Late retinal and optic nerve vascular complications due to COVID-19 in young individuals.

Purpose: This study aims to describe the late retinal and optic nerve vascular complications due Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in a Spanish young population.

Methods: We describe 15 eyes of 15 young patients without any other systemic risk factors, except controlled arterial hypertension in 5 of them, with the diagnosis of Central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO), Branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO), Central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO), Branch retinal artery occlusion (BRAO), Mixed occlusions (Artery and Vein) and Non-arteritic ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) with a previous COVID-19 infection demonstrated with a positive COVID-19 IgG Test (COVID-19 IgG/IgM Rapid Test Cassette, Lambra Laboratories, Madrid, Spain.

Results: 9 males and 6 females, with a mean age of presentation of 49.

Visual and Refractive Outcomes Following SMILE to Correct Myopia Performed by Surgeons in Training.

Purpose: To assess visual outcomes and complications following small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) performed by cornea fellows under the supervision of experienced surgeons.

Methods: This retrospective, noncomparative case series was designed to assess outcomes following SMILE procedures performed at a large surgical center by cornea fellows between May 1, 2012 and March 30, 2015. Preoperative and postoperative uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), preoperative and postoperative corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), spherical equivalent (SE) up to -10.

Topical Atropine in the Control of Myopia.

Atropine has been used for more than a century to arrest myopia progression. Compelling evidence of its protective effect has been reported in well-designed clinical studies, mainly performed during the last two decades. However, its exact mechanism of action has not been determined.
