Prediction of Pentacam image after corneal cross-linking by linear interpolation technique and U-NET based 2D regression model.

Keratoconus is a common corneal disease that causes vision loss. In order to prevent the progression of the disease, the corneal cross-linking (CXL) treatment is applied. The follow-up of keratoconus after treatment is essential to predict the course of the disease and possible changes in the treatment.

Impact of serous macular detachment on visual recovery in retinal vein occlusion treatment.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of serous macular detachment observed during retinal vein occlusion on treatment results.

Methods: A total of 117 eyes from 115 patients who had been treated with intravitreal injections for macular edema secondary to retinal vein occlusion were retrospectively reviewed. Visual acuity, optical coherence tomography, and fundus fluorescein angiography findings were evaluated according to the status of serous macular detachment.

An Algorithm Recommendation to Detect Specific Pathology of the Lacrimal Sac.

We aimed to recommend an efficient algorithm to detect the presence of specific pathologies of the lacrimal sac (LS). The charts of 296 patients who had undergone LS biopsy were reviewed retrospectively. The age, gender, history, examination and radiological findings, sac appearance, and pathology results of the patients were recorded.

Correlation between intraocular pressure obtained with water drinking test versus modified diurnal tension curve measurement in pseudoexfoliation glaucoma.

Purpose: The aim of this paper was to study the correlation and agreement between the intraocular pressure (IOP) peak value and fluctuations detected with the modified diurnal tension curve (mDTC) and the water drinking test (WDT) in pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (XFG) patients.

Methods: This prospective observational study enrolled 42 eyes of 42 XFG patients. The IOPs were measured at 2-h intervals from 8 am to 4 pm with a Goldmann applanation tonometer by a single observer to establish the mDTC.

Brown syndrome: clinical features and results of superior oblique tenotomy.

Purpose: This study was conducted to further define the specific clinical characteristics of patients with Brown syndrome and evaluate the outcomes of superior oblique tenotomy in its surgical management.

Methods: A retrospective analysis of the medical charts of 45 patients with Brown syndrome was performed, which revealed that 11 patients underwent superior oblique tenotomy due to abnormal head posture and/or hypotropia and 1 patient underwent bilateral superior oblique tendon elongation with a silicone band due to abnormal head posture. In the last patient, silicone bands were removed at the postoperative 3rd month due to the lack of improvement in the abnormal head posture and the limitation of elevation in adduction.
