Purpose: To analyze the incidence, nature, outcomes, and complications of acute chemical eye injuries, including the incidence of limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD) and to compare the 2 main classifications for ocular chemical injuries: Roper-Hall (RH) and Dua.
Methods: This is a prospective, consecutive, interventional single-center study between April and October 2009 of all new patients with acute chemical eye injury presenting to the Royal Victoria Infirmary eye emergency department (EED).
Results: Of 11,683 patients who attended the EED, 98 patients (110 eyes) presented with acute chemical eye injury (60% male).
Aim: To describe a cohort of patients with irreversible unilateral bullous keratopathy (BK) of undetermined aetiology.
Method: Retrospective, single-centre case series in a tertiary corneal referral centre.
Results: Eleven consecutive patients (nine females; mean age 71.
Purpose: To evaluate graft size on outcome following Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) METHODS: Consecutive patients who had undergone a DSAEK for Fuchs endothelial dystrophy (FED) and pseudophakic bullous keratopathy (PBK) with at least 1 year of follow-up. Patients were divided into three groups according to the size of the donor trephine: <9, 9 and 9.5 mm.

Methods: The MCA and filling pattern was investigated using indocyanine green dye angiography (ICGA) in the fellow eye of patients with treated unilateral keratitis. Images were acquired using a scanning laser ophthalmoscope.
Purpose: To quantify changes in corneal neovascularization in patients with active keratitis after treatment using color imaging, fluorescein angiography (FA), and indocyanine green angiography (ICGA).
Design: Prospective, interventional case series.
Methods: Twelve consecutive patients were studied.

Purpose: To evaluate indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) and fluorescein angiography (FA) in imaging and quantifying corneal neovascularization (CNV).
Methods: Patients with CNV were studied using a standardized protocol of color digital photography, FA, and ICGA. Images were graded independently by two observers and assessed for quality, phases of fluorescence, and leakage.
Problem: A Scottish national health service ophthalmic facility was unable to cope with increasing demand for cataract surgery.
Design: Multifaceted approach to redesign hospital space to accommodate a cataract unit; to invest in cataract nursing staff to allow more operations under local anaesthesia and as day cases; and to enhance input by general practitioners and optometrists to streamline and reduce false positive cataract referrals. A prospective audit for productivity was undertaken in 2004 (two years after the redesign) and compared against the national cataract surgery audit data for Fife from 1997.
Background: Patients are often referred to ophthalmologists with focal visual field defects on routine testing, possibly related to a potential diagnosis of glaucoma. However, examination of the individual patient's ocular characteristics as well as facial characteristics may often reveal a cause of the visual field defect.
Case Presentation: We describe a patient who was found to have a superior visual field defect on routine testing by the optician.
