To report the treatment outcomes and complication rates of stereotactic radiotherapy in management patients with juxtapapillary choroidal melanoma.A retrospective review 64 consecutive melanoma, located within 2 mm optic disc, treated at Princess Margaret Hospital between October 1998 January 2006.The median age was 63 years. The tumour height 4.2 mm, largest basal diameter 9.8 mm. prescribed radiation dose 70 Gy five fractions over 10 days, follow-up 37 months. Post-treatment, actuarial...
Purpose: To investigate the safety and effectiveness of micropulse transscleral cyclophotocoagulation (MPTSCPC) in non-incisional eyes with ocular hypertension (OHT) early, moderate, severe primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG).Methods: Retrospective cohort study that underwent MPTSCPC from 2016 to 2019 at an outpatient clinic Canada.Eyes were excluded if any incisional procedures, except cataract surgery, performed prior treatment.Laser power ranged 900 2500mW.Results: A total 153 93 patients...
Artificial intelligence (AI) development has led to improvements in many areas of medicine. Canada workforce pressures delivering cataract care. A potential solution is using AI technology that can automate care delivery, increase effectiveness and decrease burdens placed on patients the healthcare system. This study assesses use 'Dora', an example assistant able deliver a regulated autonomous, voice-based, natural-language consultation with over telephone. Dora used routine practice UK, but...
Aim: To compare residual astigmatism prediction errors across Barrett toric calculations using predicted posterior corneal (PCA) and PCA measured the IOL Master 700 with total keratometry (IOLM). Methods: A retrospective cohort study was undertaken on patients no other ocular comorbidities that underwent uneventful refractive femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery implantation between May 2019 November 2019. Toric were performed calculator following values: anterior measurements from...
Objective: To evaluate the short- and long-term outcomes of half-dose verteporfin with photodynamic therapy (PDT) in treatment chronic central serous retinopathy (CSR). Design: Retrospective case series. Participants: 45 eyes 39 patients CSR were included. Diagnosis was confirmed by fluorescein angiography persistence subretinal fluid optical coherence tomography for a minimum 3 months duration. Methods: Each patient underwent full-fluence PDT; initial follow-up defined as 6–8 week visit...
To evaluate the effects of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) drops for evaporative dry eye (EDE) disease from meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD).This is a retrospective, consecutive case series 20 eyes 10 patients with EDE MGD treated PRP November 2020 to 2021 at single outpatient clinic in Ontario, Canada. were prepared whole blood using two-step centrifugation method. Patients instructed instill these six times daily 4 weeks. The Canadian Dry Eye Assessment (CDEA) questionnaire score,...
BroadBand light intense pulsed (BBL-IPL) therapy has shown to reduce hordeolum and blepharitis frequency. This study aims evaluate the efficacy safety of BBL-IPL in patients with dry eye disease (DED) from meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD).This is a retrospective, consecutive case series 48 DED MGD who underwent October 2016 January 2019 at single, outpatient clinic Ontario, Canada. Clinical outcomes included first average non-invasive keratograph tear break-up times (NIKBUT), bulbar redness...
This prospective cohort study examined the relationship between diabetic macular edema (DME), retinopathy (DR) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in patients after 1 year of treatment with anti-VEGF injection and/or continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP).The included adults type or 2 diabetes mellitus retinopathy. Polysomnography metrics were measured at baseline. Ophthalmologic baseline, six-month (6m) twelve-month (12m) follow-up. All DME+ received standard care, all OSA+ advised...
To determine astigmatic changes of intrastromal limbal-relaxing incisions (LRIs) performed during femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS).Retrospective case series.Patients undergoing FLACS with adjunctive astigmatism management LRIs were included. All eyes had preoperative corneal cylinder (Kcyl) ≥0.20 D on ocular biometry. An LRI nomogram single, non-paired placed at the 9 mm optical zone was used. Keratometry measured preoperatively, and postoperatively 1 week, month, 3 months...
PURPOSE: To assess corneal morphologic changes and surgically induced astigmatism (SIA) following clear incisions (CCIs) created manually or with the Catalys femtosecond laser (Johnson & Johnson Vision, Santa Ana, CA). METHODS: In this retrospective cohort analysis, patients undergoing laser–assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) manual between June September 2018 from a single surgical center in Toronto, Canada, were considered for inclusion. Postoperative values compared to preoperative...
