RESUMO

Purpose To compare improvements in visual acuity (VA) and stereoacuity between active vision therapy (AVT) and conventional patching therapy in children with amblyopia. Methods This study included 65 children aged 5 to 16 years (mean age±SD, 11.00±3.29 years) with unilateral amblyopia. Among them, 31 children underwent active vision therapy (AVT group), and 34 children underwent conventional patching therapy (patching group). AVT group underwent three sequential phases of AVT: Monocular phase (pursuit, saccades, fixation, visuomotor, eye-hand coordination, and central peripheral activities), biocular phase (diplopia awareness, antisuppression, monocular fixation in a binocular field, accommodative activities, bilateral integration, and fine motor activities) and binocular phase (fusion and stereopsis). Patching group patched their fellow eyes as per guidelines by Pediatric Eye Disease Investigator Group. Best-corrected monocular VA and stereoacuity were measured at baseline and after three months of therapy in both groups. Results There were significant improvements in the mean acuities in amblyopic eye (AE) in both AVT (0.32±0.11 logMAR, p <0.001) and patching groups (0.27±0.19 logMAR, p ˂ 0.001). However, there was no significant difference in mean acuity gains in AE between AVT and patching groups (p = 0.059). Mean gains in stereoacuities (log seconds of arc) were statistically significant in both AVT (0.81±0.34, p < 0.001) and patching groups (0.32±0.34, p < 0.001). The stereoacuity gain in the AVT group was significantly higher compared to patching group (p < 0.001). Conclusion Active vision therapy had a better impact than conventional patching therapy in terms of improvement of stereoacuity but not in terms of VA when used for treating children with amblyopia.

RESUMO

Introduction A periodical self-monitoring of spherical refraction using smartphones may potentially allow a quicker intervention by eye care professionals to reduce myopia progression. Unfortunately, at low levels of myopia, the far point (FP) can be located far away from the eye which can make interactions with the device difficult. To partially remedy this issue, a novel method is proposed and tested wherein the longitudinal chromatic aberration (LCA) of blue light is leveraged to optically bring the FP closer to the eye. Methods Firstly, LCA was obtained by measuring spherical refraction subjectively using blue pixels in stimuli shown on organic light-emitting diode (OLED) screens and also grey stimuli with matching luminance. Secondly, the visual acuity (VA) measured with a smartphone located at 1.0 m and 1.5 m and displaying blue optotypes was compared with that obtained clinically standard measurements. Finally, the spherical over refraction obtained in blue light with a smartphone was compared with clinical over-refraction with black and white (B&W) optotypes placed at 6 m. Results Mean LCA of blue OLED smartphone screens was −0.67 ± 0.11 D. No significant differences (p > 0.05) were found between the VA measured with blue optotypes on a smartphone screen and an eye chart. Mean difference between spherical over-refraction measured subjectively by experienced subjects with smartphones and the one obtained clinically was 0.08 ± 0.34 D. Conclusions Smartphones using blue light can be used as a tool to detect changes in visual acuity and spherical refraction and facilitate monitoring of myopia progression. (AU)

RESUMO

Fundamento. Relacionar la ganancia de agudeza visual (AV) con el coste asistencial y de tratamiento con terapia anti-factor de cre-cimiento endotelial vascular (antiVEGF) en pacientes diagnostica-dos de degeneración macular asociada a la edad exudativa (DMAE exudativa).Pacientes y métodos. Estudio observacional, longitudinal, retros-pectivo, de pacientes ≥50 años diagnosticados de DMAE exudativa, con AV logMAR entre 0,6 y 0,06, en seguimiento y tratamiento en nuestro hospital de tercer nivel entre el 01/01/2014 y el 31/12/2018.Resultados. Se incluyeron 778 pacientes, 62,2% mujeres y media de edad 79,83±7,94 años, con 957 ojos con DMAE exudativa. La AV final global (0,65±0,45) aumentó un 3,2% respecto de la inicial. El 60,3% de los ojos recibieron antiVEGF con ranibizumab, el 10,2% con aflibercept y el 29,5% con ambos (mixto). El grupo mixto in-crementó significativamente la AV respecto de la inicial, sin dife-rencias entre grupos. Aunque el seguimiento/tratamiento fue más largo para el grupo mixto, este recibió menos inyecciones antiVE-GF y tomografías de coherencia óptica (OCT). El gasto total por año y ojo tratado fue de 1.972,7 €±824,5; los costes fueron mayores para visita, OCT y tratamiento en el grupo de aflibercept, y menores para angiografías con fluoresceína, tratamiento antiVEGF y costes totales en el grupo mixto. La ganancia decimal de AV tuvo un coste de 872 €±1.077,7 sin diferencias significativas entre grupos.Conclusiones. Los tratamientos antiVEGF con ranibizumab, afli-bercept y ambos mantuvieron la AV en pacientes con DMAE exu-dativa. En general, los costes asistenciales y de tratamiento fueron menores en el grupo que recibió ambos fármacos (AU)


