Unified Approach to Treating Exogenous Endophthalmitis With Immediate Vitrectomy.
J Vitreoretin Dis
September 2024
Article Synopsis
- A study analyzed the effects and complications of immediate small-gauge pars plana vitrectomy on 107 patients with exogenous endophthalmitis from 2016 to 2022.
- Results showed significant improvement in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) from initial diagnosis to follow-up, with a mean logMAR BCVA change from 2.26 to 1.21.
- Common complications included retinal detachment (17.8%) and secondary glaucoma (9.3%), highlighting the need for patient counseling on the risks of the surgery.
Article Synopsis
- * A total of 783 surgeries were performed, with patients experiencing a significant mean visual acuity improvement of 28.5 letters over an average of 3.05 months.
- * While 27.3% of cases experienced statistical hypotony, only 5% of complications were specifically linked to the IOL, indicating that the technique was generally effective with few direct issues arising from the lens itself.
The effect of ethnicity on anatomic success following macular hole surgery: a multicentre cohort study.
Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol
June 2023
Purpose: The purpose is to assess the effect of ethnicity on surgical macular hole closure.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was undertaken in five UK National Health Service Hospitals. We included all patients with known ethnicity undergoing vitrectomy, internal limiting membrane peel, and gas/oil tamponade for all stages of primary full-thickness macular hole (FTMH).
An experimental assessment of five indices of retinal vessel tortuosity with the RET-TORT public dataset.
Annu Int Conf IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc
October 2015
We compare the performance of five indices of retinal vessel tortuosity against sampling rates of vessel centerlines. We consider distance measure, tortuosity density, two curvature-based measures, and a recently introduced slope-chain coding for general curves, never before assessed comparatively with retinal vessels. To enable replication of our results, we use the public dataset for retinal tortuosity, RET-TORT.
