Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess the optic nerve head microvascular changes in pseudoexfoliative and primary open-angle glaucoma and define the relationship between vessel density and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness.

Methods: This observational cross-sectional study assessed 72 eyes with primary open-angle glaucoma, 41 eyes with pseudoexfoliative glaucoma, and 60 healthy eyes. On the basis of optic nerve head-centered, 4.

Objectives: We aimed at investigating the iridocorneal angle, anterior segment structural differences, and their relationship in pediatric anisohyperopic amblyopic eyes.

Methods: This study was designed as an observational case-control study. We prospectively evaluated the pediatric patients who were newly diagnosed with hyperopic anisometropic amblyopia.

Purpose: To determine the effects of vitamin D deficiency on retinal microvascularity using optical coherence tomography angiography.

Methods: This study was designed as an observational case-control study. Ninety-eight eyes of patients with vitamin D deficiency and 96 eyes of healthy participants with serum vitamin D level >30 ng/mL were studied.

Background: To compare the refractive results of hand-held and table-mounted autorefractors.

Methods: We designed this study as an observational, cross-sectional study. We compared the mean spheric and cylinder power, spherical equivalent, Jackson cross-cylinder values, determined the limits of agreement (LoA), and evaluated the reliability of two autorefractors.

Background: To determine optic nerve head (ONH) microvascular changes detected by optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) and intraocular pressure changes (IOPs) after uncomplicated phacoemulsification surgery.

Methods: The study was designed as a prospective observational study. Twenty-four eyes were included.

Purpose: To investigate retinal microvascular findings detected by optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A) in amblyopic eyes compared with normal eyes.

Methods: A total of 23 amblyopic (strabismic, ametropic, anisometropic, and meridional amblyopia) and 22 normal eyes were included in this prospective observational, comparative study. All patients underwent complete ophthalmological examination and OCT-A imaging.
