Rotational Stability, Tilt and Decentration of a New IOL with a 7.0 mm Optic.

: To evaluate rotational stability, tilt and decentration of a new monofocal IOL with a 7.0 mm optic and frame haptics. Prospective post-market clinical follow-up study at the Kepler University Hospital Linz, Austria.

Efficacy of a Disease Management Program of a Tertiary Center and Ophthalmologic Practitioners for the Treatment of Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration.

Purpose: The aim of the study was to examine real-world data of patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) within a disease management program (DMP) treated with anti-VEGF.

Methods: A monocentric, retrospective chart review of 379 eyes of a local DMP was conducted at the Department of Ophthalmology, Kepler University Clinic Linz. Eyes were treated either with bevacizumab or aflibercept using a pro re nata scheme, consisting of 3 injections every 4 weeks in case of presence of disease activity.

A Swept source optical coherence tomography angiography study: Imaging artifacts and comparison of non-perfusion areas with fluorescein angiography in diabetic macular edema.

Purpose: Swept Source Optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA) is a novel technique to visualize perfusion and vascular changes like ischemia in patients with diabetic retinopathy. The aim of this study was to compare non-perfusion areas on conventional fluorescein angiography (FA) with those on SS-OCTA using detailed manual annotation in patients with diabetic macular edema (DME) and to evaluate possible artifacts caused by DME on SS-OCTA.

Methods: 27 eyes of 21 patients with DME were analyzed in this prospective, cross-sectional study; on all, standard ophthalmological examination, SS-OCTA and FA imaging were performed.

Early alterations in retinal microvasculature on swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography in acute central serous chorioretinopathy.

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the retinal blood flow in patients with acute central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) over an observational period of 1 month using swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCTA), focusing especially on changes in the area of subretinal fluid (A-SRF). We correlated these findings with conventional indocyanine green angiography (ICGA). ICGA and SS-OCTA images were collected and analyzed of 12 eyes of 12 patients.

Prospective comparison of apex-centered vs standard pupil-centered femtosecond laser-assisted capsulotomy in cataract surgery.

Purpose: To compare the lens tilt after apex-centered capsulotomy with standard pupil-centered capsulotomy.

Setting: Clinical practice.

Design: Prospective, randomized, investigator-masked trial.
