Distinct Ocular Surface Microbiome in Keratoconus Patients Correlate With Local Immune Dysregulation.
Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci
January 2025
GROW Research Laboratory, Narayana Netralaya Foundation, Bangalore, India.
Purpose: Keratoconus (KC) is characterized by irregular astigmatism along with corneal stromal weakness and is associated with altered immune status. Tissue resident microbiomes are known to influence the immune status in other organs, but such a nexus has not been described in ocular conditions. Therefore, we examined the ocular surface microbiome of patients with KC and correlated it to the immune cell and tear molecular factor profiles.

Department of Ophthalmology, University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, California. Electronic address:
Purpose To determine the corneal topographic characteristics of children with blepharokeratoconjunctivitis (BKC), a chronic inflammatory ocular surface disease involving the lid margin, conjunctiva, and cornea. Methods The corneal topography of 21 children diagnosed with BKC between March 2008 and June 2019 at a single institution were reviewed retrospectively. Pachymetry and asymmetry indices were also analyzed.

Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University (F.A.), Philadelphia, PA; and Wilmer Eye Institute (L.D.M., K.B., A.C.), Baltimore, MD.
Objective: To determine if scleral fittings that occur before corneal cross-linking (CXL) are still successful after the procedure.
Methods: This prospective study included seven patients with keratoconus or post-laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) corneal ectasia who were fitted with scleral lenses then underwent CXL. Four patients (six eyes) had keratoconus and three patients (five eyes) had post-LASIK ectasia.
A study on the variability and correlation of ocular biological measurement parameters in adult myopic patients.
Front Med (Lausanne)
January 2025
Shenzhen Eye Institute, Shenzhen Eye Hospital, Jinan University, Shenzhen, Guangdong, China.
Objective: This study aims to explore the differences in ocular parameters among adult myopic patients with different degrees of myopia and axial lengths, and to investigate the correlations between these ocular parameters.
Methods: This single-center observational study collected clinical data from myopic patients aged 18-45 years who visited the Eye Hospital of Nanjing Medical University between January and June 2023. The data included laterality, diopter of spherical power (DS), diopter of cylindrical power (DC), spherical equivalent (SE), axial length (AL), central corneal thickness (CCT), flat meridian keratometry (K1), steep meridian keratometry (K2), mean keratometry (Km), anterior chamber depth (ACD), corneal radius of curvature (CRC), and axial length/corneal radius of curvature ratio (AL/CRC).
Changes in Retinal Oxygen Saturation 1 Month After Femtosecond LASIK Treatment in Chinese Adults with Myopia.

January 2025
Eye School of Chengdu, University of Traditional Medicine, Chengdu, 510100, Sichuan Province, China.
Introduction: This study aimed to compare changes in retinal oxygen saturation 1 month after femtosecond-assisted laser in situ keratomileusis (FS-LASIK) in Chinese adults with myopia using retinal oximetry.
Methods: In this prospective, observational, single-center cohort study, Chinese adults aged 18-45 years with myopia were categorized into four groups according to spherical equivalent (SE), with 66 eyes characterized as low myopia (LM -3.00D < SE ≤ -0.
