Abstract Purpose To evaluate and compare the visual outcomes of an enhanced monofocal intraocular lens (IOL) with two different IOLs. Setting Eye Clinic, Department Medicine, Surgery Health Sciences, University Trieste, Italy. Design Prospective, single-center, single-masked, randomized controlled clinical study. Methods The study included patients undergoing phacoemulsification IOL implantation. Patients were consecutively by block randomization assigned in a 1:1:1 allocation ratio to three...
This study assessed the European School of Advanced Studies in Ophthalmology (ESASO) classification's prognostic value for diabetic macular edema (DME) predicting intravitreal therapy outcomes. In this retrospective, multicenter study, patients aged > 50 years with type 1 or 2 diabetes and DME received antivascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) agents (ranibizumab, bevacizumab, aflibercept) steroids (dexamethasone). The primary outcome was visual acuity (VA) change post-treatment,...
<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> The production of ultrasonic energy during phacoemulsification is associated with heat generation that could damage ocular tissues, particularly at the corneoscleral wound site. <b><i>Case Presentation:</i></b> This study presents an 89-year-old patient senile hypermature cataract and Fuchs endothelial dystrophy developing severe thermal injury phacoemulsification. At presentation, visual acuity was finger count 40...
Purpose To test reliability and reproducibility of ESASO morphologic OCT-based classification diabetic maculopathy (DM). Methods This is a multi-center cross-sectional study including coordination center (CC) 18 participating centers (PCs). After instruction on the correct use Classification, validation process was carried out in two consecutive stages. In first retrospective phase, we evaluated concordance between PCs CC staging OCT images collected during PCs’ daily activity (608 images)....
Purpose: to investigate the reproducibility and reliability of OCT-A vascular measurements using Heidelberg Spectralis II OCT-A. Methods: a prospective study involving single eye patients aged 18 or older with no ocular disease. In order first second scans, coefficient variation foveal avascular zone (FAZ) vessel density (VD) in superficial (SCP), intermediate (ICP) deep capillary plexus (DCP) were calculated. Results: A total 75 eyes included study. The mean FAZ scan was 0.36 × 0.13 mm2...
To investigate the antimicrobial activity of a preservative-free 0.6% povidone-iodine eye drop as an antiseptic procedure in decreasing conjunctival bacterial load eyes scheduled for intravitreal treatment and to compare its efficacy untreated fellow used control group. Prospective cohort analysis which 208 patients received drops three times day days before injection. Before after prophylactic treatment, swab was collected from both study contralateral eye, control. The inoculated on...
Purpose To analyse the long anatomical and functional outcome of a subgroup DICAT II study cohort, consisting 26 patients undergoing cataract surgery withdrawn from for clinically significant worsening early diabetic macular edema (DME). Materials Patients who underwent DME with at least 12 months follow–up after dropout. The population was divided into two groups according to clinical evaluation one-year follow-up: ongoing treatment (Treatment group, TG) no longer treated (Non Treatment...
It is known that cataract extraction associated with a significant reduction in intraocular pressure, especially narrow angled eyes; however, the modifications of anterior segment parameters this phenomenon have still not been completely defined. The purpose study was to evaluate changes anatomy and pressure after surgery non-glaucomatous eyes.This retrospective case series included 64 eyes consecutive patients who underwent phacoemulsification lens implantation. Anterior were assessed...
