We developed an AI system capable of automatically classifying anterior eye images as either normal or indicative of corneal diseases. This study aims to investigate the influence of AI's misleading guidance on ophthalmologists' responses. This cross-sectional study included 30 cases each of infectious and immunological keratitis.

This retrospective study involved 200 eyes of 100 patients who underwent surgery for bilateral age-related cataract using an enhanced monofocal IOL (TECNIS Eyhance). The dominant eye was identified before surgery.

Data on patient demographics, lens characteristics, lens care systems, and presence of microbial keratitis were extracted from the medical records. Duration of ortho-k lens wear was calculated from the original fitting date to the patient's last visit, with the total years of lens wear used as person-years of lens wear.

- Central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) is a serious eye condition that can lead to sudden vision loss, often with low chances of recovery, as highlighted in a case of a 49-year-old woman diagnosed with non-arteritic CRAO.
- The patient received a lower-than-standard dose of intravenous rt-PA treatment shortly after the onset of her symptoms, which resulted in significant improvement of her vision and revealed a serious underlying heart condition, a patent foramen ovale (PFO).
- This case suggests that using a lower dose of tPA may be effective for treating CRAO while reducing bleeding risks, and highlights the need for thorough investigations of potential cardiac issues in younger patients with CRAO.
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the choroidal thickness (ChT) distribution in adult myopic eyes, focusing on the macular, nasal midperiphery, and temporal midperiphery regions, and to explore its relationship with axial length (AL) and refractive error.
Study Design: A cross-sectional, observational study.
Methods: Twenty-nine eyes of 29 adult volunteers were examined.
