The long-term association between professional athletic training and ocular microvascular characteristics remains unclear. This cross-sectional study compared retinal and choroidal optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) parameters between 31...
Dry eye disease (DED) is a prevalent ocular surface disorder with diverse clinical presentations, yet the comparative efficacy of various Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) formulations remains unclear. This systematic review and network meta-analysi...
Background: This study aimed to determine the prevalence of symptomatic dry eye among medical students and identify associated demographic and psychological factors. Methods: A cross-sectional online survey was conducted among medical students enroll...
Purpose: To characterize short-term outer retinal changes in silicone oil-filled eyes after primary macula-involving rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) repair using en face and cross-sectional optical coherence tomography (OCT), and to examine t...
Clinical relevance: Vernier acuity (VA) is a common clinical metric used to evaluate cortical visual processing and macular health that is relatively independent of typical optical limitations (such as blurring). Background: Past studies have shown t...
Sex, gender, race, ancestry, and ethnicity data are critical to ensuring an equitable, generalizable artificial intelligence (AI) framework for clinical applications in ophthalmology. The primary question is whether reporting demographic data in opht...
Introduction: Solar eclipses can cause solar retinopathy, but eclipse-related presentations may reflect public concern as well as true retinal injury. We evaluated the immediate ophthalmic service impact of the 12 August 2026 solar eclipse in the Uni...
Purpose: To investigate the association between preoperative personality traits and subjective quality of vision six months after bilateral trifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. Methods: This prospective, single-center study included 66 patie...
(1) Background: Congenital cataract is a rare but severe childhood ocular disorder that can lead to permanent visual impairment if left untreated. Factors influencing long-term visual outcomes are insufficiently defined. The aim of this study was to...
Conjunctival lymphoma classically appears as a painless salmon-pink subepithelial infiltrate, but its indolent forms can closely imitate inflammatory ocular surface disease and delay diagnosis, particularly when an uncommon subtype such as small lymp...
To compare oculomotor profiles among children wearing orthokeratology, defocus spectacle, and diffusion optics technology lenses in a routine pediatric myopia management setting. This real-world observational study included children who had worn one...
Diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of preventable sight loss. The United Kingdom achieves high overall uptake through organised diabetic eye screening programmes, but aggregate performance may conceal inequalities. This systematic review synthes...
Background: Early detection of vision problems in young children is crucial, as they may lead to lifelong disabilities such as amblyopia and strabismus. However, conducting visual acuity (VA) evaluations in this age group is challenging. We developed...
The purpose of this study was to quantitatively evaluate the effects of a three-wavelength-cut (TWC) lens, a type of wavelength-control lens, on cone contrast sensitivity in healthy adults using ColorDx CCT-HD (KONAN MEDICAL, Inc.). TWC lenses select...
Myopia is a growing public health problem expected to affect half the global population by 2050, making appropriate management of the condition necessary. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the knowledge and practices of South Af...
(1) Background: During fine motor object manipulation, head orientation towards the workspace allows the small receptive fields in our cone-rich fovea to perceive details required to complete the task. Here, we investigated whether a head orientation...
Purpose: To characterize ophthalmology research output relative to disease burden and national economic capacity after accounting for population size. Methods: We analyzed Scopus publications, Global Burden of Disease disability-adjusted life years (...
Neovascular age-related macular degeneration is a retinal disease of older adults causing central vision loss associated with macular neovascularization. Treatment response is commonly evaluated using visual acuity and retinal morphology. These measu...
Ocular trauma represents a threat to crew safety and mission performance in space. Microgravity, confined environments, and exposure to particulate matter, chemicals, and mechanical hazards place astronauts at risk for corneal abrasions, open-globe i...
