Objective: To investigate the impact of refractive errors on binocular visual acuity while using the Da Vinci SI robotic system console.
Methods: Eighty volunteers were examined on the Da Vinci SI robotic system console by using a near vision chart. Refractive errors, anisometropia status, and Fly Stereo Acuity Test scores were recorded.
Purpose: To determine the effect of aging on corneal biomechanical parameters measured via ocular response analyzer in a homogenous healthy Caucasian population.
Methods: A total of 2039 Caucasian adults were consecutively recruited and divided into seven groups according to decades of age. The difference in mean corneal hysteresis (CH), mean corneal resistance factor (CRF), mean Goldmann-correlated intraocular pressure (IOPg), and mean corneal-compensated IOP (IOPcc) between decades of age were investigated.
Introduction: Corneal foreign bodies are reported to be the second most common type of ocular injury. Anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) is a valuable tool for the early diagnosis and monitoring the progress of treatment in cases of ocular trauma. Herein we aimed to report on a patient with an intra-corneal foreign body and the role of AS-OCT in management.

Materials And Methods: Forty-nine patients who underwent laser in situ keratomileusis for mixed astigmatism were included in this retrospective study. Twenty-eight eyes of 21 patients were treated with WaveLight and 46 eyes of 28 patients were treated with the Technolas excimer laser.
Purpose: To determine the effect of smoking on corneal biomechanical behavior.
Materials And Methods: The medical records of consecutive patients that presented to the ophthalmology department were reviewed. History of smoking and ophthalmological examination findings were recorded.
Objectives: Study aims to evaluate the indications and surgical techniques for corneal transplantation and to report changes in trends for preferred keratoplasty surgical techniques.
Methods: Clinical records of 815 consecutive corneal transplantations between January 1, 2004 and December 31, 2014 in Haydarpasa Numune Training and Research Hospital Eye Clinic were analyzed and classified into seven broad groups according to indications. Main outcome measures were change of leading indications and trends for surgical techniques.
A 43-year-old male presented with sudden onset of painless, blurred vision in his left eye. Dilated fundoscopic examination showed signs consistent with the diagnosis of a combination of central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) and cilioretinal artery occlusion (CLRAO). He received daily 2-h sessions of hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBOT), 253 kPa for 14 days.

Case Presentation: A 65-year-old patient with the history of gastric cancer was admitted for eye pain and eye redness on his left eye.
Purpose: To analyze corneal biomechanical properties in aspirin users using an ocular response analyzer.
Methods: This study included 80 eyes of 40 aspirin users and 80 eyes of 40 individuals who did not use aspirin. Corneal hysteresis (CH), the corneal resistance factor (CRF), Goldman-correlated intraocular pressure (IOPg), and corneal compensated intraocular pressure (IOPcc) were measured in all participants.
Purpose: It is aimed to report on a 16-year-old patient with acquired ocular toxoplasmosis complicated by a retinal tear.
Methods: Retrospective medical chart review.
Results: A 16-year-old Caucasian female presented with vision loss in her right eye.
