Purpose: To report the technique and long-term outcomes of patients with giant retinal tear associated retinal detachment (GRT-RD) treated with pneumatic retinopexy (PnR).
Methods: Retrospective cohort study. All patients presenting with GRT-RD with tears in the superior ten-clock hours who underwent primary PnR were included in this study.
Purpose: To assess zonular integrity in phakic patients post vitrectomy using ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM).
Design: Prospective, comparative, nonrandomized, double-masked, paired eye study.
Methods: We used ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) to evaluate phakic patients with a history of unilateral pars-plana vitrectomy.
Background: Uncorrected refractive error has been suggested to affect children's development, educational performance, and socialization. Sociodemographic and environmental differences among individuals may impact their accessibility to utilizing appropriate services, impacting their vision-dependent activities.
Methods: Guided by the population health framework, this retrospective study assessed the prevalence of self-reported vision correction needs and its determinants for a sample of adolescents (n = 6363) from the United Arab Emirates (UAE) aged 13 to 20 years between 2007 to 2009.
