Objective: To obverse visual acuity, visual symptom and the rate of spectacle independence after implantation of a multifocal intraocular lens (MIOL) in patients with age related cataract.
Methods: Sixty patients (68 eyes) with age-related cataract were enrolled in two groups. ReSTOR SA60D3 MIOL and Natural SN60AT monofocal intraocular lens were specially implanted after phacoemulsification. Uncorrected distance visual acuity (UCDVA), best-corrected distance visual acuity (BCDVA), uncorrected near visual acuity (UCNVA), best-corrected near visual acuity (BCNVA), distance-corrected near vision acuity (DCNVA), visual symptom and the rate of spectacle independence were observed.
Results: UCDVA and BCDVA in multifocal group were not statistically different from those in monofocal group (P > 0.05). UCNVA and DCNVA were statistically better in multifocal group than in monofocal group (P < 0.05). The multifocal group has higher rate of spectacle independence than the monofocal group (73.3% versus 13.3%) (P < 0.05) when reading. The visual symptom such as glare and halo were more serious in multifocal group than in monofocal group (P < 0.05).
Conclusions: Acrysof ReSTOR apodized diffractive multifocal intraocular lens may provide an excellent distance and near visual acuity, and decrease the dependence of spectacle.

A septuagenarian man presented with a visual acuity of hand motions and a large refractory macular hole (MH). We performed an autologous retinal transplant (ART) and covered the graft with fibrin glue without any endotamponade. The autograft was found to have dislocated from the MH when the patient was reviewed 1 week later.

Purpose: Color vision deficiency (CVD) is a common vision disorder. It is predominantly caused by inherited photopigment abnormalities in the retina. The absolute number of cases with CVD is expected to increase worldwide with the growing population.

Background: Nineteen-year follow-up after initial examination on patients with Axenfeld-Rieger anomaly or syndrome (ARAS) and coexisting Fuchs' endothelial dystrophy (FED). All individuals had previously been tested positive for the PITX2 (g.20 913 G>T) mutation.

Purpose: Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) has emerged as a novel approach in corneal transplantation over the past two decades. This study aims to identify predisposing risk factors for post-DMEK ocular hypertension (OHT) and develop a preoperative predictive model for post-DMEK OHT.
Methods: Patients who underwent DMEK at Gangnam Severance Hospital between 2017 and 2024 were included in the study.

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of weekly adalimumab (ADA) treatment in non-infectious uveitis (NIU) patients, including both pediatric and adult populations, and identify factors influencing treatment efficacy.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study at two hospitals in Türkiye included 51 NIU patients (29 children, 22 adults) who escalated from bi-weekly to weekly ADA due to inadequate disease control. Data on six clinical parameters (anterior chamber reaction, vitreous haze, visual acuity, central macular thickness [CMT], prednisone use, uveitis flare-up frequency), adverse effects, and treatment-related factors were collected.
