Purpose: To evaluate rotational stability and visual and refractive outcomes of supplementary toric IOLs (Sulcoflex Toric 653T, Rayner Intraocular Lenses Ltd) for residual astigmatic refractive error in pseudophakic eyes.
Methods: A retrospective interventional case series was conducted in a single surgeon practice. Charts of patients who had Sulcoflex Toric supplementary IOLs inserted between June 2009 and September 2015 were reviewed. Outcomes were compared between eyes with and without prior corneal transplant. Patients with at least 3-months follow-up were included.
Results: In 51 eyes, mean UDVA improved from 20/86 to 20/43 (p = 0.002), though UDVA was better in eyes without corneal grafts (20/31) than eyes with (20/62). The proportion of eyes achieving 20/20 UDVA was 43%, 61% and 17% overall, in eyes with prior graft and in eyes with no prior graft, respectively. Sixty-four percentage achieved a spherical equivalent of within 0.5D of target (84% no graft, 34% prior graft). Fifty-three percentage of eyes achieved a cylinder of within 0.5D of target (no graft: 73%, prior graft: 0%). Mean lens rotation was 8.23° on day 1, and mean maximal rotation during follow-up was 17.63°. Sixty-two percentage of IOLs required repositioning. Of those that required repositioning, this was conducted a mean of 2.3 times. The mean final IOL rotation (following repositioning if required) was 6.17°.
Conclusion: Sulcoflex Toric supplementary IOLs result in good visual and refractive outcomes in eyes with no prior corneal graft. However, outcomes are sub-optimal in eyes with prior corneal transplantation, and the majority of lenses require repositioning.

Altered neural signaling in fibromyalgia syndrome (FM) was investigated with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). We employed a novel fMRI network analysis method, Structural and Physiological Modeling (SAPM), which provides more detailed information than previous methods. The study involved brain fMRI data from participants with FM (N = 22) and a control group (HC, N = 18), acquired during a noxious stimulation paradigm.

The characterization of how precisely we perceive visual speed has traditionally relied on psychophysical judgments in discrimination tasks. Such tasks are often considered laborious and susceptible to biases, particularly without the involvement of highly trained participants. Additionally, thresholds for motion-in-depth perception are frequently reported as higher compared to lateral motion, a discrepancy that contrasts with everyday visuomotor tasks.

Purpose: To evaluate the severity distribution of chemical burn-induced Limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD) according to the novel global consensus classification and to compare the treatment approach, before and after the global consensus.
Methods: Medical records of 127 eyes of 109 patients with LSCD were included. LSCD stages were categorized according to the global consensus classification published by "International LSCD Working Group".

Purpose: To comprehensively evaluate the tilt of the crystalline lens in phakic eyes and its relationship with optical biometry parameters.
Setting: The retrospective analysis was conducted at the Department for Ophthalmology and Optometry, Kepler University Clinic in Linz, Austria.
Design: Lens tilt assessment was performed through a combined analysis of optical biometry (IOL Master 700) and anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) data to understand its relationship.

Terahertz (THz) waves reside in the electromagnetic spectrum between the microwave and infrared bands. In recent decades, THz technology has demonstrated its potential for biomedical applications. With the highly unique characteristics of THz waves, such as the high sensitivity to water and optimal spatial resolution coupled with the characteristics of the human cornea, such as its high water content, THz technology has been explored as a potential modality to assess corneas and corneal diseases.
