Functional Outcomes After Refractive Lens Exchange With Implantation of a Glistening-Free Diffractive Trifocal Intraocular Lens.

Purpose: To evaluate visual outcomes and patient-reported results after bilateral femtosecond-laser-assisted refractive lens exchange (RLE) with the implantation of a diffractive trifocal intraocular lens.

Design: Prospective interventional case series.

Methods: A study of 27 patients (54 eyes) implanted with the Clareon PanOptix (Alcon) multifocal intraocular lens during femtosecond-laser-assisted RLE in a university hospital setting.

Viral Anterior Uveitis: Differences in Retinal Vessel Area Density between the Affected and Non-Affected Eye Using Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography.

Purpose: To investigate differences in the retinal vessel area density (VAD) on optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) between eyes with unilateral herpetic viral anterior uveitis (VAU) (herpes-simplex virus (HSV) and varicella-zoster virus (VZV)) and the non-affected fellow eye.

Methods: In this monocentric, observational, prospective case series we analyzed the VAD of the macula, optic disc, and peripapillary region in affected and non-affected eyes of 22 patients with HSV-positive and 22 patients with VZV-positive VAU using OCTA. We analyzed also the visual field mean deviation (MD), the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness, Bruch's Membrane Opening-Minimum Rim Width (BMO-MRW), and ganglion cell layer (GCL) thickness on OCT and correlated the results with the different VADs.

Cytomegalovirus-positive Posner-Schlossman syndrome: to compare differences in retinal vessel area density between the affected and non-affected eye using optical coherence tomography angiography.

Purpose: To analyse differences in the retinal microvasculature in eyes with cytomegalovirus (CMV)-positive Posner-Schlossman syndrome (PSS) compared to the non-affected eyes using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA).

Methods: In this monocentric, observational prospective case series, 25 patients with unilateral CMV-positive PSS were included. We compared the vessel area densities (VAD) in the macula, optic disc, and peripapillary region in PSS-affected and non-affected eyes using OCTA.

Stabilization of macular, peripapillary and papillary vascular parameters after XEN and trabeculectomy visualized by the optical coherence tomography angiography.

To analyze the effect of filtration in glaucoma surgery, XEN versus trabeculectomy, on the vessel area density (VAD) of the macular, papillary and peripapillary regions using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A). This prospective cohort study analyzes the vascular architecture of 47 eyes of 45 patients after two different filtrating surgery procedures (XEN stent and trabeculectomy (TE)) using the OCT-A. Participants who had an outsourced medical anti-glaucoma therapy received filtrating surgery in a 2:1 (XEN: TE) ratio.

Macular, papillary and peripapillary perfusion densities measured with optical coherence tomography angiography in primary open angle glaucoma and pseudoexfoliation glaucoma.

Purpose: To compare the blood flow situation in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (PXG) using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA).

Methods: In this prospective study a total of 26 POAG and 23 PXG eyes were included. All patients underwent a complete ophthalmological examination including standard automated perimetry, stereoscopic photographs of the optic disc, peripapillary retinal nerve fibre layer analysis and examination of vascular parameters of the optic nerve head (ONH), the peripapillary region and macula using OCTA.

Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty Versus MIGS: Forgotten Art or First-Step Procedure in Selected Patients with Open-Angle Glaucoma.

Introduction: To evaluate the long-term effect on intraocular pressure (IOP) and glaucoma medication of selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) compared to minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and its potential in clinical practice.

Methods: A total of 342 consecutive patients (stand-alone procedures) were included. One hundred and five patients underwent SLT treatment (360° SLT, 95-105 spots, Trabeculas SLT ARCLaser, Nürnberg, DE), 107 patients had an ab interno-derived trabeculotomy (Trabectome, NeoMedix, Tustin, USA), and 130 patients received iStent inject implantation (2 implants-Glaukos, CA, USA).