Background. We examined the relationship between visual acuity changes (VA) and the cost of care and treatment with anti-vascular endothelial growth factors (antiVEGF) in patients diagnosed with age-related exudative macular degeneration(exudative AMD).Methods. Observational, longitudinal, retrospective study of pa-tients ≥50 years of age diagnosed with exudative AMD, with a log-MAR VA between 0.6 and 0.06. and 0.06. Follow-up and treatment were done in our tertiary hospital between January 1, 2014 and December 31, 2018.Results. The study included 778 patients; 62.2% female and mean age 79.83±7.94 years; 957 eyes had exudative AMD. Mean of final VA (0.65±0.45) increasing 3.2% compared to initial values. Ranibi-zumab was administered to 60.3% of the eyes, aflibercept to 10.2% and ranibizumab + aflibercept (mixed group) to 29.5%. Significant increase in VA was seen in the group with the mixed treatment, with no inter-group differences. Although follow-up/treatment was longer for the mixed group, they received fewer anti-VEGF injections and optical coherence tomography (OCT). The total expenditure per year and treated eye was €1,972.7±824.5; costs were higher for visit, OCT, and treatment in the aflibercept group, and lower for fluorescein angiography, antiVEGF treatment, and total costs in the mixed group. Decimal VA gain had a cost of €872±1,077.7 with no significant inter-group differences.Conclusion. AntiVEGF treatments (ranibizumab, aflibercept, or both) maintained VA in patients with exudative AMD. Overall, care and treatment costs were lower in the group that received both drugs (AU)

RESUMO

Purpose: To assess reading performance and report normative values for normal sighted Portuguese schoolchildren using the Portuguese version of the MNREAD reading acuity chart. Methods Children in the 2nd, 4th, 6th, 8th, and 10th grade in Portugal were recruited for this study. One hundred and sixty-seven children from 7 to 16 years of age participated. The Portuguese version of the printed MNREAD reading acuity chart was used to measure reading performance in these children. The non-linear mixed effects model with negative exponential decay function was used to compute maximum reading speed (MRS) and critical print size (CPS) automatically. Reading acuity (RA) and reading accessibility index (ACC) were computed manually. Results The mean MRS in words-per-minute (wpm) for the 2nd grade was 55 wpm (SD = 11.2 wpm), 104 wpm (SD = 27.9) for the 4th grade, 149 wpm (SD = 22.5) for 6th grade, 172 wpm (SD = 24.6) for 8th grade and 180 wpm for the 10th grade (SD = 16.8). There was a significant difference in MRS between school grades (p < 0.001). Participants’ reading speed increased by 14.5 wpm (95% CL: 13.1–15.9) with each year of increase in age. We found a significant difference between RA and school grades, but not for CPS. Conclusions This study provides normative reading performance values for the Portuguese version of the MNREAD chart. The MRS increased with increasing age and school grade, while RA shows initial improvement from early school years and gradually stabilizes in the more mature children. Normative values for the MNREAD test can now be used to determine reading difficulties or slow reading speed in, for example, children with impaired vision. (AU)

