Systemic polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) were shown to improve the symptoms of dry eye syndrome due their anti-inflammatory effects. This study evaluated in vitro effects PUFAs on human corneal epithelial (HCE) cells.HCE cells incubated for 2 hours with different concentrations PUFAs: alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), gamma-linolenic (GLA), and linoleic (LA). Oleic (OA) dexamethasone (DM) served as negative positive controls, respectively. Cells stimulated either polyinosinic:polycytidylic...
PurposeThe aim was to determine the extent of daily disposable contact lens prescribing worldwide and characterise associated demographics fitting patterns.MethodsUp 1,000 survey forms were sent fitters in up 40 countries between January March every year for five consecutive years (2007 2011). Practitioners asked record data relating first 10 fits or refits performed after receiving form. Survey collected since 1996 also analysed seven nations assess trends that time.ResultsData relation...
Introduction: divergence insufficiency esotropia is a common cause for acquired and diplopia in adults. We present novel procedure, superior plication of the lateral rectus using non-absorbable sutures, to address this condition analyze surgical outcomes. Methods: This retrospective cohort analysis. Adult patients operated on by single surgeon adult-onset between 1/2022 6/2023 were included. Demographic medical histories, as well measurements deviation preoperatively postoperatively...
Introduction The current case series presents the triangular suture technique (TST) for managing intraocular lens (IOL) subluxation in pseudoexfoliation (PXF) syndrome patients, a condition increasing risk of IOL dislocation post-cataract surgery. includes three PXF patients treated with TST dislocated IOLs. Case description first is an 88-years old woman recurrent post-Hoffman pocket fixation. resulted successful centration and significant visual acuity improvement, uncorrected (UCVA)...
ABSTRACT This case study describes the rehabilitation efforts of a 25-year-old male reserve officer who sustained penetrating intraocular metallic foreign body (IOFB) injury to his right eye during military conflict. Penetrating ocular trauma can lead severe tissue deformities, scarring, permanent visual impairment, and long-term complications like infection hypotension. The patient’s initial presentation revealed vision loss, pain, irritation, sensation, discomfort in eye. Diagnostic...
PurposeTo investigate the effectiveness of a novel spectacle lens designed to slow progression myopia in children.DesignA prospective, randomized, double blind clinical trial.MethodsOne hundred twenty-six Israeli children aged 6-13 years with spherical equivalent (SER) refractive errors –0.5 –6.25 diopters (D) were randomized into either Shamir Myopia Control (SMC) design group or conventional single-vision lenses (SVL), control group. Outcomes measured changes axial length and cycloplegic...
The COVID-19 pandemic of 2020 and its' accompanied lockdowns impacted the entire globe in ways world is only beginning to comprehend. In Israel, children age 9-15 had not been a frontal classroom socially restricted from March till 2021. Fourteen these that under myopia control treatment which effective prior were included this retrospective study learn if their continued stay control, or unique environmental modifications affected progression. results showed average increase spherical...
This study evaluated the anti-inflammatory effects of Resolvin-D1 (RV-D1) and its mechanism action in human corneal epithelial (HCE) cells.HCE cells were incubated with different concentrations RV-D1 for time periods. Oleic acid (OA) Dexamethasone (DM) served as negative positive controls, respectively. Cells stimulated polyriboinosinic:polyribocytidylic acids (poly I:C). The protein contents mRNA expression levels Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), Interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β IL-8 multiplex...
Objectives: To assess the decrease in myopia progression and rebound effect using topical low-dose atropine compared to a combined treatment with contact lenses for myopic control. Methods: This retrospective review study included 85 children aged 10.34 ± 2.27 (range 6 15.5) who were followed over three years. All had minimum increase of 1.00 D year prior treatment. The divided into two groups control group. One group 29 an average prescription 4.81 2.12 (sphere equivalent (SE) range...
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are recognized as important contributors to the initiation and modulation of inflammatory response in eye. This study investigated precise expression patterns functionality TLRs human corneal epithelial cells (HCE) conjunctival fibroblasts (HCF).The cell surface 2-4, TLR7 TLR9 HCE HCF was examined by flow cytometry with or without stimulation lipopolysaccharide (LPS) polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid (poly I:C). The mRNA determined real-time PCR. protein content...
