A Ti:Sapphire femtosecond laser with a pulse energy of 1.3 nJ at a 93 MHz repetition rate has been used to micro-machine optical gratings inside several silicone-based and non-silicone-based hydrogel polymers. By measuring the diffraction efficiency of the gratings at 632.8 nm, we find as large as 0.06+/- 0.005 average refractive index change within the irradiated area.

Analysis of choroidal thickness, macular thickness, peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness, and macular vascular density in children with unilateral amblyopia using swept-source optical coherence tomography and their changes following occlusion therapy.
Taiwan J Ophthalmol
June 2024
Department of Vitreo-Retina, Sankara Eye Hospital, Shimoga, Karnataka, India.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze choroidal thickness (CT), along with macular thickness (MT), peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFLT), and macular vascular density (MVD) using swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) in children with unilateral amblyopia, and compare the same with normal fellow eyes and normal eyes of normal children before and following occlusion therapy.
Materials And Methods: This was a prospective, longitudinal study of 60 children (4-18 years); 30 children had unilateral amblyopia and remaining 30 were normal. Group 1 consisted of 30 amblyopic eyes of children with unilateral amblyopia; Group 2 consisted of 30 fellow normal eyes of Group 1; Group 3 consisted of normal eyes of normal children.
Background: To determine whether accounting for posterior corneal surgically induced astigmatism (SIA) would improve toric intraocular lens power calculation prediction error.
Methods: A total of 189 eyes of 148 patients undergoing routine cataract surgery were included in the study. Standard and posterior keratometry were measured pre- and postoperatively.
Global regional and national burden of cataract attributable to high body mass index from 1990 to 2019.
BMJ Open

Department of Cataract, Shuozhou Aier Eye Hospital, Shuozhou, China
Objectives: In order to estimate long-term trends of the years lived with disability (YLDs) for cataract due to high body mass index (BMI).
Design And Participants: Data were retrieved from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2019. The global cases, age-standardised rates (ASR) of YLDs for cataract attributable to high BMI were described by age, sex, geographical location and sociodemographic index (SDI).
Cataract surgery has minimal effect on corneal shape.
BMJ Open Ophthalmol
January 2025
Department of Eye and Vision Science, University of Liverpool, Liverpool, UK.
Purpose: To quantify the effect of cataract surgery on cornea shape.
Methods: Patients undergoing cataract surgery with standardised 2.75 mm surgical incisions at 110 degrees with a side port at 50 degrees were included.
Real-world outcomes on myopia management efficacy of diverse segmented defocus optics (DSDO) and defocus incorporated multiple segments (DIMS) spectacle lenses in Chinese children: An initial 12-month prospective clinical study.

Department of Ophthalmology, Peking University People's Hospital, Beijing, China; Eye Diseases and Optometry Institute, Beijing, China; Beijing Key Laboratory of Diagnosis and Therapy of Retinal and Choroid Diseases, Beijing, China; College of Optometry, Peking University Health Science Center, Beijing, China.
Purposes: To investigate the 12-month effectiveness of Diverse Segmented Defocus Optics (DSDO) and Defocus Incorporated Multiple Segments (DIMS) spectacle lenses in a real-world clinical population in myopic and pre-myopic Chinese children.
Methods: About 364 subjects prescribed DSDO or DIMS were enrolled. Axial length (AL) and cycloplegic spherical equivalent refraction (SER) changes over 12 months were measured.
