Reflux, Intraocular Pressure Variation and Pain Following Intravitreal Ranibizumab Injections Using 30-Gauge or 32-Gauge Needles for Patients With Retinal Pathologies: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

Purpose: To compare reflux, intraocular pressure (IOP) variation and pain following intravitreal (IV) injections using 30-gauge and 32-gauge needles in patients with retinal pathologies in Saudi Arabia.

Methods: A double-blind randomized clinical trial was conducted in 2018. Participants were randomized to receive IV injections of Ranibizumab using 30-gauge (Gr) or 32-gauge (Gr) needles.

Measuring intraocular antibodies in eyes treated with anti-vascular endothelial growth factor.

Objective: To characterize the total intraocular aqueous humour antibody profiles in cases receiving anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) for retinal vascular disease compared with controls without retinal pathology.

Design: Cross-sectional.

Participants: 93 aqueous humour samples: 22 eyes undergoing cataract surgery (controls) and 71 eyes receiving intravitreal injections (IVI) (cases) for macular edema or neovascularization.

Intraocular calcidiol: Uncovering a role for vitamin D in the eye.

Unlabelled: Vitamin D has emerged as a potentially important molecule in ophthalmology. To date, all ophthalmic data pertaining to vitamin D has been restricted primarily to tear and serum analysis in human patients. Considering the isolated nature of the eye, we sought to determine the presence of intraocular vitamin D in ocular disease.
