Objectives: To investigate the effect of cataract surgery on visual acuity, stereoacuity, balance, and falls in patients with senile cataract.
Methods: Prospective, cross-sectional study. The patients were divided into group 1 if the first surgery was performed on the dominant eye and group 2 on the nondominant eye.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare tear function and ocular surface disease (OSD) in glaucoma patients treated with medications in one eye and trabeculectomy surgery in the other.
- The researchers analyzed data from 19 patients who had surgery at least six months prior, assessing various eye health indicators compared to a control group of healthy individuals.
- Results indicated that both treatment methods similarly affected OSD, with some improvement noted over time, but neither approach showed a significant advantage over the other regarding the incidence of OSD.
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate prognostic factors that may be useful in predicting final visual acuity in patients admitted to the clinic with chemical corneal injuries.
Methods: Data on age, sex, time to admission, irrigation solutions (balanced salt solution or phosphate buffered saline) and type of substance causing chemical injury were recorded. On admission, all patients were evaluated according to Roper Hall and Dua classifications.
Introduction Glaucoma is a chronic disease that can lead to severe visual impairment and blindness. Methods The study included 91 primary open-angle glaucoma patients aged 60 years and older (group 1) and 83 healthy controls (group 2) with similar age and gender distribution. The duration of the disease, the number of anti-glaucomatous drops used daily, and visual field parameters were recorded.

Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical significance of blood-cell associated inflammation markers in patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) and sickle cell retinopathy (SCR).
Methods: Neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR), monocyte to lymphocyte ratio (MLR), systemic immune inflammation index (SIII), systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), systemic inflammation modulation index (SIMI) and aggregate systemic inflammation index (AISI) were calculated. This study included 45 healthy controls (Group 1) and 100 SCD (Group 2).
