RESUMEN

PURPOSE: The International Committee for the Classification of Corneal Dystrophies (IC3D) was created in 2005 to develop a new classification system integrating current information on phenotype, histopathology, and genetic analysis. This update is the third edition of the IC3D nomenclature. METHODS: Peer-reviewed publications from 2014 to 2023 were evaluated. The new information was used to update the anatomic classification and each of the 22 standardized templates including the level of evidence for being a corneal dystrophy [from category 1 (most evidence) to category 4 (least evidence)]. RESULTS: Epithelial recurrent erosion dystrophies now include epithelial recurrent erosion dystrophy, category 1 ( COL17A1 mutations, chromosome 10). Signs and symptoms are similar to Franceschetti corneal dystrophy, dystrophia Smolandiensis, and dystrophia Helsinglandica, category 4. Lisch epithelial corneal dystrophy, previously reported as X-linked, has been discovered to be autosomal dominant ( MCOLN1 mutations, chromosome 19). Classic lattice corneal dystrophy (LCD) results from TGFBI R124C mutation. The LCD variant group has over 80 dystrophies with non-R124C TGFBI mutations, amyloid deposition, and often similar phenotypes to classic LCD. We propose a new nomenclature for specific LCD pathogenic variants by appending the mutation using 1-letter amino acid abbreviations to LCD. Pre-Descemet corneal dystrophies include category 1, autosomal dominant, punctiform and polychromatic pre-Descemet corneal dystrophy (PPPCD) ( PRDX3 mutations, chromosome 10). Typically asymptomatic, it can be distinguished phenotypically from pre-Descemet corneal dystrophy, category 4. We include a corneal dystrophy management table. CONCLUSIONS: The IC3D third edition provides a current summary of corneal dystrophy information. The article is available online at https://corneasociety.org/publications/ic3d .

RESUMEN

Granular corneal dystrophy type 2 (GCD2) is an autosomal dominant corneal stromal dystrophy that is caused by p.Arg124His mutation of transforming growth factor ß induced (TGFBI) gene. It is characterized by well demarcated granular shaped opacities in central anterior stroma and as the disease progresses, extrusion of the deposits results in ocular pain due to corneal epithelial erosion. Also, diffuse corneal haze which appears late, causes decrease in visual acuity. The prevalence of GCD2 is high in East Asia including Korea. Homozygous patients show a severe phenotype from an early age, and the heterozygote phenotype varies among patients, depending on several types of compound heterozygous TGFBI mutations. In the initial stage, conservative treatments such as artificial tears, antibiotic eye drops, and bandage contact lenses are used to treat corneal erosion. Different surgical methods are used depending on the depth and extent of the stromal deposits. Phototherapeutic keratectomy removes anterior opacities and is advantageous in terms of its applicability and repeatability. For deeper lesions, deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty can be used as the endothelial layer is not always affected. Recurrence following these treatments are reported within a wide range of rates in different studies due to varying definition of recurrence and follow-up period. In patients who have undergone corneal laser vision-correction surgeries such as photorefractive keratectomy, LASEK, or LASIK including SMILE surgery, corneal opacity exacerbates rapidly with severe deterioration of visual acuity. Further investigations on new treatments of GCD2 are necessary.

RESUMEN

The progressive degeneration of granular corneal dystrophy type 2 (GCD2) corneal fibroblasts is associated with altered mitochondrial function, but the underlying mechanisms are incompletely understood. We investigated whether an imbalance of mitochondrial dynamics contributes to mitochondrial dysfunction of GCD2 corneal fibroblasts. Transmission electron microscopy revealed several small, structurally abnormal mitochondria with altered cristae morphology in GCD2 corneal fibroblasts. Confocal microscopy showed enhanced mitochondrial fission and fragmented mitochondrial tubular networks. Western blotting revealed higher levels of MFN1, MFN2, and pDRP1 and decreased levels of OPA1 and FIS1 in GCD2. OPA1 reduction by short hairpin RNA (shRNA) resulted in fragmented mitochondrial tubular networks and increased susceptibility to mitochondrial stress-induced apoptosis. A decrease in the mitochondrial biogenesis-related transcription factors NRF1 and PGC1α was observed, while there was an increase in the mitochondrial membrane proteins TOM20 and TIM23. Additionally, reduced levels of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) were exhibited in GCD2 corneal fibroblasts. These observations suggest that altered mitochondrial fission/fusion and biogenesis are the critical molecular mechanisms that cause mitochondrial dysfunction contributing to the degeneration of GCD2 corneal fibroblasts.

