This paper presents the Tactile Blep (T-Blep), an optical soft sensor that can measure the stiffness and force of different materials. The sensor consists of an inflatable membrane with an optical elements inside. The T-Blep can switch between stiffness detection and force detection modes, by changing the pattern followed by internal pressure of the membrane.

Methods: A complete ophthalmological examination was performed at each follow-up visit including best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure, slit lamp examination, spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography, OCT angiography.
Results: Multimodal imaging of two women presenting avascular PED, aged 43 and 57, respectively, was described.
Introduction: This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of cystoid macular edema after pars plana vitrectomy for the treatment of pseudophakic rhegmatogenous retinal detachment and identify possible related risk factors.
Methods: A retrospective monocentric study was conducted within a cohort of pseudophakic patients undergoing vitrectomy for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment between January 2019 and December 2022. Demographic data, initial and intraoperative characteristics of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, and postoperative data were analyzed.
