Purpose: To evaluate the factors influencing the refractive outcomes following silicone oil tamponade (SOT) and silicone oil removal (SOR) in different lens statuses post-vitreoretinal surgery.

Design: Retrospective analysis of three different lens statuses.

Materials And Methods: This was a descriptive study that included 150 eyes of 147 patients who had undergone pars plana vitrectomy with SOT and SOR between January 2017 and June 2021.

Significance: Objective pupillometry with standardized light intensities allows a comprehensive assessment of the relative afferent pupillary defect in patients with unilateral neuro-ophthalmic pathology.

Purpose: This study aimed to determine the impact of varying light intensities on the grade of relative afferent pupillary defect in unilateral neuro-ophthalmic pathology vis-à-vis healthy controls.

Methods: Monocular pupillary light reflexes of 20 controls (14 to 50 years) and 31 cases (12 to 72 years) with clinically diagnosed relative afferent pupillary defect were measured thrice using 1-second-long light pulses, followed by 3 seconds of darkness, at eight light intensities (6.

COVID-19 has affected every individual physically or physiologically, leading to substantial impacts on how they perceive and respond to the pandemic's danger. Due to the lack of vaccines or effective medicines to cure the infection, an urgent control measure is required to prevent the continued spread of COVID-19. This can be achieved using advanced computing, such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), deep learning (DL), cloud computing, and edge computing.

Purpose: Accurate segmentation of retinal blood vessel is an important task in computer-aided diagnosis and surgery planning of diabetic retinopathy. Despite the high-resolution of photographs in fundus photography, the contrast between the blood vessels and the retinal background tends to be poor.

Materials And Methods: In this proposed method, contrast-limited adaptive histogram equalization is used for noise cancellation and improving the local contrast of the image.
