A case of iridoschisis with partial lens dislocation in both eyes.

Background: Iridoschisis is a rare condition that primarily affects individuals aged 60-70 years. The predominant characteristics of iridoschisis involve the tissue splitting and separation of the iris stromal layers, often resulting in two distinct layers and the presence of floating fibers in the anterior chamber. This article reports the case of a 48-year-old male with iridoschisis with partial lens dislocation in both eyes.

A novel mutation in , causative of autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa, using the BGISEQ-500 sequencer.

Aim: To study the genes responsible for retinitis pigmentosa.

Methods: A total of 15 Chinese families with retinitis pigmentosa, containing 94 sporadically afflicted cases, were recruited. The targeted sequences were captured using the Target_Eye_365_V3 chip and sequenced using the BGISEQ-500 sequencer, according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Effectiveness of meibomian gland massage combined with topical levofloxacin against ocular surface flora in patients before penetrating ocular surgery.

Objective: To investigate the bacterial profile in the conjunctiva and meibomian glands in patients before penetrating ocular surgeries, and to compare the anti-bacterial efficacy of 0.5% levofloxacin and its combination with meibomian gland massage.

Design: Hospital-based, case-control study.

Bacteriological profile of ocular surface flora in meibomian gland dysfunction.

Purpose: To compare the bacteriological profile of meibomian gland secretion and conjunctival cul-de-sac in subjects with and without meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD).

Methods: This hospital-based study enrolled 201 eyes from 201 MGD patients and 84 eyes from 84 age- and gender-matched controls. Samples from the conjunctivae and meibomian gland secretion were obtained.
