Article Synopsis
- Glucocorticoid therapy is used to treat various diseases, including those affecting the eyes, but can lead to a significant side effect known as glucocorticoid-induced ocular hypertension (GIOHT), which can result in glaucoma and potential blindness.
- The review examines the cellular and molecular changes in the eyes, particularly in the trabecular meshwork and Schlemm's canal, that contribute to GIOHT.
- It also highlights clinical details about GIOHT/GIG, such as its prevalence, associated risk factors, types of glucocorticoids used, administration methods, and possible management approaches.
Article Synopsis
- The study highlights the importance of understanding the genetic, acquired, and immunological causes of limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD) and its ocular manifestations, which can range from mild symptoms like dry eye to severe issues like vision loss.
- A comprehensive review was conducted using 99 articles published from November 1986 to October 2022, focusing on the various causes and treatments for LSCD found in reputable databases.
- The findings stress the necessity of accurately identifying the source of LSCD damage to tailor appropriate treatments, which may include more than just standard methods and could involve advanced options like stem cell transplants.
Purpose: To compare corneal power difference maps (∆maps) obtained from the Pentacam in patients with 1 year follow-up after LASIK, PRK, and SMILE with further stratification to low, moderate, and high myopia.
Patients And Methods: This retrospective study was comprised of patients who had preoperative and 1-year postoperative power maps that were obtained-front sagittal (SagF), refractive power (RP), true net power (TNP), and total corneal refractive power (TCRP)-for evaluation. Measurements were recorded and compared at the 4mm, 5mm and 6mm pupil and apex zones.
