Purpose: To compare the apparent chord mu between hyperopia and myopia cases and investigate the usefulness of iris barycenter configurations as an alternative for performing kappa angle distance calculations.
Methods: This prospective study evaluated 394 eyes of 197 patients classified into two groups according to their spherical equivalent values: the myopic (mean spherical equivalent refraction ≤ - 0.50 D) and the hyperopia group (mean spherical equivalent refraction ≥ + 0.50 D). The two groups were further subdivided according to severity (myopic group: mild, ≤ - 0.50 and ≤ - 3.00 D; moderate, < - 3.00 and ≤ - 6.00 D; severe, < - 6.00 D; hyperopic group: mild, ≥ + 0.50 and ≤ + 2.00 D; moderate, > + 2.00 and ≤ + 4.00 D; severe, > + 4.00 D). The pupil and iris barycenter distance measurements and other parameters were obtained through optical low-coherence reflectometry.
Results: Of the 197 patients, 109 (55.3%) were female and 88 (44.7%) were male individuals; their ages ranged from 7 to 60 years (mean, 35.16 ± 14.75 years). The average pupil barycenter distances were 0.38 ± 0.15 and 0.21 ± 0.11 mm in hyperopia and myopia patients, respectively (p < 0.01). Corneal and lens thickness measurements were higher in hyperopia patients (p < 0.01, p < 0.01, respectively), whereas anterior chamber depth and pupil diameter measurements were higher in myopia patients (p < 0.01, p < 0.01, respectively). No significant difference in astigmatism or white-to-white measurements was observed between hyperopia and myopia patients (p > 0.05).
Conclusion: The measurements for the apparent chord mu of the pupil and iris barycenter origins were higher in hyperopic than in myopic cases.

Background: This study aimed to comprehensively explore the thickness and topographic distributions of retinal vessel alterations of different myopic eyes by using swept-source OCT angiography (SS-OCTA).
Methods: One hundred myopes were included in this observational cross-sectional study. All participants underwent a series of ocular examinations of biometrical parameters, including spherical equivalent refraction (SER), axial length (AL), intraocular pressure (IOP), curvature radius (CR), and others.
Visual Performance Correlation with Corneal Aberrometric Profile and Pupil Size After Implantation of a Trifocal Hydrophobic IOL.

Purpose: To evaluate clinical outcomes obtained after cataract surgery involving the implantation of a trifocal hydrophobic intraocular lens (IOL) and to determine if pupil size and the corneal aberrometric profile correlate to visual acuity at different distances.
Methods: 49 patients (98 eyes) underwent bilateral cataract surgery with the placement of FineVision HP IOLs for presbyopia and were assessed at 1- and 3- to 6-months post-surgery. Postoperatively, refraction, monocular and binocular uncorrected and corrected distance visual acuity (UDVA and CDVA), uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (UIVA), uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA) and the binocular defocus curve were measured.

To compare the postoperative outcomes after combined phacovitrectomy for epiretinal membrane and cataract (combined group) vs standalone phacoemulsification (control group). A systematic literature search of Ovid MEDLINE, CINAHL, and the Cochrane Library was performed. The primary outcomes were the refractive predictive error and mean absolute error expressed as the spherical equivalent.

Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the long-term outcomes of scleral fixation of aniridic black diaphragm intraocular lenses (BDIOL) in 38 eyes affected by aniridia and aphakia due to trauma or congenital conditions.
- After an average follow-up of 28 months, there was a significant improvement in visual acuity, and patients reported reduced glare and photophobia, though some experienced complications like elevated intraocular pressure and corneal decompensation.
- The findings suggest that scleral fixation of BDIOL is an effective solution for patients lacking capsular support, providing good vision quality with a low rate of complications, regardless of prior surgical history.
