Contrast Adaptation in Pseudophakic Patients with Macular Disorders
CONCLUSION: Patients with mild and moderate macular disorders, such as AMD and ERM, show an induced contrast adaptation, i.e. a gain in contrast sensitivity, at 3.2 cpd, which is not different in level from the induced contrast adaptation in healthy subjects. Macular disorders do not prevent adaptation of the patient's visual system to low contrast or blurred retinal images. Therefore, the implantation of presbyopia correcting IOLs is not a strict exclusion criterion for these patients, but the progressive nature of the macular disorder must be taken into account.PMID:37933837 | DOI:10.1080/02713683.2023.2273196 (Source: Current Eye Research)

Short-Term Effect of Rose Bengal Photodynamic Therapy (RB-PDT) on Collagen I, Collagen V, NF- κB, LOX, TGF-β and IL-6 Expression of Human Corneal Fibroblasts, < em > In  Vitro < /em >
CONCLUSIONS: Our study demonstrates that RB-PDT reduces collagen I, collagen V and TGF-β1 mRNA expression, while increasing IL-6 mRNA and protein expression in KC-HCFs. In HCFs, RB-PDT increases TGF-β1 and IL-6 protein level after 24 h.PMID:37921272 | DOI:10.1080/02713683.2023.2276057 (Source: Current Eye Research)

The Outcomes of Involutional Ptosis Surgeries in a Single Tertiary Center
CONCLUSIONS: We report the success rate of a large cohort of primary involutional ptosis surgery performed at the ophthalmic-specialist tertiary center. The success and complication rates are comparable to the literature at 90% and 1%, respectively. Redo surgeries were more frequently required when performed by junior surgeons compared to the consultants, whereas the patient satisfaction level did not differ between different grades of surgeons.PMID:37921352 | DOI:10.1080/02713683.2023.2277137 (Source: Current Eye Research)
