Purpose: To evaluate short-term visual and refractive outcomes after implantation of a diffractive trifocal intraocular lens (IOL) in cataract patients with phacoemulsification (PHACO) and femtosecond laser assisted cataract surgery (FLACS).
Setting: Department of Ophthalmology, Shanghai Aier Eye Hospital, China.
Design: A retrospective, observational study.
Aim: To compare the postoperative binocular visual performance with an iTrace analyzer following femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) combined with bilateral implantation of two different types of diffractive trifocal intraocular lenses (IOL).
Methods: During this retrospective observational study, patients who received bilateral FLACS combined with implantation of two different types of diffractive trifocal IOLs were evaluated. According to the IOLs' different types and design, the patients were divided into AT LISA tri839MP group (tri839 group) and AcrySof PanOptix TFNT00 group (TFNT group).
Aim: To observe the changes in ocular surface and the dry eye symptoms following femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS).
Methods: Patients with no eye signs or symptoms in Guangzhou Aier Eye Hospital between October 2017 and September 2018, who underwent FLACS and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation for age-related cataract were enrolled. Tear film stability assessed with OCULUS Keratograph 5M, Schirmer's I test (SIT), and corneal fluorescein staining (CFS) were evaluated before and after surgery at 1d, 1wk, 1, and 3mo in order.

Objective: To evaluate the application of femtosecond laser technology in the management of subluxated lens.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the data of the patients with subluxated lens undergoing femtosecond laser- assisted surgery at the Cataract Center of Guangzhou Aier Eye Hospital between March, 2017 and May, 2019. The LenSx femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery system was used to perform capsulotomy and lens fragmentation.

Objective: To assess the performance of a minimally invasive thoracic drainage tube (14 F) made of polyurethane (PU) in a rabbit model of hemothorax in comparison with the conventional 28 F chest tube (CCT).
Methods: Thirty New Zealand rabbits were divided into experimental chest tube (ECT) group (=9), CCT group (=6), and blood provider group (=15). Blood samples (20 mL) collected from the blood providing rabbits were injected into the chest cavity of the rabbits in the other two groups, and the time taken for closed drainage of the thoracic cavity was recorded.
Objective: To evaluate the changes in retinal functions using multifocal electroretinography (mfERG) following intravitreal injection of Lucentis for treatment of wet age-related macular degeneration.
Methods: This prospective study was conducted in 14 patients (9 men and 5 women, 14 eyes) with wet age-related macular degeneration receiving treatment with intravitreal injections of ranibizumab (Lucentis) in our hospital between October, 2014 and January, 2016. All the patients received the treatment following a 1+PRN protocol and after the initial injection, the patients were followed up monthly for 6 months to decide if additional injections were needed.
Objective: To evaluate the biocompatibility and hemocompatibility of an enhanced polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) graft modified with sulfonated silk fibroin (SF) and to compare the patency rate of the modified graft to that of the commercially available unmodified ePTFE graft in a rabbit model.
Methods: Twelve SF-modified grafts were used to replace a section of the lower abdominal aortic artery in rabbits, and 10 unmodified ePTFE grafts were used as controls. The patency rates of these grafts were examined according to physical findings, ultrasonic examination, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
Aim: To evaluate the incidence of spontaneous regression of changes in the retina and vitreous in active stage of retinopathy of prematurity(ROP) and identify the possible relative factors during the regression.
Methods: This was a retrospective, hospital-based study. The study consisted of 39 premature infants with mild ROP showed spontaneous regression (Group A) and 17 with severe ROP who had been treated before naturally involuting (Group B) from August 2008 through May 2011.
Aim: To take fundus examination in the preterm neonates to observe the common diseases and report the outcomes in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) in Guangzhou between May 2008 and May 2011.
Methods: Fundus examinations were performed with Retcam II in 957 prematures.
Results: There were 957 prematures in this study, including 666 males and 291 females, 2 triple births, 152 twins and 803 singletons.

Objective: To evaluate the incidence and risk factors for severe retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) in preterm infants.
Methods: Between May, 2008 and May, 2011, a total of 957 preterm infants at 4-6 weeks of chronological age or 32 weeks of postmenstrual age underwent retinal evaluation by RetCamII in our center, and the data of infants with ROP in any stage were analyzed.
Results: Among the 957 preterm infants, we found 86 (8.