RESUMEN

Granular corneal dystrophy type 2 (GCD2) is an autosomal dominant disease affecting vision. Phototherapeutic keratectomy (PTK) is advantageous in removing vision-threatening corneal opacities and postponing keratoplasty; however, it potentially disturbs accurate intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation in cataract surgery. The myopic/hyperopic Haigis-L method with or without the central island has been reported; nevertheless, an optimal method has not yet been established. To compare the predictive accuracy of post-PTK IOL power calculations in GCD2, the retrospective data of 30 eyes from July 2017 to December 2020 were analyzed. All GCD2-affected eyes underwent post-PTK standard cataract surgery using the WaveLight EX500 platform (Alcon Laboratories, Inc., Fort Worth, TX, USA) under a single surgeon. The mean prediction error (MPE) and absolute error (MAE) with the myopic/hyperopic Haigis-L, Barrett Universal II, Barrett True-K, Haigis, and SRK/T by standard keratometry (K) and total keratometry (TK), where possible, were analyzed. Barrett Universal II and SRK/T showed significantly superior MPE, and MAE compared with the myopic/hyperopic Haigis-L method. TK was not significantly superior to K in the same formula. In conclusion, this study suggests that these biometries and formulas, especially Barrett Universal II and SRK/T, are potentially useful in IOL power calculation in GCD2 after PTK.

RESUMEN

Modified monovision-or "mini-monovision"-is an alternative method to multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) for treating presbyopia. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of patients bilaterally implanted with the new enhanced monofocal Tecnis Eyhance (ICB00) IOLs with the mini-monovision technique to improve near vision. In this retrospective case series, the medical records of 50 patients (100 eyes) who underwent bilateral cataract surgery were reviewed. Patients were divided into the Emmetropia and Mini-monovision groups based on the postoperative spherical equivalent and residual myopia. The binocular visual acuity for far (4 m), intermediate (66 cm), and near (40 cm) distances, binocular defocus curves, contrast sensitivity, visual symptoms, spectacle independence, and patient satisfaction rates were evaluated at 3 months postoperatively. The binocular uncorrected distance and intermediate visual acuities, contrast sensitivity, incidence of photic phenomena, and patient satisfaction were not significantly different between the two groups (p > 0.05). However, the binocular uncorrected near visual acuities and spectacle independence rates were significantly better in the Mini-monovision group (p < 0.001). Conclusively, the pseudophakic mini-monovision technique using enhanced monofocal IOLs may be a promising option for presbyopia correction in patients unsuitable for multifocal IOLs.

