Department of Ophthalmology, University of Washington, Seattle, WA.
Purpose: To evaluate associations between sociodemographic factors and surgical management in patients with Fuchs Endothelial Corneal Dystrophy (FECD).
Methods: Patients >40 years old with FECD diagnosis and subsequent corneal edema between 2007 and 2020 were identified from the American Academy of Ophthalmology IRIS Registry (Intelligent Research in Sight). Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models were fit to examine the relationships between sociodemographic variables and time from FECD diagnosis to penetrating keratoplasty (PK) and endothelial keratoplasty (EK)/PK.

Background: To evaluate the biosafety, reduction in anterior capsule opacification, and fluctuation in intraocular pressure (IOP) of a new phakic refractive lens (PRL) with a sinusoidal drainage groove design.
Methods: This self-controlled experiment was performed on eight eyes of four rabbits. Each rabbit was implanted with a sinusoidal PRL (PRL-S5) in the right eye and a conventional posterior chamber PRL (PC-PRL) in the left eye.

Background: Internal ocular diseases, such as macular edema, uveitis, and diabetic macular edema require precise delivery of therapeutic agents to specific regions within the eye. However, the eye's complex anatomical structure and physiological barriers present significant challenges to drug penetration and distribution. Traditional eye drops suffer from low bioavailability primarily due to rapid clearance mechanisms.

Cataract surgery is the most frequently performed surgery worldwide. Although it is an effective surgical treatment option for improving patients' visual acuity, various complications can occur postoperatively. One such complication is the presence of retained lens material in the anterior chamber, which can lead to intraocular inflammation, increased intraocular pressure, corneal edema, and endothelial cell loss.
