Optical and clinical outcomes of a new diffractive trifocal intraocular lens Open
Purpose To optically characterize and clinically evaluate the new trifocal AT ELANA 841P intraocular lens (IOL). Methods The optical imaging performance was assessed using an on-bench model eye through the Through-Focus Modulation Transfer…
Real-World Outcomes of Allogeneic Immunosafe Plasma Rich in Growth Factors Eye Drops for Refractory Ocular Surface Diseases: A Prospective Observational Study Open
Allogeneic is-ePRGF was a safe and effective alternative for refractory OSD when autologous sources were not available or suitable. Standardization of regulatory frameworks for allogeneic blood-based therapies is needed to support broader …
Optical and Visual Outcomes of a New Refractive Extended Depth of Focus Intraocular Lens Open
Purpose To characterize the optical design and analyze the optical quality and halo induced by the new extended depth of focus (EDOF) TECNIS PureSee intraocular lens (IOL) (Johnson & Johnson Surgical Vision) and to evaluate its clinical pe…
Pseudochamber-Protected Keratoplasty (PPK) with a New Inter-Corneal Surgical Device Implant Technique in High-Risk Cases Open
Background/Objectives: To describe the pseudochamber-protected keratoplasty (PPK) procedure with the new Endo-K Pro® implant technique and report the clinical outcomes in patients at high risk for penetrating keratoplasty (PKP). Methods: T…
An effective method for culturing functional human corneal endothelial cells using a xenogeneic free culture medium Open
Endothelial dysfunction is a leading cause of corneal blindness in developed countries and the only available treatment is the endothelial transplantation. However, the limited availability of suitable donors remains a significant challeng…
Modified Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty Technique to Rescue Failed Penetrating Keratoplasty Open
Our results suggest that modified DALK in patients with GF after PK, preserving a healthy endothelium, is surgically feasible. However, further studies are needed to compare this procedure to PK and other DALK technique variations.

A Simple, Safe, and Effective Method for Preparing Autologous Bio-Based Fibrin Glue for Ophthalmic Use Open
This study proposes a method to prepare autologous bio-based fibrin glue (FG) for use in ophthalmic surgery. FGs containing three fibrinogen concentrations and a thrombin concentrate were prepared using human blood from five donors (FG1: p…
Three-year follow-up of posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens with a central port design after deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty Open
Background To evaluate clinical outcomes of the Visian implantable collamer lens (ICL) with a central port to correct myopia and astigmatism after deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK) for keratoconus throughout 3 years of follow-up. …
Femto-LASIK after Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty to Correct Residual Astigmatism: A Long-Term Case Series Study Open
Purpose: To evaluate the long-term outcomes of femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (Femto-LASIK) to correct residual astigmatism after deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK). Methods: This retrospective case series study …
A New Pre-descemetic Corneal Ring (Neoring) in Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty for Moderate-Advanced Keratoconus: A Pilot 2-Year Long-Term Follow-Up Study Open
Purpose: To assess the outcomes of implanting a new polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) ring (Neoring; AJL Ophthalmic) in pre-descemet deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (PD-DALK) procedure for moderate-advanced keratoconus. Methods: This prosp…
Plasma rich in growth factors versus Mitomycin C in photorefractive keratectomy Open
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of plasma rich in growth factors (PRGF) in photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) versus Mitomycin C (MMC). This is a comparative, longitudinal and retrospective case-control study (MMC vs PRGF), in patients …
Implantation of a Trifocal Intraocular Lens in High Myopic Eyes with Nasal-Inferior Staphyloma Open
The outcomes of the present study show that a trifocal IOL provides good visual acuity in high myopic eyes, being worse for nasal-inferior staphyloma eyes. The degree of tilt of the macular plane is related with the expected visual acuity.

Visual And Refractive Outcomes In Hyperopic Pseudophakic Patients Implanted With A Trifocal Intraocular Lens Open
Bilateral implantation of a trifocal IOL in hyperopic eyes provided good visual and refractive outcomes. The Barrett Universal II formula was accurate in predicting the IOL power in hyperopic eyes.

Five-Year Follow-up of Correction of Myopia: Posterior Chamber Phakic Intraocular Lens With a Central Port Design Open
PURPOSE: To assess the long-term correction of moderate to high myopia using a posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens with a central port design. METHODS: Uncorrected (UDVA) and corrected (CDVA) distance visual acuities, refraction, int…
<i>HGF</i>-rs12536657 and Ocular Biometric Parameters in Hyperopic Children, Emmetropic Adolescents, and Young Adults: A Multicenter Quantitative Trait Study Open
Introduction . Even though ocular refractive state is highly heritable and under strong genetic control, the identification of susceptibility genes remains a challenge. Several HGF (hepatocyte growth factor) gene variants have been associa…
Plasma rich in growth factors for the treatment of rapidly progressing refractory corneal melting due to erlotinib in nonsmall cell lung cancer Open
Considering the poor results of conventional treatment, both medical and surgical, management of the inflammation of the ocular surface together with the stimulation of the healing processes through regenerative therapy such as PRGF, can b…
