Analysis of Posterior Vitreous Detachment and Development of Complications Using a Large Database of Retina Specialists.

Purpose: To examine the incidence of complications after posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) through an extended follow-up period and to identify patient-specific factors associated with a greater incidence of complication.

Design: Multicenter, retrospective observational study.

Participants: Eyes with acute PVDs between 2015 and 2019 were identified through the Vestrum Health database.

[Renal replacement therapy in the elderly patients in the Gdansk Pomeranian region].

Aging of population is a common phenomenon all over the civilized world. It results in increasing number of aged patients with end-stage renal disease. We analysed patients over 65 years who have been qualified for renal replacement therapy (RRT) since 1997.

Aqueous to cornea fluorescein distribution ratio in normal and swollen cornea.

Intravitreal sodium fluorescein was used to simulate equilibrium fluorescein kinetics, thereby allowing simple measurement of the aqueous to cornea fluorescein distribution ratio. Two groups of rabbit corneas were studied: normal corneas and corneas wounded by freezing. The aqueous to cornea fluorescein distribution ratio was approximately 0.
