PREDICTING THE OCCURRENCE OF PRIMARY OPEN-ANGLE GLAUCOMA DEPENDING ON THE GENETIC POLYMORPHISM ENDOTHELIAL NO SYNTHASE (NOS3) GENE.

Objective: The aim: To develop the model for predicting primary open - angle glaucoma (POAG) depending on the presence of the genetic polymorphism in the endothelial NO-synthase (NOS3) gene.

Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: The results of genotyping 153 patients (153 eyes) with POAG are included in this investigation. 47 patients were in the control group.

Comparison of three different presbyopia-correcting intraocular lenses.

to test the refractive and visual outcomes and the quality of vision after the bilateral implantation of three different multifocal intraocular lenses (MIOLs) in patients with age-related cataract. In this retrospective, comparative study including 90 eyes of 45 cataract patients, bilateral implantation of either the hydrophilic trifocal Liberty® 677MY capsular bag IOL, the hydrophilic AT LISA® tri 839M lens, or the hydrophobic AcrySof® IQ PanOptix® IOL was performed during routine cataract surgery. Refractive outcomes, visual acuities (VA) for far, intermediate and near distances, as well as visual quality, dysphotopic events and spectacle use were evaluated six months postoperatively.
