Introduction: To assess the 1-year outcomes of vertically fixated posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens implantation through a superior corneal incision.
Methods: This pilot study comprised 78 eyes of 53 consecutive patients undergoing vertically fixated implantable collamer lens (ICL) implantation through a superior corneal incision to correct moderate to high myopia and myopic astigmatism. We prospectively determined the safety, efficacy, predictability, stability, and adverse events preoperatively, and at 1 week and 1, 3, and 12 months postoperatively.
Purpose: To determine a correlation between temperature and blood flow in the ocular anterior segment, and their effects on corneal temperature.
Methods: In experiment 1, we recruited 40 eyes and measured the temperature and blood flow in the ocular anterior-segment (upper/lower eyelid skin, palpebral and bulbar conjunctiva, and cornea) before and after application of warm compresses. In experiment 2, we recruited 20 eyes and measured the same tissues before and during stimulation using water and capsaicin solution in the oral cavity.
