Incidence and analysis of intraoperative complications in femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery: a large-scale cohort study to establish the learning curve
CONCLUSIONS: The intraoperative complications of FLACS were reported, and the learning curve is associated with a significant reduction in the incidence of intraoperative complications. The length of the basic learning curve of FLACS is 100 cases, and the length of the advanced learning curve was 150 cases. This study demonstrated that FLACS is characterised by a relatively straightforward and secure operative technique.PMID:38589209 | DOI:10.1136/bjo-2023-323897 (Source: The British Journal of Ophthalmology)

A practical approach to uveitis screening in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis
CONCLUSION: By removing the need for the knowledge of JIA categories, antinuclear antibody positivity or treatment status, the recommendations can be more easily implemented by local ECP, where limited information is available. It would improve the standard of care on the local level significantly. The proposed protocol is less tailored to the individual than the 'gold standard' ones it references and does not aim to substitute those where they are being used with confidence.PMID:38575198 | DOI:10.1136/bjo-2023-324406 (Source: The British Journal of Ophthalmology)

Femtosecond laser-assisted astigmatic keratotomy versus toric IOL implantation for correcting astigmatism in cataract patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis with trial sequential analysis
CONCLUSIONS: For cataract patients, both FSAK and toric IOLs are effective methods for correcting astigmatism. However, toric IOLs offer less postoperative astigmatism and result in better postoperative UDVA compared with FSAK. In vector analysis of astigmatism, toric IOLs can also produce higher TIA and SIA. Additionally, neither method is associated with severe untreatable complications. Therefore, the conclusion is that toric IOLs are the preferred choice for astigmatism correction in cataract patients and FSAK serves as a viable alternative when toric IOLs are contraindicated.PMID:38575199 | DOI:10.1136/bjo-2024-325195...

Choriocapillaris flow features in children with myopic anisometropia
CONCLUSIONS: The choroid in the macular region becomes thinner and the total number of flow voids in the nasal macular region decreased with the amplitude of myopia. This suggests that a decrease in total number of flow voids may indicate an early change in myopia.PMID:38527770 | DOI:10.1136/bjo-2022-323020 (Source: The British Journal of Ophthalmology)
