Background/aims To compare the accuracy of 13 formulas for intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation in cataract surgery. Methods In this retrospective interventional case series, optical biometry measurements were entered into these formulas: Barrett Universal II (BUII) with and without anterior chamber depth (ACD) as a predictor, EVO 2.0 ACD Haigis, Hoffer Q, Holladay 1, 2AL, Kane, Næser 2, Pearl-DGS, RBF 2.0, SRK/T, T2 VRF. The mean prediction error (PE), median absolute (MedAE),...
The public health measures imposed in many countries to slow the spread of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak could have negative effects on children's physical and mental health. authors describe four cases acquired concomitant acute esotropia likely caused from excessive application near vision during COVID-19 lockdown.

Aims To explore prognostic multimarker models for progression to macular fibrosis (MF) over 24 months specific type 3 neovascularisation (T3 MNV). Methods This retrospective, exploratory, single-centre, cohort study comprised 65 eyes of 43 Caucasian patients with treatment naive T3 MNV, all a 24-month follow-up post anti-VEGF therapy using strict pro-re-nata (PRN) regimen. Data on demographic features, clinical findings, frequency intravitreal treatments and optical coherence tomography...
To describe a new objective technique of digital image analysis for the quantification and morphological characterization corneal staining in setting dry eye disease (DED), to apply it distinguish Sjögren syndrome (SS) from ocular graft versus-host (oGVHD).Slit-lamp photographs obtained 40 patients with DED (20 SS 20 oGVHD; mean age 60.7 ± 12.3 years) were evaluated. Images subjectively graded using Oxford National Eye Institute (NEI) scales, pattern was classified as micropunctate,...
To analyze epidemiology, clinical features, and surgical outcomes of type III acute acquired concomitant esotropia (Bielschowsky (BE)).
This study aims to characterize the conjunctival flora of patients scheduled for cataract surgery and determine susceptibility profile isolated bacteria several commonly used topical antibiotics. Conjunctival swabs were taken from 44 consecutive (25 males, 19 females; mean age 75.0 ± 12.6 years) who senile at two Italian centers before starting any prophylactic preoperative treatment. Swabs processed detection microbial growth species identification. Selective culture media used, identified...
Abstract Purpose To investigate choroidal abnormalities in paediatric patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 ( NF 1) detected by near‐infrared reflectance NIR ) retinography order to evaluate diagnostic accuracy. Methods Seventy‐eight 1, diagnosed according the National Institutes of Health NIH criteria, and 96 healthy control subjects matched for age were examined. Enrolled under 16 years old. The presence was investigated confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy. Main outcome measure...
<b><i>Purpose:</i></b> The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy ultrasound cyclo-plasty (UCP) for reducing intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with glaucoma. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> This is a multicentre prospective conducted 3 Italian glaucoma centres. UCP performed by EyeOP1, which delivers beams using 6 piezoelectric transducers activated 4/6 s (first generation) or 8 (second generation). Primary outcomes were mean IOP...
Dry eye disease (DED) is a multifactorial that represents one of the most common ophthalmologic conditions encountered in everyday clinical practice. Traditional diagnostic tests for DED, such as subjective questionnaires, tear film break-up time and Schirmer test, are often associated with poor reproducibility reliability, which make diagnosis, follow-up, management challenging. New advances imaging technologies enable objective reproducible measurements DED parameters, thus making...
Photobiomodulation (PBM) has become a promising approach for slowing the progression of early and intermediate dry age-related macular degeneration (dAMD) to advanced AMD. This technique uses light penetrate tissues activate molecules that influence biochemical reactions cellular metabolism. preliminary analysis is aimed at assessing safety, tolerability, short-term effectiveness EYE-LIGHT
