. There a slight decrement all correlation increased...