RESUMEN

Purpose: To assess the effects of femtosecond laser arcuate keratotomy with femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery in the management of corneal astigmatism, compared with conventional phacoemulsification cataract surgery. Design: Retrospective comparative interventional case series. Methods: A total of 2,498 eyes of consecutive patients who presented with 3.00 diopters (D) or under of astigmatism were included. The patients were treated with conventional phacoemulsification cataract surgery (conventional group) and femtosecond laser arcuate keratotomy with femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (femtosecond group). Results: Surgically induced astigmatism (SIA) was higher in the femtosecond group than the conventional group (0.215, p < 0.001). Difference vector (DV) was lower in the femtosecond group (-0.136, p < 0.001). The cut-off value of the overcorrection in the femtosecond group was 0.752 D of target induced astigmatism (TIA). For patients with TIA 0.75 D or under, DV and the value of index of success (TIA into DV) were significantly higher in the femtosecond group (p = 0.022 and < 0.001). The overcorrection ratios were 48.8% in the conventional and 58.9% in the femtosecond group. (p < 0.001). For patients with TIA over 0.75 D, SIA and correction index (TIA into SIA) was higher in femtosecond group (0.310 and 0.250, p < 0.001 and < 0.001, respectively). Absolute angle of error was 20.612 ± 18.497 in the femtosecond group and higher than the conventional group (2.778, p = 0.010). Conclusion: Femtosecond laser arcuate keratotomy in cataract surgery was effective in SIA between 0.75 to 3.00 D of corneal astigmatism. However, the overcorrection in the lower astigmatism and angle of error in the higher astigmatism were due to the postoperative corneal astigmatism not decreasing as much as SIA. Overcoming these challenges will lead to better management of corneal astigmatism.

RESUMEN

This study was to analyze the clinical outcomes of immediate reapplication of small-incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) without adjusting the surgical parameters after suction loss and to compare the outcomes with contralateral eyes that underwent uneventful SMILE. A total of 74 patients who underwent uneventful SMILE in one eye (Uneventful group) and immediate reapplication of SMILE without adjusting the surgical parameters after suction loss in the contralateral eye (Suction loss group) were included. Suction loss occurred during the posterior lenticule surface cut in 39 eyes (53%) and the cap cut in 35 eyes (47%). Surgical outcomes, including visual acuity, manifest refraction, keratometry, and corneal wavefront aberrations, were evaluated at 6 months postoperatively. The mean uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), and spherical equivalent were - 0.02 ± 0.07, - 0.04 ± 0.04, and - 0.10 ± 0.46 diopters (D), respectively, in the Suction loss group and - 0.02 ± 0.07, - 0.04 ± 0.05, and - 0.19 ± 0.53 D, respectively (P = 0.965, 0.519, and 0.265, respectively), in the Uneventful group. Changes between the preoperative and 6-month postoperative total corneal aberrations, spherical aberrations, and horizontal and vertical coma did not significantly differ between the Suction loss and Uneventful groups. Immediate reapplication of SMILE without adjusting the surgical parameters after suction loss resulted in good surgical outcomes that were comparable with those of uneventful SMILE.

RESUMEN

Purpose: To evaluate the value of artificial intelligence (AI) for recommendation of pupil dilation test using medical interview and basic ophthalmologic examinations. Design: Retrospective, cross-sectional study. Subjects: Medical records of 56,811 patients who visited our outpatient clinic for the first time between 2017 and 2020 were included in the training dataset. Patients who visited the clinic in 2021 were included in the test dataset. Among these, 3,885 asymptomatic patients, including eye check-up patients, were initially included in test dataset I. Subsequently, 14,199 symptomatic patients who visited the clinic in 2021 were included in test dataset II. Methods: All patients underwent a medical interview and basic ophthalmologic examinations such as uncorrected distance visual acuity, corrected distance visual acuity, non-contact tonometry, auto-keratometry, slit-lamp examination, dilated pupil test, and fundus examination. A clinically significant lesion in the lens, vitreous, and fundus was defined by subspecialists, and the need for a pupil dilation test was determined when the participants had one or more clinically significant lesions in any eye. Input variables of AI consisted of a medical interview and basic ophthalmologic examinations, and the AI was evaluated with predictive performance for the need of a pupil dilation test. Main outcome measures: Accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and positive predictive value. Results: Clinically significant lesions were present in 26.5 and 59.1% of patients in test datasets I and II, respectively. In test dataset I, the model performances were as follows: accuracy, 0.908 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.880-0.936); sensitivity, 0.757 (95% CI: 0.713-0.801); specificity, 0.962 (95% CI: 0.947-0.977); positive predictive value, 0.878 (95% CI: 0.834-0.922); and F1 score, 0.813. In test dataset II, the model had an accuracy of 0.949 (95% CI: 0.934-0.964), a sensitivity of 0.942 (95% CI: 0.928-956), a specificity of 0.960 (95% CI: 0.927-0.993), a positive predictive value of 0.971 (95% CI: 0.957-0.985), and a F1 score of 0.956. Conclusion: The AI model performing a medical interview and basic ophthalmologic examinations to determine the need for a pupil dilation test had good sensitivity and specificity for symptomatic patients, although there was a limitation in identifying asymptomatic patients.

