Objective To compare the macular structure and microcirculation in both eyes of the patients with myopic anisometropia.Methods Optical coherence tomography angiography(OCTA)was employed to scan the macular areas in both eyes of 44 patients with myopic anisometropia.The patients were assigned into high and low groups based on the refractive diopter,and the parameters such as retinal thickness,choroidal thickness,vascular density,and perfusion density in the macular areas of both eyes were compared between the two groups.Results Other macular areas except the central and external nasal areas and the choroid of the fovea in the high group were thinner than those in the low group(all <0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in retinal vascular density or perfusion density in different areas between the two groups(all >0.05).Conclusion In the patients with myopic anisometropia,most areas of the retina in the case of high myopia is thinner than that in the case of low myopia,while there is no difference in retinal vascular density or perfusion density in both eyes.

Purpose: Autologous retinal transplantation has been successfully employed in the treatment of large and myopic macular holes that are refractory to standard surgical treatments. Patients transplanted with a peripheral neurosensory retinal graft have shown unexpected improvements in visual acuity. The study aims to investigate if neural integration of the graft takes place in a porcine model of retinal hole.

Ocular hypertension after silicone oil filling surgery for high myopia: a case-control study.

BMC Surg

January 2025

Chongqing Nanping Aier Ophthalmology, 249 Nancheng Avenue, Nanan District, Chongqing, P. R. China.

Purpose: This study aims to examine the correlation between specific clinical parameters, such as axial eye length, and the onset of ocular hypertension "OH" following the use of silicone oil filling in patients with high myopia.

Method: In this retrospective analysis, we reviewed 214 eyes from 432 patients diagnosed with severe myopia, all of whom underwent vitrectomy and were treated with silicone oil filling. The study aimed to document the incidence and timing of postoperative ocular hypertension "OH" while assessing various factors, including demographic details, medical history, additional surgical interventions, and findings from supplementary examinations (such as axial length, silicone oil emulsification, and anterior chamber penetration).

Purpose: This study aims to compare and evaluate the correlation and agreement among three distinct anterior segment analysis systems in measuring anterior chamber depth (ACD) in healthy myopic individuals.

Methods: Myopic patients who underwent preoperative assessments at our hospital's refractive surgery department from January 2021 to December 2023 were included in this investigation. ACD was measured using three anterior segment analysis systems: Pentacam, Sirius, and IOLMaster 700.

Corneal astigmatism after temporary discontinuation from long-term spherical and toric orthokeratology.

Cont Lens Anterior Eye

January 2025

Laboratory of Optometry and Vision Sciences, West China School of Medicine, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China; Department of Optometry and Vision Sciences, West China School of Medicine, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China.

Objective: To investigate changes in corneal astigmatism (curvatures and corneal sagittal height difference (C-sagDiff) at 8-mm chord) after temporary discontinuation from long-term spherical and toric orthokeratology (ortho-k) lens wear in a Chinese population.

Methods: Relevant data were retrieved from 110 patients (55 wearing spherical ortho-k lenses, 55 wearing toric ortho-k lenses) who have been undergoing ortho-k treatment for at least one year and stopped lens wear temporarily for scheduled lens replacement. The topographic and refraction data at baseline and post-discontinuation was collected for all the patients.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates risk factors for proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR), a common complication after retinal detachment surgery.
  • A large patient database was analyzed, identifying systemic (like age, gender, and smoking) and ocular (such as trauma and previous eye conditions) factors that correlate with increased PVR risk.
  • The findings emphasize the importance of considering these risk factors in surgical planning and treatment to prevent PVR in patients with retinal detachment.