RESUMO

Purpose: The dynamic optotype (DYOP) visual acuity (VA) test is based on motion detection rather than element resolution and has been proposed for routine clinical assessment. This investigation examined the validity, inter- and intra-session repeatability and subjective preference for the DYOP versus a static letter chart and examined its utility in detecting astigmatic defocus. Methods: VA of 103 participants was measured three times with the letter and DYOP charts and repeated within two weeks in 75 participants who also rated their subjective experience. The VA of 29 participants was measured using DYOP, letter, Landolt C, and Tumbling E charts, with habitual correction and astigmatism induced with +1.00, +2.00 or +3.00 cylinders at 45, 60, 90 and 180°. Results: The charts differed by a mean of 0.02 logMAR, with 81% of the measurements within one line of acuity. Inter-session, intraclass correlation coefficients, within-subject SD and repeatability were 0.03 logMAR, 0.95, 0.11 and 0.30 versus 0.01 logMAR, 0.92, 0.15 and 0.42 for the DYOP and letter charts, respectively. The DYOP was significantly more frustrating (1.79 vs.1.36), with 59% preferring the letter chart. The DYOP was least affected by induced astigmatism. Conclusions: The DYOP and letter charts differed significantly in their mean values with wide limits of agreement. DYOP had better within-subject SD and narrower limits of agreement between sessions, though clinically insignificant, and performed significantly worse for the detection of uncorrected astigmatism. Thus, it is difficult to recommend this test for the clinical determination of refractive error. (AU)

RESUMO

Purpose Personal mobile devices such as smartphones are proving their usefulness in ever more applications in tele-eyecare. An inconvenience and potential source of error in these past approaches stemmed from the requirement for the subjects to situate their devices at a distance. The present study aims to clinically validate best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) measures carried out by a novel smartphone application “vision.app” (VisionApp Solutions S.L.) using comparative statistics against clinical measurements. Materials and methods BCVA was measured in both eyes of 40 subjects using vision.app which displayed a black Landolt-C optotype with crowding on a white background, and utilized a 4 forced-choice procedure for the subjects to find (by means of swiping in either of four directions) the smallest optotype size they could resolve. Results were compared to BCVA measurements taken using a standard Snellen chart placed at 20 feet (6 m). Results The t-test revealed no significant differences between the app- and clinically-measured VA (p = 0.478 (OD) and 0.608 (OS)), with a mean difference between clinical and app measurements of less than one line of the eye chart (-0.009 logMAR (OD) and -0.005 logMAR (OS)). A limit of agreement for a 95% confidence interval of ± 0.08 logMAR for OD and OS was found. Conclusions The results show the potential use of a smartphone to measure BCVA at a handheld distance. The newly validated study results can hold major future advancements in tele-eyecare and provide eye care professionals with a reliable and accessible method to measure BCVA. (AU)

RESUMO

Background Patti Pics (PP) and Lea Symbols (LS) are commonly used by eye care practitioners worldwide. Although the relationship between the two tests is fairly well understood, the availability of different chart designs (single optotypes, multiple optotypes, multiple optotypes with crowding box) merits futher understanding. The purpose of this study is to explore the agreement between the acuity measures obtained with Patti Pics and Lea Symbols in children and adults and compare their performance with the Sloan Letter (SL) chart in adults. Methods Monocular visual acuity was obtained from ninety-three 3 to 5-year-old children using Patti Pics and Lea Symbols. Acuities were also obtained from 113 adults using the same tests under identical conditions. Acuity results obtained with the pediatric tests were compared with the gold-standard Sloan Letter chart in adults. The Bland-Altman method was implemented to compare the level of agreement between tests. Results Patti Pics yielded worse visual acuity than the Lea Symbols by approximately half a logMAR line in both children (mean difference: -0.07 ± 0.07 logMAR, p <0.01) and adults (Mean difference: -0.05 ± 0.06 logMAR, p <0.01). The 95% limits of agreement between Lea Symbol acuity and Patti pics acuity in children was ± 0.14 logMAR. Mean difference between the Sloan Letter chart and Lea Symbols acuity was not statistically significant (p = 0.08) in adults but the difference was statistically significant between PP and SL (p<0.001). The 95% limits of agreement between LS and SL and between PP and SL was ± 0.19 logMAR and ± 0.22 logMAR, respectively. Conclusion Patti Pics consistently underestimated visual acuity as compared to Lea Symbols both in children and adults although the differences were not clinically significant. The LS and PP did not yield clinically significant differences in acuities when compared with Sloan letters in adults. (AU)

