Objective: To publish the outcomes and complications of age-related cataract surgery in Cadiz (Spain). Due to the lack of national audits, a comparison was made between the results obtained here and those of the most recent European audit, EUREQUO (2013), and the British audit RCOphth NOD (2015).
Methods: A prospective, longitudinal, before-after study of 312 patients undergoing cataract surgery in the University Hospitals of Puerta del Mar and Puerto Real (Cadiz), in 2013-14.
Background: It has long been assumed that in retinitis pigmentosa, disease presentation and progression are symmetrical. This study investigated whether hyperautofluorescent ring size, one known marker of disease progression, is symmetrical in typical RP patients.
Materials And Methods: A total of 88 patients with typical retinitis pigmentosa were enrolled in the study.
