Case Report: Snake Venom Ophthalmia Caused by Cobra Exposure: A Report of 26 Cases.

We report 26 cases of eye injuries resulting from cobra venom sprayed by Naja atra. This accounts for 14.5% of patients (26/173) treated for cobra injuries who presented to the emergency department of a snakebite treatment center in Guangzhou, South China.

Correlation between ocular Demodex infestation and serum immunoreactivity to Bacillus proteins in patients with Facial rosacea.

Purpose: To investigate correlation between ocular Demodex infestation and serum.

Design: A prospective study to correlate clinical findings with laboratory data.

Participants: We consecutively enrolled 59 patients: 34 men and 25 women with a mean age of 60.

Sutureless amniotic membrane transplantation for severe bacterial keratitis.

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of early sutureless amniotic membrane transplantation in the management of severe bacterial keratitis to reduce pain, inflammation, and haze, and to promote healing.

Method: A noncomparative case series including 3 eyes of 3 consecutive patients with severe bacterial keratitis exhibiting persistent epithelial defect/ulcer, more than 5 mm in diameter, located within 3mm from the visual axis with infiltration occupying more than 50% of the corneal thickness. They were retrospectively reviewed following early (ie, within 96 hours) sutureless amniotic membrane transplantation via ProKera together with selective topical antibiotics and preservative-free steroid.

[Wavefront analysis in pseudophakic eyes by using allegretto wave analyzer].

Purpose: To analyze the wavefront aberrations of pseudophakic eyes.

Methods: Seventy-eight patients (84 eyes) who have undergone phacoemulsification and Alcon Acrysof SA60AT intraocular lens were divided into 3 groups by the stage of post-operation. Allegretto Wave Analyzer (Wavelight Laser Technologie AG, Germany) implanted into the eyes was applied to analyze the wavefront aberrations.

[The clinical study of stereopsis after bilateral intraocular lens implantation].

Purpose: To observe the stereopsis of senile cataract patients after bilateral intraocular lens (IOL) implantation.

Method: Subjects were divided into two groups: IOL group and normal group. Near stereoacuity with distance and near correction was checked with Randot steretests respectively.

Quantitative measurements of the decentration distance of four kinds of intraocular lens.

Purpose: To investigate a quantitative method to measure decentration distance(DD) and analyze the DD of four kinds of intraocular lenses (IOLs).

Methods: The pseudophakic eye photos were taken under the slit lamp after the IOLs were implanted a year or longer. Then the images were inputted into a computer and the Photoshop software was applied to analyze the DD.
