Aims: To investigate the changes in vision-related quality of life after a loading dose of three consecutive intravitreal ranibizumab (IVR) injections in patients with unilateral diabetic macular edema (DME).
Materials And Methods: Fifty-two eyes of 52 patients who received IVR injections in only one eye with DME were included in our study. The following characteristics of the patients were recorded: gender, education status, marital status, work status, presence of chronic disease.
Purpose: To compare the preoperative and postoperative measurements of optical low-coherence reflectometry (OLCR) biometry and assessment of its refractive predictability.
Methods: A total of 114 eyes of 102 patients who underwent cataract treatment were prospectively examined. The axial length (AL), central corneal thickness (CCT), anterior chamber depth (ACD), lens thickness (LT), K (keratometry) 1, K2, K average (KAVE) and K astigmatic (KAST) values were recorded using Lenstar LS 900 (Haag-Streit, Koeniz, Switzerland) OLCR device.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare the biomechanical parameters of the cornea and intraocular pressure (IOP) before and after hemodialysis (HD) in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and also healthy subjects.
Materials And Methods: Twenty-one patients with ESRD undergoing HD treatment (study group) and 21 healthy individuals (control group) were enrolled in this prospective study. Right eyes of each subjects were included.
