Purpose: To evaluate mesopic and photopic contrast sensitivity in patients with congenital red-green color vision deficiency regarding with and without glare conditions and to compare these findings with age- and gender-matched healthy controls with normal color vision.
Methods: Patients with congenital red-green color vision deficiency and age- and gender-matched healthy controls were included in this cross-sectional comparative study. Contrast sensitivity measurements were taken from all subjects in 4 different conditions; binocular mesopic-without glare, mesopic-with glare, photopic-without glare, photopic-with glare, and the results were compared.
Objective: To evaluate the effects of rosacea on ocular surface changes such as alterations in dry eye parameters, corneal densitometry, and aberrations, in comparison with healthy controls.
Methods: A total of 88 eyes of 44 patients diagnosed with rosacea and 88 eyes of 44 healthy controls were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. All participants underwent a comprehensive dermatologic and ophthalmic examination and Tear Break-Up Time (TBUT) and Schirmer-1 tests were performed.
Purpose: To evaluate dry eye parameters, corneal topographic features, corneal densitometric changes, and anterior segment parameters in patients receiving systemic isotretinoin treatment.
Methods: This prospective cross-sectional study included 66 eyes of 33 patients who were started on oral isotretinoin therapy for severe acne vulgaris. All patients were evaluated in terms of ocular surface tests such as tear break-up time (TBUT) and Schirmer-1 and were asked to fill in the ocular surface disease index (OSDI) questionnaire.
A 59-year-old man presented with a unilateral blurring of vision in his left eye. His left eye's visual acuity was hand movements level. He underwent phacoemulsification surgery, and an intrastromal posterior chamber intraocular lens was implanted.

Methods: This study included 114 eyes of 57 patients diagnosed with schizophrenia and 114 eyes of 57 healthy controls. Central foveal thickness (CFT), central macular thickness (CMT), and ORL thickness were measured in both groups via the images obtained by spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT).

Background: To evaluate corneal endothelial properties and corneal densitometry values in patients with psoriasis and to compare the results with those of healthy controls.
Methods: This prospective, comparative, and cross-sectional study included 106 eyes of 53 patients who were diagnosed with psoriasis and 106 eyes of 53 age-gender matched healthy controls. All patients were evaluated in terms of ocular surface tests such as Schirmer-1 and tear break-up time (TBUT).

Background: To evaluate the ocular symptoms and findings of children diagnosed with Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF).
Methods: In this prospective study, children diagnosed with CCHF who underwent a complete ophthalmologic examination during the hospitalization period were included.
Results: Twenty-four children with a mean age of 12.
Purpose: To determine the association of monocyte-to-high-density lipoprotein ratio (MHR) and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) with diabetic macular edema (DME) and early anti-VEGF treatment response.
Material Methods: This was a retrospective and cross-sectional study conducted with 143 patients with diabetes mellitus (53 diabetic retinopathy with DME, 38 diabetic retinopathy without DME, and 52 without diabetic retinopathy).
Results: 13.
Purpose: To describe retinal findings and spectral-domain optical coherence tomographic (SD-OCT) features of a patient with Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) presenting as Purtscher-like retinopathy.
Case Report: A 70-year-old woman presented with the emerging bilateral blurring of vision. She had been diagnosed with CCHF one week ago and hospitalized in another hospital for treatment of disease.
The aim of this study was to investigate the mean platelet volume (MPV) of patients with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR). Thirty patients were included in the study. Thirty healthy volunteers were recruited as the control group.
