Purpose: To evaluate the visual outcomes in high myopic eyes undergoing clear lens extraction with intra ocular implant.
Material And Methods: 33 high myopic eyes (range: -10 to -25 D) underwent clear corneal lens extraction and implantation of posterior chamber intraocular lens.
Results: 84,84 % myopic eyes had postoperative corrected visual acuity > 0,3. In 1 case we had a posterior capsular rupture during the insertion of IOL, requiring a sulcus fixation of the IOL. In 3 eyes we had opacification of the posterior capsule.
Conclusions: 1. Clear lens extraction with PC-IOL performed in high myopic eye at adults older than 45 years is a safe and effective refractive procedure. 2. Preoperative patient education and counseling regarding visual is critical in maximizing patient satisfaction. 3. The functional results depend on the chorioretinal myopic lesions.

The Impact of Changing Physicians on Compliance with Management of Myopia Progression.

Medical Faculty, University of Basel, Switzerland.
Background: The global incidence of high myopia is increasing, with projections indicating a rise from 3 to 10% of the global population by 2050. Effective treatment options exist to reduce myopia progression, but their success is contingent on patient adherence. This study assesses the impact of changes in treating physicians on adherence to therapy to control myopia progression.

Background: Uncorrected refractive error is reported to be the most common cause globally of vision impairment in school age children. However, little is known about the extent of uncorrected refractive error in Israel. The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of vision impairment in schoolchildren recruited for the Israel Refraction, Environment, And Devices (iREAD) Study.

Chatbot-based multimodal AI holds promise for collecting medical histories and diagnosing ophthalmic diseases using textual and imaging data. This study developed and evaluated the ChatGPT-powered Intelligent Ophthalmic Multimodal Interactive Diagnostic System (IOMIDS) to enable patient self-diagnosis and self-triage. IOMIDS included a text model and three multimodal models (text + slit-lamp, text + smartphone, text + slit-lamp + smartphone).

Purpose: To determine whether imaging features derived from fundus photographs contain 3D eye shape information beyond that available from spherical equivalent refraction (SER).
Methods: We analysed 99 eyes of 68 normal adults in the UK Biobank. An ellipsoid was fitted to the entire volume of each posterior eye (vitreous chamber without the lens)-segmented from magnetic resonance imaging of the brain.