RESUMO

La cirugía de cristalino transparente (RLE) permite corregir las ametropías y la presbicia mediante el reemplazo del cristalino por una lente intraocular (LIO), ya sea monofocal, multifocal (MIOL) o de profundidad de foco extendida (EDOF). El desprendimiento de retina (DR) es uno de los eventos adversos más graves tras la RLE. El objetivo de este estudio fue revisar la evidencia y los resultados clínicos relacionados con el riesgo de DR después de la RLE. Se realizó una búsqueda utilizando PubMed y un procedimiento de bola de nieve para identificar estudios originales y series de casos. Según la bibliografía, los pacientes < 60 años con longitudes axiales > 23 mm tienen el mayor riesgo de DR. Solo nueve artículos reportaron la agudeza visual (AV) tras el DR en RLE, y solo 25% de los ojos mostraron una AV > 20/40. Teniendo en cuenta que la disminución de la AV tras el DR se puede dar con todos los tipos de LIO independientemente de su diseño óptico, la actitud más acertada al realizar una RLE sería una cuidadosa selección del paciente, evitando aquellos ojos con factores de riesgo para DR (AU)


Refractive lens exchange (RLE) allows to correct ametropias and presbyopia by replacing the crystalline lens with a monofocal, extended depth of focus or multifocal intraocular lens (IOL). Retinal detachment (RD) is one of the most serious adverse events after RLE. This study aimed to review the evidence related to the risk of RD after RLE and its clinical outcomes. A search using PubMed and a snowball search approach was conducted to identify articles and case reports. According to the literature, patients <60 years old with axial lengths >23 mm have the higher postoperative risk of RD. Only nine articles reported visual acuity (VA) after RD in RLE, and only 25% of eyes had a VA>20/40. Considering that the decrease in VA might be uniform for all types of IOLs after RD, surgeons should focus on preventing the RD by means of selecting the appropriate patient, rather than choosing on a particular IOL optical design (AU)

RESUMO

Objetivo Determinar la correlación entre la sensibilidad al contraste y las características morfológicas obtenidas por tomografía de coherencia óptica en pacientes con degeneración macular relacionada con la edad avanzada tratados con dosis de carga de inhibidores del factor de crecimiento endotelial vascular (anti-VEGF). Diseño Se trata de un estudio ambispectivo (prospectivo+retrospectivo) observacional y analítico. Participantes Todos los pacientes de 55 años o más con degeneración macular relacionada con la edad que acudieron al departamento de Retina del servicio de Oftalmología y cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión entre marzo-mayo de 2022. Métodos Se recolectaron los datos por medio de la revisión de expedientes. Se analizaron los estudios de tomografía de coherencia óptica previa a la aplicación de inyecciones intravítreas de los pacientes que se encontraban en el mes posterior a la última dosis. Se incluyeron un total de 33 sujetos y un total de 30 continuaron seguimiento. Se realizaron pruebas de normalidad (Shapiro y Bartlett) entre los grupos de estudio, dando como resultado grupos no normales no homocedásticos. Los sujetos fueron sometidos a una nueva evaluación oftalmológica y nueva toma de mediciones retinianas. Resultados Se realizó un análisis de regresión lineal comparando los valores logarítmicos de la agudeza visual y la sensibilidad al contraste, obteniendo una relación significativa entre ambos valores posterior a la aplicación del tratamiento (p<0,0001). Asimismo, se demostró una correlación entre la disminución de los valores de la sensibilidad al contraste y todas las características evaluadas en el tomografía de coherencia óptica. Conclusiones Las estrategias de antiangiogénesis pueden conducir a mejores resultados en la función visual global, impactando positivamente en la sensibilidad al contraste (AU)


