Purpose: Using a fully automated multitask deep learning method, which enabled simultaneous segmentation and quantification of all major anterior segment structures with swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT), we aimed to investigate the three-dimensional (3D) alterations in iris morphology before and after implantable collamer lens (ICL) surgery.

Methods: All enrolled patients underwent anterior segment SS-OCT (ANTERION) within one week before and after ICL surgery. A multitask network automatically performed iris SS-OCT image segmentation and quantitative measurements of 3D iris morphology (iris thickness and volume of the inner 1-mm annular area and the outer 1-2-mm annular area, iris curvature [I-Curve], and iris smooth index [SI]).

Results: Forty-six eyes of 27 patients (average age, 26.0 ± 5.3 years) were included in the final data analysis. The spherical equivalent ranged from -15.75 to -4.00 diopters (D). The mean ICL vault values were 537.92 ± 161.69 μm, which positively and significantly correlated with the pre- ( = 0.333,  = 0.024) and postoperative ( = 0.351,  = 0.017) anterior chamber depth (ACD). The mean pupil diameter significantly decreased, whereas both ACD and lens thickness significantly increased postoperatively. The iris thickness, iris volume of the inner 1-mm annular area and the outer 1-2-mm annular area, and SI decreased significantly within one week after ICL implantation. All mean values of the I-Curve increased dramatically postoperatively.

Conclusion: Iris morphology, ACD, and lens thickness were significantly altered after ICL implantation.

Purpose: To compare changes in angle morphology, anterior chamber depth (ACD) and refractive prediction error (PE) after phacoemulsification between pseudoexfoliative (PEX) and non-PEX eyes.

Methods: Prospective case-control study of eyes submitted to cataract surgery. Biometric data and angle parameters - Anterior Chamber Angle (ACA), Angle Opening Distance (AOD), Scleral Spur Angles (SSA) and Trabecular Iris Space Area (TISA) - were measured preoperatively and 1-month postoperatively through swept-source anterior segment optical coherence tomography.

Whole exome sequencing reveals ABCD1 variant as a potential contributor to male infertility.

Mol Biol Rep

January 2025

Laboratory of Genomics and Human Genetics, Institut Pasteur du Maroc, Casablanca, Morocco.

Background: Male infertility (MI) is a polygenic condition mainly induced by spermatogenic failure/arrest or systemic disease with a large clinical spectrum. Lately, genetic sequencing allowed the identification of several variants implicated in both aforesaid situations.

Methods And Results: In this case study, we performed whole exome sequencing (WES) on the genomic DNA of a 37-year-old Moroccan man with Non-Obstructive Azoospermia.

Background: With globalization, oculoplastic surgeons must understand the intricate morphological nuances of the periocular region across ethnicities to ensure precise treatment and avoid facial disharmony or dysfunction. Direct comparisons in two-dimensional (2D)-based periocular morphology between studies can be challenging due to the limited number of parameters and complicated variations in equipment, environments, measurement personnel, and methods. Therefore, it is imperative to explore the detailed three-dimensional (3D) periocular morphological disparities between young Caucasian and Chinese populations.