RESUMEN

Purpose: To investigate an artificial intelligence (AI) model performance using multi-source anterior segment optical coherence tomographic (OCT) images in estimating the preoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in patients with senile cataract. Design: Retrospective, cross-instrument validation study. Subjects: A total of 2,332 anterior segment images obtained using swept-source OCT, optical biometry for intraocular lens calculation, and a femtosecond laser platform in patients with senile cataract and postoperative BCVA ≥ 0.0 logMAR were included in the training/validation dataset. A total of 1,002 images obtained using optical biometry and another femtosecond laser platform in patients who underwent cataract surgery in 2021 were used for the test dataset. Methods: AI modeling was based on an ensemble model of Inception-v4 and ResNet. The BCVA training/validation dataset was used for model training. The model performance was evaluated using the test dataset. Analysis of absolute error (AE) was performed by comparing the difference between true preoperative BCVA and estimated preoperative BCVA, as ≥0.1 logMAR (AE≥0.1) or <0.1 logMAR (AE <0.1). AE≥0.1 was classified into underestimation and overestimation groups based on the logMAR scale. Outcome Measurements: Mean absolute error (MAE), root mean square error (RMSE), mean percentage error (MPE), and correlation coefficient between true preoperative BCVA and estimated preoperative BCVA. Results: The test dataset MAE, RMSE, and MPE were 0.050 ± 0.130 logMAR, 0.140 ± 0.134 logMAR, and 1.3 ± 13.9%, respectively. The correlation coefficient was 0.969 (p < 0.001). The percentage of cases with AE≥0.1 was 8.4%. The incidence of postoperative BCVA > 0.1 was 21.4% in the AE≥0.1 group, of which 88.9% were in the underestimation group. The incidence of vision-impairing disease in the underestimation group was 95.7%. Preoperative corneal astigmatism and lens thickness were higher, and nucleus cataract was more severe (p < 0.001, 0.007, and 0.024, respectively) in AE≥0.1 than that in AE <0.1. The longer the axial length and the more severe the cortical/posterior subcapsular opacity, the better the estimated BCVA than the true BCVA. Conclusions: The AI model achieved high-level visual acuity estimation in patients with senile cataract. This quantification method encompassed both visual acuity and cataract severity of OCT image, which are the main indications for cataract surgery, showing the potential to objectively evaluate cataract severity.