Objective To determine the correlation between contrast sensitivity and morphological characteristics obtained by optical coherence tomography in patients with age-related macular degeneration treated with a loading dose of vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitors (anti-VEGF). Design This is an ambispective (prospective+retrospective) observational, cross-sectional, and analytical study. Participants All patients over 55 years of age with age-related macular degeneration who attended the Retina service of the Ophthalmology department and met the inclusion criteria between March-May 2022. Methods Data collection was carried out by reviewing the records of patients.Optical coherence tomography studies prior to the application of intravitreal injections of patients who were currently in the first month after the last dose of anti-VEGF were analyzed. A total of 33 subjects were included, of which 30 continued follow-ups. Normality tests (Shapiro and Bartlett) were performed where a nonparametric data distribution was demonstrated. The subjects underwent a new ophthalmological evaluation and new retinal measurements of the affected eye. Results A linear regression analysis was performed comparing the logarithmic values of both visual acuity and contrast sensitivity, obtaining a significant relationship between both values after the application of treatment (P<.0001). Likewise, correlation was demonstrated between the decrease in contrast sensitivity values and all the characteristics evaluated in the patients’ optical coherence tomography. Conclusions Antiangiogenesis strategies can lead to better results in global visual function, positively impacting contrast sensitivity (AU)

RESUMO

Mujer de 57 años sin premorbilidades que acude por pérdida de visión súbita e indolora en el ojo derecho (OD). La agudeza visual mejor corregida fue de contar dedos a 10cm. En el OD se observó un defecto pupilar aferente relativo. El examen de fondo de ojo en el OD fue sugestivo de oclusión central de la arteria retiniana. La evaluación sistémica fue normal. Lo más interesante en este caso es que un edema hemorrágico en la región glabelar derecha fue la base de la sospecha diagnóstica. La paciente reconoció la pérdida de visión a las 24horas de la inyección de ácido hialurónico como tratamiento de rejuvenecimiento facial (AU)


A 57-year-old woman with no premorbidities presented with symptoms of sudden painless vision loss in the right eye (RE). Best-corrected visual acuity in the RE was counting fingers to 10cm. A relative afferent pupillary defect was observed in the RE. Ocular fundus examination of RE was suggestive of central retinal artery occlusion. Systemic evaluation was normal. The most interesting fact in this case is that a hemorrhagic edema in the right glabellar region was the basis for the diagnostic suspicion. The patient recognized the loss of vision 24hours after hyaluronic acid injection as a facial rejuvenation treatment (AU)

RESUMO

Purpose: We aimed to determine if visual acuity (VA) could differentiate the quality of vision with two ophthalmic lenses with unwanted astigmatism. Methods: Twenty presbyopic subjects (48 to 62 years old; VA better than 0.0 logMAR) graded the magnitude of their preference between two progressive addition lenses (plano addition 2.00D) and their visual acuities were measured with both lenses at various eccentricities from -12 to +12 mm from the near vision point every 3 mm in controlled conditions. Results: The Lens with the least peripheral astigmatism was preferred by 75% of the subjects. VA measured at the near vision point was statistically worse (p<0.01) with this lens whereas the contrary was observed in the periphery (± 12 and -9 mm of eccentricity). The Friedman test shows that the eccentricity (p<0.001) has a significant effect on visual acuity. However, the lens did not show any significant effect (p=0.76). The choice of the favorite lens was predicted for only 35% when considering central VA (up to 6mm) and 80% of the subjects when considering peripheral VA (9 to 12mm). However, the magnitude of the difference could be predicted by peripheral VA in only 60% of the subjects. Conclusion: High contrast Visual acuity was clearly able to differentiate the 2 lens designs tested in our experiment. However, even under the controlled conditions of this study, it was not possible to predict the quality of vision, as measured by a subjective appreciation, through progressive addition lenses at various eccentricities from the near vision with an addition of 2.0D.(AU)

RESUMO

Objetivo Analizar la prevalencia de signos tomográficos no exudativos (signo de cebolla, seudoedema, tubulación de la retina externa, seudoquistes, hendiduras subretinianas y atrofia macular) en pacientes con degeneración macular asociada a la edad neovascular. Material y métodos Un total de 174 ojos de pacientes con degeneración macular asociada a la edad neovascular que no habían recibido tratamiento previo fueron incluidos en el estudio. Se valoró la agudeza visual, la actividad de la neovascularización y la aparición o no de los distintos signos objeto de estudio en los tiempos 0 (visita inicial), 4 meses, un año, año y medio y a los 2 y 3 años de seguimiento. Se evaluaron también: la edad, el sexo, el ojo afecto y el tipo de neovascularización (1, 2, 3, polipoidea o mixta). Los análisis se han realizado mediante el software estadístico R (versión 3.3.2) y el paquete glmmADMB (versión 0.8.3.3). Resultados La presencia de seudoquistes y tubulación de la retina externa va en aumento a lo largo del seguimiento. El signo de cebolla comienza con una frecuencia ascendente hasta los 12 meses, posteriormente desciende a los 18 meses y vuelve a incrementarse a los 24 meses. En cuanto al seudoedema, mantiene un incremento hasta los 18 meses para finalmente descender. Las hendiduras subretinianas son el signo más raro, presentándose en el 1,1% en la primera visita. Finalmente, la atrofia macular, presente en el 12,6% de los ojos inicialmente, se encuentra en el 25% a los 2 años. Conclusión Los seudoquistes, la tubulación de la retina externa y la atrofia macular fueron los signos más prevalentes, mientras que las hendiduras subretinianas fueron los más infrecuentes (AU)


