Observational, longitudinal, retrospective study of patients older than 50 years diagnosed with exudative AMD, with a logMAR VA between 0.6 and 0.06, in follow-up and treatment in our tertiary hospita...
AntiVEGF treatments (ranibizumab, aflibercept and both) maintained VA in patients with exudative AMD. In general, care and treatment costs were lower in the group that received both drugs....
To explore the relationship between the density, depth, and surface irregularity of superficial corneal opacities and vision....
This prospective imaging study included 19 patients with unilateral superficial corneal opacification due to scarring post-microbial keratitis. Each eye underwent an assessment of uncorrected visual a...
The mean logMAR UCVA, BSCVA, and CLCVA were 0.76, 0.35, and 0.28, respectively. The corneal scars had a mean thickness of 158.7 ± 61 µ and density of 65.73 ± 24.46 GSU. Bivariate analysis model for UC...
In superficial corneal stromal scarring, deranged surface irregularity parameters like higher-order aberrations affect the final visual acuity more than the depth or density of the opacity....
This cross-sectional study aims to examine the quality of life and difficulties in the daily functioning of patients with impaired visual acuity treated with intravitreal drugs. The survey included 18...
Macular edema, serous retinal detachment, and retinal pigment epithelial detachment have been reported in patients with nephrotic syndrome. However, there is limited data about macular thickness in ch...
The comparative cross-sectional study included 66 children aged 6 to 17 years with nephrotic syndrome and healthy control seen in two tertiary centers in Malaysia. We recorded demographic data, as wel...
The mean foveal thickness was 238.15 ± 22.98 µm for children with nephrotic syndrome and 237.01 ± 22.60 µm for the control group. There was no significant difference in the mean macular thickness betw...
The mean macular thickness in children with nephrotic syndrome was similar to that of healthy children. A significant correlation between the mean thickness of the outer macular layer and the presenti...
To determine the influence of decentration and tilt of a pseudophakic aspheric intraocular lens (IOL) on visual acuity (VA) and higher-order aberrations (HOAs), and to analyze the agreement between pu...
A prospective interventional case series study including thirty-three patients undergoing Tecnis ZCB00 (Abbott Medical Optics) implantation. IOL decentration and tilt with respect to two reference sys...
IOL decentration only showed a significant effect on internal HOAs for [Formula: see text] (R...
Tecnis ZCB00 decentration and tilt values after uneventful implantation appear not to have influence on VA, and their effect on HOAs are not high enough to clinically affect quality of vision. Pupil a...
To determine baseline visual acuity before the start of treatment for neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD), compare median and visual acuity states between treatment sites and investigat...
Anonymised demographic and clinical data, collected as part of routine clinical care, were extracted from electronic medical records at treating National Health Service (NHS) Trusts. Analyses were res...
Analysis included 12,414 eyes of 9116 patients at 13 NHS Trusts. Median baseline acuity was LogMAR 0.46 (interquartile range = 0.26-0.80) and 34.5% of eyes had good acuity, defined as LogMAR ≤0.3. Bas...
Despite access to publicly funded treatment within the NHS, variation in visual acuity at the start of neovascular AMD treatment persists. Identifying the characteristics associated with poor baseline...
This study aimed to identify the effect of different durations of visual target presentation during ciliary-muscle training on children's kinetic visual acuity (KVA), uncorrected distance visual acuit...
Based on the ciliary-muscle regulation mechanism, an intervention program involving ciliary-muscle training with different durations of visual target presentation combined with physical education clas...
After 32 weeks of the intervention, the KVA and UDVA of each experimental group were significantly improved (...
In school physical education classes, the 1-s, 3-s, and 5-s ciliary-muscle regulating exercise could effectively improve the kinetic visual acuity, uncorrected distance visual acuity, and accommodativ...
Knowledge of visual health in the population is necessary for designing and implementing measures to handle visual handicap. The purpose of the FORSYN (Forekomst af synshandicap og synshjaelpemidler i...
A population-representative sample of 10 350 citizens living within 40 kilometres from Aarhus University Hospital were invited to answer a questionnaire about quality of life related to vision, measur...
Population-adjusted visual acuity in ETDRS letters (mean ± SD) differed significantly (p < 0.0001) among the worse eye (84.1 ± 0.25), the better eye (88.4 ± 0.11) and binocularly (89.2 ± 0.15). Social...
