Association between Axial Length to Corneal Curvature Radius Ratio and Myopia in Adult Patients
CONCLUSION: This study showed that AL and AL/CR in adult myopia patients were significantly negatively correlated with SE, and the corralation between AL/CR and SE is greater than that between AL and SE. Therefore, AL/CR can be used to analyze the dynamic changes of SE in the development of adult myopia independently of optometry on a certain basis, and it is especially suitable for the diagnosis of high myopia in adults. This trial is registered with ChiCTR2300069070.PMID:38449717 | PMC:PMC10917480 | DOI:10.1155/2024/4981095 (Source: Journal of Ophthalmology)

Longitudinal Rates of Change in Structural Parameters of Optical Coherence Tomography in Primary Angle Closure Glaucoma following Laser Iridotomy along with Peripheral Iridoplasty
CONCLUSIONS: LRC of a new parameter, BMO-MRW, and LRC of RNFL were relatively low in patients with PACG, following LI along with PI. After widening of the anterior chamber angle and decrease of IOP due to LI plus PI, PACG might show stable structural prognosis assessed by OCT.PMID:38445101 | PMC:PMC10914411 | DOI:10.1155/2024/9978354 (Source: Journal of Ophthalmology)

Transcanthal Canthopexy for Involutional Lower Eyelid Entropion Corrects Horizontal Laxity
J Ophthalmol. 2024 Feb 13;2024:4694296. doi: 10.1155/2024/4694296. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTIn this prospective observational study, we aimed to examine improvements in horizontal laxity after lower eyelid retractor advancement and transcanthal canthopexy for involutional lower eyelid entropion. The study included 19 sides in 15 patients with involutional entropion who underwent transcanthal canthopexy with the advancement of the lower eyelid retractor. Using the pinch test, the distance from the lowest part of the corneal limbus to the eyelid margin was measured using callipers. All measurements were performed preoperativ...