Objective To analyze the prevalence of non-exudative tomographic signs (onion sign, pseudoswelling, external retinal tubulation, pseudocysts, subretinal clefts and macular atrophy) in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration. Material and methods A total of 174 eyes of patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration who had not received previous treatment were included in the study. Visual acuity, neovascularization activity, and the appearance or not of the different signs under study were assessed at times 0 (initial visit), 4 months, one year, year and a half, and at 2 and 3 years of follow-up. The following were also evaluated: age, sex, affected eye and type of neovascularization (1, 2, 3, polypoid or mixed). The analysis were performed using the statistical software R (version 3.3.2) and the glmmADMB package (version 0.8.3.3). Results The presence of pseudocysts and external retinal tubulation increases throughout the follow-up. The onion sign begins with an ascending frequency up to 12 months, then decreases at 18 months and increases again at 24 months. Regarding pseudowelling, it maintains an increase until 18 months to finally decrease. Subretinal clefts is the rarest sign, presenting in 1.1% on the first visit. Finally, macular atrophy, present in 12.6% of the eyes initially, is found in 25% after 2 years. Conclusion Pseudocysts, external retinal tubulation and macular atrophy were the most prevalent signs, while subretinal clefts were the most infrequent (AU)

RESUMO

El desprendimiento de la membrana de Descemet es una complicación potencial tras la queratoplastia endotelial de la membrana de Descemet (DMEK, acrónimo en inglés de Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty). En este artículo presentamos un caso clínico de una cirugía DMEK en un caso complicado, que presentó un desprendimiento casi completo del injerto y posteriormente una opacificación de este y la formación de una seudocámara anterior. En noviembre del 2020, se realizó una cirugía DMEK a un paciente de 64 años debido a una descompensación endotelial. Tres meses después del DMEK, se observó el injerto desprendido y parcialmente adherido, fibrótico en la cámara anterior y formando una seudocámara anterior. Sin embargo, la córnea se mantuvo totalmente transparente con un recuento endotelial de aproximadamente 1.204 células/mm2 y la agudeza visual con corrección fue 20/25. Tres meses más tarde, se objetivó una opacificación significativa del injerto despegado y la agudeza visual disminuyó a 20/63. Procedimos a la extracción del injerto sin realizar una segunda DMEK. Diez meses más tarde, la córnea permaneció transparente con un recuento endotelial de 510 células/mm2 y la agudeza visual con corrección fue 20/25 (AU)


Descemet Membrane detachment is a potential complication after Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty (DMEK). Here, we present a unique case of a DMEK surgery in a complicated eye that suffered a nearly complete DMEK graft detachment and later a graft opacification with a pseudo-anterior chamber. In Mid-November 2020, a planned DMEK was performed in a 64-year-old male patient due to corneal decompensation. Four months after DMEK, a fibrotic DMEK graft was seen across the anterior chamber with a pseudo-anterior chamber; however, the recipient cornea showed complete clearance with an endothelial cell count of about 1204 cells/mm2 and a best-corrected visual acuity of 20/25. Three months later, we observed a significant opacification of the detached graft, and the best-corrected distance visual acuity decreased to 20/63. We proceeded with the graft removal without performing a second DMEK. Ten months after graft removal, the cornea remained clear with an endothelial cell count of about 510 cells/mm2, and the best-corrected visual acuity was 20/25 (AU)

