Thinning of the retinal nerve fiber and choroidal layers in adolescents with anorexia nervosa: A controlled study.

Purpose: We aimed to evaluate retinal nerve fiber and choroidal layer alterations in adolescents with anorexia nervosa using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography.

Methods: Thirty patients with anorexia nervosa and 30 healthy adolescents aged 12-18 years were included in this study. Their age, sex, body mass index, anorexia nervosa type, disease duration, and spectral-domain optical coherence tomography data were recorded.

The role of blood neutrophil lymphocyte ratio in predicting the initial response to anti-VEGF treatment in neovascular AMD patients.

Purpose: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has a critical role in age-related macular degeneration (AMD), and intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF drugs is the mainstay of neovascular AMD treatment. Blood neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is shown to be a biomarker of inflammation in AMD. We aimed to investigate the role of NLR in predicting favorable short-term anti-VEGF treatment results in neovascular AMD patients.

Outcomes of fractionated CyberKnife radiosurgery in patients with choroidal malignant melanoma.

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate local tumor control and complication development rates of fractionated CyberKnife radiosurgery (CRS) in patients with choroidal melanoma.

Methods: A total of 29 patients with choroidal melanoma were treated with fractionated CRS at Ankara Oncology Research and Training Hospital, Department of Radiotherapy between May 2009 and December 2013. Patients were treated with CRS if the initial height of the choroidal melanoma was ≥ 6 mm, or juxtapapillary and/or juxtamacular tumors with a height of >2.

Acute clouding of a trifocal intraocular lens during implantation: A case report.

Purpose: In this paper, we present a case of acute clouding of a trifocal intraocular lens (IOL) that resolved spontaneously by the day after surgery.

Observations: A 68-year-old woman with a nuclear cataract in the right eye was scheduled for cataract surgery with +21.00 diopter trifocal IOL (AT LISA tri 839MP, Carl Zeiss Meditec AG, Germany) implantation.

Neutrophil lymphocyte ratio as a predictor of perioperative complications in patients with PEX Syndrome during cataract surgery.

Introduction: Pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PES) is an age-related process associated with glaucoma and cataracts. It increases the risk of complications during cataract surgery. Blood neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is shown to be an effective biomarker of inflammation in PES.

Evaluation of the effect of optic zone diameter selection on high-order aberrations in photorefractive keratectomy excimer laser treatment.

To evaluate the postoperative higher-order aberration (HOA) differences and visual quality outcomes of wavefront-optimised photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) surgery in 6.5-mm and 7.0-mm optic zones.

Accuracy of 8 intraocular lens calculation formulas in relation to anterior chamber depth in patients with normal axial lengths.

Purpose: To determine the effect of anterior chamber depth (ACD) on the accuracy of 8 intraocular lens calculation formulas in patients with normal axial lengths (ALs).

Setting: Baylor College of Medicine, Alkek Eye center, Houston, Texas, USA.

Design: Retrospective case series.

Relationship between pseudoexfoliation syndrome and erectile dysfunction: a possible cause of endothelial dysfunction for development of erectile dysfunction.

Objectives: Pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PES) is a common age-related fibrillopathy related to accumulation of pseudoexfoliation material (PEM) in certain places in the body, especially blood vessels. Erectile dysfunction (ED) is another condition related to vascular pathology and in this study it is aimed to identify the relationship between ED and PES.

Materials And Methods: Data of 92 patients were investigated.
