Visual outcomes of non-diffractive extended-depth-of-focus and enhanced monofocal intraocular lenses: A case-control study.

Objective: To compare the visual outcomes of a non-diffractive extended-depth-of-focus (EDoF) intraocular lens (IOL) with an enhanced monofocal IOL.

Methods: We evaluated 76 eyes from 38 patients who had undergone bilateral cataract surgery with implantation of either an EDoF IOL (AcrySof IQ Vivity, n = 40 eyes) or an enhanced monofocal IOL (Tecnis Eyhance, n = 36 eyes). Objective refraction, monocular and binocular uncorrected and corrected distance visual acuity (UDVA, CDVA), uncorrected and distance-corrected intermediate visual acuity (UIVA, DCIVA), uncorrected and distance-corrected near visual acuity (UNVA, DCNVA), binocular defocus curves, contrast sensitivity, halo and glare perception, and spectacle independence were compared.

Flanged iris hook for capsular bag stabilization.

A new surgical technique was demonstrated for fixating the capsular bag to the sclera using a capsular tension segment (CTS) and a flanged iris hook. In a patient with a 180-degree zonular dialysis, a capsular tension ring was implanted into the capsular bag, and a CTS was placed into the zonular dialysis area after cataract removal. Then, an iris hook was directed to the anterior chamber through a side port opposite the zonular dialysis area.

The efficacy and safety profile of cataract procedures performed with a sensor-embedded handpiece and a new hybrid phaco tip.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the new Intrepid Hybrid tip and Active Sentry handpiece in comparison to the Intrepid Balanced tip and Centurion Ozil handpiece.

Methods: One hundred sixty-eight eyes were included in the study and randomized into Group 1 (Active Sentry handpiece + Intrepid Hybrid tip, n = 86) and Group 2 (Centurion Ozil handpiece + Intrepid Balanced tip, n = 82). Data were collected from the phaco device, including total U/S time, cumulative dissipated energy (CDE), the total number of active surge mitigation actuations (ASM actuations), torsional amplitude, torsional amplitude on time, estimated fluid of aspirated, and aspiration time.

New Scleral Fixation Technique for Subluxated Posterior Chamber İntraocular Lens.

Objectives: This study describes a new scleral fixation technique to treat a subluxated intraocular lens (IOL).

Methods: Four eyes of 4 patients were treated for a subluxated IOL with the described technique at Batigoz Eye Hospital. Demographic data, IOL type, and follow-up details were recorded, including the length of follow-up, postoperative refraction error, and complications.

Results of a novel surgical technique for iridodialysis repair using an iris retractor segment.

Purpose: To describe a novel surgical technique for iridodialysis repair using an iris retractor segment and report its clinical results.

Methods: Fifty-three eyes of 53 patients who underwent iridodialysis repair using an iris retractor segment were enrolled in this retrospective study. Data recorded from patient files consisted of age, sex, degree of iridodialysis, surgical techniques, number of segments used, preoperative and postoperative corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), intraocular pressure (IOP), complications, and follow-up time.

Outcomes of a new suture technique for the treatment of dislocated intraocular lenses: locked loop on the haptic.

Purpose: To evaluate surgical and refractive outcomes of a new sutured scleral fixation technique in the management of subluxated intraocular lenses (IOLs).

Methods: Nineteen eyes treated with the new scleral fixation technique were included. The mean corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), postoperative refraction error, mean endothelial cell count (ECC), and complications were recorded.

Comparison of new monofocal innovative and standard monofocal intraocular lens after phacoemulsification.

Purpose: To evaluate the early findings of new monofocal intraocular lens (Tecnis Eyhance) in comparison with standard monofocal intraocular lens (Tecnis 1-piece) in patients who underwent cataract surgery.

Methods: Sixty-four eyes of thirty-two patients (each intraocular lens model was implanted bilaterally in 16 patients) were included in this retrospective study. Preoperative and postoperative (at one month) manifest refraction, spherical equivalent (SE) values, monocular and binocular uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (UCIVA), distance-corrected intermediate visual acuity (DCIVA), distance-corrected near visual acuity (DCNVA), binocular defocus curve, photopic contrast-sensitivity, spectacle independence, photic phenomena, tolerance to residual refractive errors and complications were recorded.

The influence of selective laser trabeculoplasty on the success of trabeculectomy.

Purpose: The purpose of this to investigate whether selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) has any effect on the success of trabeculectomy.

Patients And Methods: Thirteen-one eyes of 29 primary open-angle glaucoma patients who underwent SLT before trabeculectomy and 29 eyes of 27 patients with the same inclusion criteria which underwent trabeculectomy without prior SLT in the Sifa University and in the Batigöz Eye Hospital in January 2012 and November 2012 were reviewed. All patients underwent trabeculectomy for uncontrolled open-angle glaucoma with the same technique.

Evaluation of the effect of daily activities on intraocular pressure in healthy people: is the 20 mmHg border safe?

Purpose: The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate the intraocular pressure (IOP) variations during daily activities such as reading, speaking and carrying in regard to investigating whether an elevation or decrease exists.

Subjects And Methods: Forty-four eyes of 44 healthy subjects were evaluated. The IOP was measured in relaxation and after reading, speaking and carrying a shopping bag for 5 min on different days, respectively.

Evaluation of Different Power of Near Addition in Two Different Multifocal Intraocular Lenses.

Purpose. To compare near, intermediate, and distance vision and quality of vision, when refractive rotational multifocal intraocular lenses with 3.0 diopters or diffractive multifocal intraocular lenses with 2.

Intraocular lens implantation without the use of ophthalmic viscosurgical device.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether single-piece hydrophilic acrylic intraocular lens can be safely implanted without the use of ophthalmic viscosurgical devices. This retrospective study comprised 100 eyes having phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation without the use of ophthalmic viscosurgical device. 80 eyes with the use of a viscosurgical device are used as control group.
