To report long-term biometric and refractive outcomes in a group of Danish children after surgery for childhood cataract....
Children between 7 and 18 years who had undergone uni- or bilateral cataract surgery at the Department of Ophthalmology, Rigshospitalet, Denmark, were examined in this cross-sectional study. Swept sou...
We included 56 children in the study with a median age at surgery of 43.8 months (1.6-137.6). The amount of higher order aberrations was significantly increased in operated eyes (median root mean squa...
Eyes operated for childhood cataract have higher order aberrations compared with non-operated eyes. Higher order aberrations are complex refractive errors that cannot be corrected by normal lenses and...

Cross-sectional, with a nationally representative sample....
We used publicly available data from the 2008, 2016, and 2017 National Health Interview Survey data sets. Outcome measures included self-reported prevalence for ever been diagnosed with cataract, visi...
A total of 81,551 participants were included, who were predominantly between 18 and 44 years of age (49.6%), female (51.7%), and White (74.8%). Multivariable regression models with age as a covariate ...
Several SDOH factors were associated with disparities in rates of cataract-related outcomes. These findings highlight the importance of ophthalmologists screening for social risks in patients with cat...
To evaluate differences in log MAR best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) improvement and postoperative central foveal thickness (CFT) and choroidal thickness (CT) changes between conventional phacoemuls...
This was a retrospective and observational study. One hundred and two eyes of 102 patients with high-myopia cataracts were examined. CPS was performed in 54 eyes, and FLACS was performed in 48 eyes. A...
The logMAR BCVA improved significantly after surgery in both groups (both P < 0.001), but no difference was observed in BCVA improvement between the groups (P = 0.554). Moreover, no significant differ...
FLACS was not superior to CPS in improving BCVA but had less impact on SFCT in the treatment of high-myopia cataracts. Eyes with a longer AL, worse preoperative logMAR BCVA and thinner SFCT had a high...
Image-to-image translation methods can address the lack of diversity in publicly available cataract surgery data. However, applying image-to-image translation to videos-which are frequently used in me...
We introduce a motion-translation module that translates optical flows between domains to impose such constraints. We combine it with a shared latent space translation model to improve image quality. ...
Our proposed method produces more consistent translations than state-of-the-art baselines. Moreover, it stays competitive in terms of the per-image translation quality. We further show the benefit of ...
The proposed module increases the temporal consistency of translated sequences. Furthermore, imposed temporal constraints increase the usability of translated data in downstream tasks. This allows ove...
To investigate the management of patients undergoing cataract surgery in Italy....
Italian ocular surgeons, members of the Italian Association of Cataract and Refractive Surgery (AICCER), were invited to participate to this survey....
Participants had to respond to a questionary including a series of practical questions concerning the management of patients undergoing cataract surgery....
A designed questionnaire explored the main issues concerning the practical problems involved in managing patients undergoing cataract surgery. The questionnaire was sent by e-mail and analyzed by desc...
Preoperative prophylaxis was performed by most surgeons. After surgery, several products were used, even simultaneously. Fixed antibiotic-corticosteroid combination (87.2%; 89) and NSAIDs (88.2; 90) w...
This survey confirmed a discrete adherence to the main guidelines but at the same time highlights a discrete inhomogeneity in the use of medications, duration of treatments, and follow-up visits. For ...
Cataract is the leading cause of blindness worldwide and surgery can restore vision in most patients. Some patients have little access to surgical services due to lack of cataract surgeons and the una...
We conducted a retrospective cohort study to analyze patients' hand-written medical records and electronic outpatient record between January 2005 and December 2019 at two rural health clinics in South...
In total, 34,601 patients (49,942 eyes) underwent cataract surgery by non-ophthalmologist physicians from 2005 to 2019.Visual acuity was clearly documented in 38,251 eyes. Before surgery, the unaided ...
Non-ophthalmologist physicians trained for cataract surgeries in rural clinics can improve cataract related visual acuity and basic eye care to the local population....
Cataract is the leading cause of visual impairment and blindness among older adults worldwide, that can be corrected through surgical interventions. However, diagnosis and treatment bias can be observ...
An analysis based on a survey among 4,905 participants of the nationwide PolSenior study conducted in 2008-2009, and 5,031 participants of PolSenior2 conducted one decade later to assess the health of...
Cataract diagnosis was declared by 25.5 and 28.2% of the study population in PolSenior and PolSenior2 surveys, respectively. Out of those diagnosed with cataract in PolSenior, 46.5% underwent surgical...
Although the prevalence of cataract in the older adult population in Poland has not changed from 2009 to 2019, the rate of cataract surgeries has considerably increased over the analyzed decade. Patie...
To compare unused phacoemulsification tips and those used different times with different techniques of cataract surgery (divide and conquer and chop), in vivo phacoemulsifications were performed with ...
To determine the advantages and complication rate of capsulotomy performed with femtosecond laser in white complex cataract cases....
Retrospective case series....
Sixteen eyes of 16 patients....
This was a single-center retrospective review of white cataract surgery cases in which the femtosecond laser (LenSx, Alcon Laboratories, Fortworth, Texas, USA) was used between May 2019 and February 2...
Sixteen eyes of 16 patients were included in this study; capsule tags occurred in six patients (37.5%). In 2 patients, the capsule presented small adhesions that were identified and removed. One patie...
The femtosecond laser permitted capsulotomies of better shape, size and regularity in complex cases of white cataract and in combination with conditions such as nystagmus and prior corneal transplanta...
The aim of this study was to estimate the efficacy of the 8-chop technique in phacoemulsification surgeries of patients with cataract....
Sato Eye Clinic, Chiba-ken, Japan....
Prospective study....
Patients were classified into 3 groups (Grade II, Grade III, and Grade IV; n = 50 each) according to the firmness of their lens nuclei. The Eight-chopper I was used for Grade II, Eight-chopper II for ...
150 cataract surgeries were performed. The operative time (minutes), phaco time (seconds), CDE, and volume of fluid used (milliliters) differed significantly among the 3 groups, increasing in the foll...
