[Vision screening for children: Recommended practices from AFSOP].

In light of the international literature, a workgroup of experts from the AFSOP met in February 2019 to formulate updated recommendations for visual screening in children. An ophthalmologic examination during the first month of life is recommended for children at risk of developing infantile organic amblyopia. An ophthalmologic examination including cycloplegic refraction between 12 and 15 months of age is recommended for children at risk of developing functional amblyopia.

[Cataract surgery in children with non-infectious uveitis: Review of current practices in France].

Purpose: To evaluate the medical-surgical management of cataract surgery in children with chronic uveitis in various French pediatric ophthalmology centers.

Materials And Methods: Two-part study: first, a descriptive observational segment on the evaluation of French practices. A questionnaire was sent to the various pediatric ophthalmologists in France.

Reproducibility of single-pass donor DSAEK tissue preparation with the MORIA single-use microkeratome.

Purpose: To assess the reproducibility of single-pass cutting for preparation of ultra-thin (≤120μm) donor cornea grafts in Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK).

Methods: All consecutive patients of DSAEK performed using the MORIA One Use microkeratome (MORIA, Antony, France) in between June 2014 and August 2015. Patient and donor central corneal thickness (CTT), microkeratome head, remaining stromal bed thickness (RSBT), number of cut and graft thickness at 1 month and 6 months postoperatively were recorded in this single-center prospective study.

[Benign conjunctival tumors].

Benign conjunctival tumors include congenital, melanocytic, epithelial and stromal lesions. Clinical observation often fails to make the diagnosis, and complete excisional biopsy must be performed as soon as growth is suspected. Histology remains the best way to exclude malignancy or lesions with a risk of transformation, because malignant lesions carry a poor prognosis and require specific therapy and follow-up.

[Pigmentosum retinis and tubulo-interstitial nephronophtisis in Sensenbrenner syndrome: a case report].

Purpose: Sensenbrenner syndrome or cranio-ectodermal dysplasia is an extremely rare autosomal recessive condition (12 cases reported in literature). Our observation shows the possibility of both ocular and renal involvement associated with cranio-ectodermal abnormalities.

Patients: and method:We report the case of a girl who presented a typical cranio-ectodermal syndrome with dolicocephaly, short thorax, short limbs, short fingers and teeth abnormalities.

[Therapeutic considerations in retinal detachments caused by macular hole].

The authors analyse 24 observations of retinal detachment with macular hole in high myopia. All this patients have been treated by C3F8 internal tamponade. Silicon oil has been only used for recurrences.

[Eales' disease: therapeutic considerations].

Five cases of Eales syndrome are analysed in this report. The tuberculous etiology of this disease oblige, during the treatment, a medical survey. After photocoagulations, a medical treatment with acetylsalicylic acid seem to be useful to decrease evolution of this thrombosant vasculopathy.

[HIV-positive newborns via maternal-fetal transmission. Early ophthalmic lesions].

Since January 1986, the authors have examined twenty infant HIV positives. In two cases specially, some serious and precocious ophthalmic lesions have been found : an ophthalmic zona appeared at the age of three months, a cytomegalovirus retinitis diagnosed at the age of six months. From this series, the particularities of the HIV infection by maternal-fetal transmission are discussed.

[C-peptide in the insulin-dependent diabetic].

Plasma C-peptide levels were measured in classical insulin-dependent diabetics (group I) and in patients who had become insulin-dependent after a mean 12 years of non-insulin dependent diabetes (group II). All had been under insulin therapy for no more than 2 years. Metabolic control, as assessed by blood glucose and glycosylated A1C haemoglobin levels, was equally poor in both groups.
