Diagnostic and Therapeutic Strategies in Uveitis: A Clinical Approach Open
Uveitis refers to intraocular inflammation involving the uveal tract (iris, ciliary body, and choroid) and is a significant cause of ocular morbidity. It is responsible for a significant proportion of preventable vision loss worldwide. Uve…
Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography in Uveitis: Current Applications and Future Directions Open
Anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) is a non-invasive imaging modality providing high-resolution images of anterior ocular structures, aiding morphological assessments and biomarker identification in uveitis management. …
Ex Vivo Microsuturing of the Human Anterior Lens Capsule Using 10-0 Sutures: A Technical Feasibility Report Open
The human lens capsule is a robust, transparent basement membrane commonly discarded during cataract surgery. Although its use as a biological graft has gained interest in ocular surgery, practical methods for securing the capsule, such as…
Basement Membrane Alterations in Diabetic Retinopathy Open
In diabetic retinopathy (DR), alterations in the basement membrane (BM) play a pivotal role in disease progression. This chapter reviews the intricate changes occurring in the BM, a critical structural and functional element in retinal int…
Assessing the Impact of Tropicamide on Anterior Segment Parameters in Diabetic Patients: A Randomized Clinical Trial Open
Both concentrations of tropicamide exhibited comparable effects on anterior segment parameters in diabetic patients. These post-dilation changes should be considered for accurate intraocular lens power calculation and decision-making for c…
Accelerated Recovery: The Role of Oral Steroid in the Management of Herpes Zoster Ophthalmicus-Related Ophthalmoplegia Open
The use of systemic steroids in managing herpes zoster ophthalmicus-related ophthalmoplegia (HZORO) remains a topic of debate. Here, a case involving third nerve HZORO is highlighted, where a regimen of oral valacyclovir followed by a brie…

A 45-year-old immunocompetent man with a two-week history of unilateral painful red eye was referred to the university hospital for further investigation. High intraocular pressure, corneal edema, large pigmented keratic precipitates, cell…
Comparison between 90‐degree and 360‐degree selective laser trabeculoplasty (<span>SLT</span>): A 2‐year follow‐up Open
Purpose To compare the effect of 90‐ and 360‐degree selective laser trabeculoplasty ( SLT ) as primary or supplement therapy in patients with glaucoma and ocular hypertension ( OHT ). Methods Patients (>30 years old) with OHT , primary ope…
Correlation between cystatin-C, acute phase reactants, and retinopathy severity in diabetic patients Open
AIM: To evaluate correlation of cystatin-C(Cys-C)with severity of diabetic retinopathy(DR)and acute phase reactants, including erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR)and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP). METHODS: All diabetic patien…
An update on optical coherence tomography angiography in diabetic retinopathy Open
Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) is a novel non-invasive imaging modality for 3-dimensional visualization of retinal and optic nerve capillary networks. In this article, a comprehensive review of relevant original articles i…
Missing Globe: A Case of Severe Head Trauma, Eyelid Laceration, and Traumatic Enucleation Open
We report an unusual periocular injury in a 19-year-old motorcycle rider during an accident. The patient had lacerations on the right upper and lower eyelids and the globe was enucleated en bloc. Despite disorganization of the eyelids and …
Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography (OCTA) in Ophthalmology; Technology, Pros, Cons and Commercial Prototypes Open
The OCTA is a novel evolving imaging technology which utilizes motion contrast to visualize retinal and choroidal vessels.It showed promises to be used in predicting, grading, guiding and following treatment of important ocular vascular di…
Can Foveal Avascular Zone (FAZ) Assessment By OCT Angiography, Used For Grading Of Diabetic Retinopathy? Open
The most widely used grading system for Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is International Clinical Disease Severity Scale for DR.A qualitative scale that is based on clinical findings and grade DR as (mild, moderate, sever) non-proliferative and …
Ultra-wide-field imaging in diabetic retinopathy; an overview Open
Visualization of the peripheral retina using ultra-wide-field imaging improves diagnosis and classification of diabetic retinopathy. Additional studies are needed to better define the association of peripheral diabetic lesions with diabeti…
