Article Synopsis
- Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is a serious complication in COVID-19 patients, with a study showing it occurred in 2.31% of hospitalized patients, primarily affecting older individuals with existing health issues.
- The study analyzed 693 COVID-19 patients from April 2020 to February 2021, revealing that many AIS cases arose within the first 24 hours, led by total anterior circulation infarction and cardioembolic causes.
- Patients with AIS had a higher prevalence of hypertension and heart disease, with a significant mortality rate, highlighting the need for awareness and monitoring for stroke risks in COVID-19 cases, particularly in older adults.
Purpose: To evaluate the changes in the posterior ocular structures and glaucoma susceptibility in patients with hemifacial spasm (HFS).
Study Design: Prospective observational clinical study.
Methods: This study included 46 long-standing HFS patients with a minimum follow-up of 12 months.
Purpose: To compare measurements of the thickness of the retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) and assess the agreement between three different devices for spectral domain optical coherence tomography.
Material And Methods: The RNFL thickness of both eyes of 23 normal subjects older than 40 years was measured using Canon HS100, Topcon Maestro, and NIDEK RS-3000 devices. Both eyes of each subject were scanned in random order.
Purpose: To investigate whether there are retinal lesions associated with severe COVID-19.
Methods: We studied 232 symptomatic subjects aged 18 - 65 years who had severe COVID-19 and had received treatment. The evaluations included ophthalmological examinations, optical coherence tomography (OCT), imaging modalities with near infrared reflectance (NIR), fundus autofluorescence (FAF), and fundus photography (FP).

December 2022
Objective: To evaluate the corneal topographic parameter values measured with the Pentacam Scheimpflug system in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS).
Methods: A total of 108 eyes of 62 MS patients were studied. In addition to a complete examination of anterior and posterior segments, all patients were scanned using the Pentacam Scheimpflug camera.
