Article Abstract

The aim of this study was to analyse the changes in refraction, depending on the length of the eyeball, in patients who had undergone cataract surgery using the phacoemulsification method and to assess the stability of refraction. A total of 90 patients (46 to 85 years of age) took part in the study and were divided into three groups: emmetropic, hypermetropic, and myopic. Two types of intraocular lenses were used: Bausch (Akreos AO) and Rayner (C-flex). In conclusion, stabilization of refraction was achieved in the third week in 91% of the emmetropic, 77% of the myopic, and 46% of the hypermetropic patients, respectively. The correct postoperative refraction was achieved using optical biometry and the Barrett Universal II formula to calculate the power of the lens implant.

ObjectivePseudoexfoliation syndrome is a systemic disease of unknown etiology, seen in advanced ages, characterized by extracellular material accumulation in ocular tissues and visceral organs. Autophagy, which is a basic metabolic pathway, provides macromolecule recycling of the cell and maintains cell homeostasis by adapting to the cell's stress environment. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between specific mechanisms of autophagy and pseudoexfoliation syndrome.

PurposeTo evaluate the safety and ability of an ophthalmic solution containing Poloxamer 407 and Polyquaternium 133 to reduce conjunctival bacterial load before cataract surgery.MethodsPatients (n = 74) were randomized to 2 groups: treatment (n = 37) or placebo (treatment's vehicle; (n = 37)) BID from V1 to V3. Patients were also given standard postoperative treatment from V2 to V3.

Purpose: To evaluate tilt, decentration, and axial stability of the Clareon toric intraocular lens (TIOL) (CNW0T3-9; Alcon Laboratories, Inc) over a 6-month follow-up period.

Methods: A single-center, prospective, interventional clinical trial was conducted with a study population of 130 eyes from 82 patients who received a Clareon TIOL. Tilt, decentration, and the aqueous depth were determined preoperatively and at 1 week and 6 months postoperatively using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (Casia 2; Tomey Corporation).

Purpose: To evaluate intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation of a non-diffractive extended depth of focus (EDOF) IOL after myopic laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) without historical data.

Methods: In this consecutive case series, patients who had undergone lens surgery with implantation of a non-diffractive EDOF IOL after myopic laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) at the Department of Ophthalmology, University Hospital Frankfurt, Frankfurt, Germany, were included. Preoperative assessments included biometry and tomography using Scheimpflug technology (Pentacam; Oculus Optikgeräte GmbH).
