Purpose: To investigate the effect of tamsulosin on iris morphology, ciliary muscle thickness (CMT), pupil diameter (PD), and pupil responses to light using anterior segment optical coherence tomography and corneal topography.
Design: Prospective clinical before-and-after study METHODS: The right eyes of 43 patients with newly diagnosed benign prostatic hyperplasia were included in this study. Iris dilator muscle region (DMR) thickness, sphincter muscle region (SMR) thickness, DMR/SMR ratio, PD (scotopic, mesopic and photopic light conditions), CMT1 (1 mm posterior to the scleral spur), CMT2 (2 mm posterior to the scleral spur), CMT3 (3 mm posterior to the scleral spur) and anterior chamber depth (ACD) were measured before and after dilation.

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the success and complication rates of retrograde intrarenal surgery for lower calyceal renal stones performed with novel tip-bendable suction ureteral access sheaths and standard ureteral access sheaths.
Methods: Between March 2023 and March 2024, a total of 88 patients underwent retrograde intrarenal surgery for lower renal calyceal stones smaller than 20 mm. Based on the access sheath used, patients were divided into two groups: Group 1 (n=43) included patients treated with novel tip-bendable suction ureteral access sheaths and Group 2 (n=45) included patients treated with standard ureteral access sheaths.