RESUMO

Background: To evaluate the 12-month refractive and visual outcomes of Small Incision Guided Human-cornea Treatment (SmartSight®, SCHWIND eye-tech-solutions, Kleinostheim, Germany) in the treatment of myopia corrections with low to moderate astigmatism with the use of a new femtosecond laser system.Methods221 eyes of 114 patients consecutively treated with SmartSight lenticule extraction were assessed. The mean age of the patients was 28±6 years at the time of treatment with a mean spherical equivalent refraction of -6.26±2.17D and mean astigmatism of 0.92±0.68D. Monocular corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) were assessed pre- and post-operatively. Refractive changes have been determined in terms of changes in refraction, as well as changes in keratometric readings. The changes in central epithelial thickness have been determined.ResultsAt twelve months post-operatively, mean UDVA was 20/21±2. Spherical equivalent showed a residual refraction of +0.48±0.31D with refractive astigmatism of 0.13±0.18D postoperatively. There was a slight decrease of -0.1 Snellen lines at 12-months follow-up. The same correction was determined using changes in refraction, as well as changes in keratometric readings. The central epithelial thickness increased by +3±2µm. Spherical equivalent correction within ±0.50D was achieved in 199 eyes (90%), and cylindrical correction in 221 (100%). Preoperative corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) was 20/20 or better in 213 eyes (96%), and postoperative uncorrected (UDVA) was 20/20 or better in 205 eyes (93%). No eye had lost two or more Snellen lines of CDVA.ConclusionsMyopic astigmatism correction with SmartSight provided good results for efficacy, safety, predictability, and visual outcomes at the twelve months of follow up. The central epithelial thickness barely increased by 3±2µm. (AU)

RESUMO

Objetivo: Evaluar las secuelas clínicas y funcionales de pacientes con diagnóstico de coriorretinopatía serosa central (CSC) resuelta, mediante OCT macular, prueba de sensibilidad al contraste, campo visual 10-2 y prueba de colores Farnsworth D-15. Métodos: Se incluyeron y evaluaron 27 ojos de 26 individuos con CSC resuelta por OCT macular; a los pacientes se les realizó prueba de sensibilidad al contraste con el equipo Optec 6500, campo visual 10-2 con Octopus 900 Haag- Streit y prueba de color Farnsworth D-15. Resultados: Se observaron secuelas en 20 ojos (74,1%) por OCT macular y en 21 (77,8%) en la sensibilidad al contraste, predominantemente defecto tipo2. También 27 (100%) tenían un campo visual 10-2 alterado correspondiente a sensibilidad foveal reducida, y 11 ojos (40,7%) correspondían a escotomas centrales y paracentrales. La prueba de color mostró alteración en 11 (40,7%) del total de ojos evaluados, encontrando tritanomalía en 9 de ellos (81,8%). No se observaron diferencias significativas en los estudios entre el grupo de observación vs el grupo de tratamiento. Conclusiones: La CSC puede dejar secuelas en la calidad visual de los pacientes a pesar de su tratamiento en fase aguda. La agudeza visual antes y después del tratamiento en el grupo de intervención no tuvo diferencia significativa. (AU)


Objective: To evaluate the clinical and functional sequelae of patients with a diagnosis of resolved central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC), through macular OCT, contrast sensitivity test, visual field 10-2 and Farnsworth D-15 color test. Methods: 27 eyes of 26 individuals with CSC resolved by macular OCT were included and evaluated. The patients underwent a contrast sensitivity test with the Optec 6500 equipment, a 10-2 visual field with an Octopus 900 Haag-Streit, and a Farnsworth D-15 color test. Results; Sequelae were observed in 20 eyes (74.1%) by macular OCT and in 21 (77.8%) in contrast sensitivity, predominantly type2 defect. Also 27 (100%) had a visual field 10-2 altered corresponding to reduced foveal sensitivity, 11 eyes (40.7%) corresponded to central and paracentral scotomas. The color test showed alteration in 11 (40.7%) of the total eyes evaluated, finding tritanomaly in 9 of them (81.8%). No significant differences were observed in the studies between observation group vs the treatment group. Conclusions: CSC can leave sequelae in the visual quality of patients despite treatment in the acute phase. Visual acuity before and after treatment in the intervention group had no significant difference. (AU)
