Purpose: To evaluate visual outcomes at different distances (near, intermediate, and far), depth of focus, optical quality, quantitative dysphotopsia, and patient satisfaction in two groups.

Methods: The extended depth of focus (EDOF) only group (n = 40 eyes) was implanted bilaterally with an EDOF intraocular lens (IOL) and the mixed group (n = 40 eyes) was implanted with the same EDOF IOL in the dominant eye and a trifocal IOL in the fellow eye. At the 3-month postoperative visit, refractive outcomes and monocular and binocular uncorrected (UDVA) and corrected (CDVA) distance visual acuities for far UDVA, CDVA, distance-corrected intermediate visual acuity (DCIVA) at 80 cm, uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA), distance-corrected near visual acuity (DCNVA) at 40 cm, and binocular defocus curve were evaluated.

Results: The mean spherical equivalent (SE) 3 months postoperatively was -0.16 ± 0.41 diopters (D) in the EDOF only group and -0.39 ± 0.63 D in the mixed group. In the EDOF only group, binocular visual acuities were: UDVA = -0.04 ± 0.07 logMAR (20/18); CDVA = -0.04 ± 0.06 logMAR (20/18); DCIVA (80 cm) = 0.07 ± 0.19 logMAR (20/23); DCNVA (40 cm) = 0.32 ± 0.15 logMAR (20/42); and UNVA (40 cm) = 0.24 ± 0.17 logMAR (20/35). In the mixed group, binocular visual acuities were: UDVA = 0.03 ± 0.09 logMAR (20/21) (P = .08); CDVA = -0.01 ± 0.07 logMAR (20/20) (P = .25); DCIVA (80 cm) = 0.24 ± 0.23 logMAR (20/35) (P = .08); DCNVA (40 cm) = 0.19 ± 0.07 logMAR (20/31) (P = .03); and UNVA (40 cm) = 0.18 ± 0.10 logMAR (20/30) (P = .37).

Conclusions: Effective restoration of visual acuity was demonstrated in both groups, with high levels of visual quality and patient satisfaction. Better results in near visual acuity were demonstrated in the mixed group. [J Refract Surg. 2019;35(7):408-416.].

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.

Aims: To compare the efficiency of scleral buckling (SB) and pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with or without SB in patients with primary simple phakic fovea-splitting rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD).

Methods: A retrospective case-control study included 101 patients aged <55 years diagnosed with phakic fovea-splitting RRD. The primary outcome was functional success, defined as achieving a postoperative logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution best-corrected visual acuity of 0.

Purpose: To determine the effect on intraocular pressure (IOP) of switching to a once-daily netarsudil/latanoprost fixed dose combination (FDC) from various topical treatment regimens including latanoprost monotherapy or latanoprost combined with other IOP-lowering agents for the treatment of open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

Methods: A total of 136 participants enrolled. Eligible participants were aged ≥18 years and had a current diagnosis of open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
