The recent emergence of the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and its resultant human disease, COVID-19, will likely have a significant impact on corneal tissue donor pool. Current recommendations from United States global eye bank associations call for outright avoidance tissues donors recently infected with or exposed to COVID-19. This conservative recommendation is currently appropriate given reported ocular sequelae, tear film viral detectability,...
This study compares the efficacy, safety, and patient-reported outcomes of three intraocular implants (IOL): Tecnis Synergy IOL, AcrySof IQ PanOptix Trifocal, Symfony EDOF IOL. Participants achieving 20/20 or better uncorrected binocular visual acuity were as follows: Synergy-67% distance, 64% intermediate, 47% near; PanOptix-73% 73% 50% Symfony-63% 75% 22% near. demonstrated superior intermediate compared to (p = 0.0182) for those 20/25 better. Both showed superiority over near < 0.0001)....
Recent advancements in the delivery of therapeutics for retinal diseases include development injectable hydrogels, networks one or more hydrophilic polymers that contain a high-volume fraction water. These systems are particular interest due to their biocompatibility, permeability water-soluble metabolites, and function as minimally invasive vehicles. Recently, hydrogels ophthalmic applications have been developed display controlled release factors necessary cellular survival proliferation....
Treatment of mixed astigmatism with laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) is complex as the correction requires flattening cornea one meridian while steepening other meridian. The bitoric technique has become most popular approach and been tested across a variety platforms. This study first to evaluate results treatment using Allegretto WaveLight® EX500.This was single-center, retrospective, noncomparative analysis 400 eyes that underwent LASIK correct for utilizing EX500 excimer laser. Data...
Purpose: In our report, we present a suspected case of donor-derived Acanthamoeba keratitis after deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty. To the authors' knowledge, there have been no confirmed cases transmission through corneal transplantation. Methods: Deep keratoplasty was performed on right eye 33-year-old man with severe bilateral keratoconus and an intolerance to all forms contact lenses. The postoperative visual acuity deteriorated, while inflammation, rising ocular pressure, increasing...
Introduction:Recognizing the growing emphasis on youth emergency preparedness, as seen through increasingly common graduation requirement of CPR training and skill camps, members Harvard CrimsonEMS expanded outreach to Greater Boston high-school students formation Youth Education Task Force.This novel task force seeks create a more medically-literate community fostering preparedness in basic lifesaving skills placing an bystander intervention. Program Development & Implementation:The force,...
Intrastromal corneal ring segments (ICRSs) are an effective treatment for stabilizing and normalizing shape in patients with keratoconus other ectasias. Intraoperative segment perforation through the endothelium into anterior chamber (AC) is uncommon but known complication. However, AC postoperatively exceedingly rare complication only 3 reported cases literature. One case was due to Descemet membrane detachment another ocular trauma. In third case, mechanism unclear. We present fourth of...
