Assessing the impact of FLACS on surgical outcomes
August 09, 2017By Dr Andrzej Grzybowski, Dr Piotr Kanclerz
FLACS is related to an increase of anterior chamber prostaglandin and cytokines, resulting in intra-operative miosis. This can be prevented by pre-operative non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug application. As a result of methodological problems, several studies on the association between femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery and cystoid macular oedema are inconclusive.Studying aqueous humour outflow with aqueous angiography

At her periodic eye examination, a female patient in her early 70s was discovered to have low-risk macular degeneration in each eye. Further evaluation revealed that her visual acuity (VA) was correctable to 20/25 in each eye.Year brings advances in retinal imaging, screening, and gene/drug therapies
December 09, 2015By Lynda Charters
The topics of special interest to retina specialists during 2015 include optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) and screening for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). Important research is taking place to determine the etiology of angiogenesis, possibly leading to targeting therapies in age-related macular degeneration (AMD), ROP, and diabetic retinopathy.Intravitreal bevacizumab: Improved vascular pattern after treatment in ROP