RESUMEN

Background: Mutations of the transforming growth factor-ß-induced (TGFBI) gene produce various types of corneal dystrophy. Here, we report a novel de novo L509P mutation not located in a known hot spot of the transforming growth factor-ß-induced (TGFBI) gene and its clinical phenotype, which resembles that of lattice corneal dystrophy type IIIA (LCD IIIA). Case presentation: A 36-year-old man (proband) visited our clinic due to decreased visual acuity with intermittent ocular irritation in conjunction with painful recurrent erosions in both eyes for 10 years. Molecular genetic analyses revealed a TGFBI L509P mutation (c.1526T>C) in the proband and one of his sons. Interestingly, neither TGFBI mutations nor corneal abnormalities were detected in either of the proband's biological parents, indicating the occurrence of a de novo L509P mutation. Clinical examinations, including slit-lamp retro-illumination and Fourier-domain anterior segment optical coherence tomography (FD-OCT), revealed gray deposits in the anterior stroma and deeper refractile lines extending from limbus to limbus in both corneas of the proband, consistent with a diagnosis of LCD IIIA. Superficial diffuse haze and surface irregularity were observed in conjunction with corneal erosions and visual impairment, necessitating phototherapeutic keratectomy (PTK). A 60 µm PTK of the Bowman layer and anterior stroma of the proband's left eye was performed following the removal of the epithelium in order to remove superficial corneal opacities. His BCVA improved from 20/400 to 20/50 at postoperative week 8 and was maintained for 45 months. Pinhole-corrected VA was 20/20 at the last visit, and corneal opacities had not recurred. Conclusions: An inheritable de novo mutation of L509P in the TGFBI gene can produce severe LCD IIIA, which can be successfully treated with OCT-guided PRK.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To compare anterior biometry measurements using placido-scanning-slit topography, rotating Scheimpflug tomography, and swept-source optical coherence tomography. METHODS: A retrospective review consisted of 80 eyes of 49 participants who underwent anterior chamber depth (ACD), central corneal thickness (CCT), and keratometry examination on the same day. We used placido-scanning-slit topography (ORBscan II), rotating Scheimpflug tomography (Pentacam HR), and swept-source optical coherence tomography (CASIA SS1000). The intraclass correlation coefficients and Bland-Altman plots were used to evaluate the agreement and differences between measurements. RESULTS: The mean ACD values were 2.88 ± 0.43, 2.82 ± 0.50, and 2.68 ± 0.44 mm; and the mean CCT values were 536.96 ± 31.19, 543.79 ± 31.04, and 561.41 ± 32.60 µm; and the mean keratometry (Km) were 43.81 ± 1.69, 43.81 ± 1.77, and 44.65 ± 1.95 diopters; as measured by CASIA SS-1000, Pentacam HR, and ORBscan II, respectively. Among the three devices, ACD was deepest to shallowest in the order of CASIA SS-1000, Pentacam HR, and ORBscan II (p < 0.05). The CCT was thickest to thinnest in the order of ORBscan II, Pentacam HR, and CASIA SS-1000 (p < 0.05). No significant differences in Km values were examined between CASIA SS-1000 and Pentacam HR, whereas ORBscan II overestimated Km with a statistically significant difference compared to the other two devices. CONCLUSIONS: High level of agreement was found between CASIA SS-1000 and Pentacam HR for anterior parameters, including ACD, CCT, and Km, suggesting interchangeability. However, ORBscan II measurements differed considerably with the measurements obtained from the other two devices; therefore, it should not be used interchangeably. However, further studies with repeatability test should be considered in order to elucidate the reliability of each device.

RESUMEN

Cataract is the leading cause of blindness worldwide, and advanced cataract techniques such as femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) have been commercially available. Corneal refractive surgery (CRS) is one of the most popular surgeries for the correction of refractive errors. CRS changes the cornea not only anatomically but also pathophysiologically. However, there has been no clinical research analyzing the refractive and safety outcomes of FLACS after CRS. The aim of this retrospective chart review and comparative study is to evaluate the effect and safety of FLACS after CRS comparing with conventional PCS. Participants with a previous CRS history who underwent FLACS or conventional PCS were included in this study. The visual outcomes and the refractive outcomes including refractive, corneal, and ocular residual astigmatism were compared. The safety outcomes were then studied intraoperatively and postoperatively. A total of 102 patients with age-related cataract were enrolled. At 3 months postoperatively, UCVA, BCVA, and predictive error were not significantly different between the FLACS and conventional PCS groups. Reduction of refractive astigmatism was higher in FLACS. Postoperative ORA was significant lower in FLACS. Reduction of ORA was higher in FLACS. The intraoperative and postoperative complications were also not significantly different between the two groups. FLACS could effectively change refractive astigmatism and ORA; without more complications than conventional PCS. FLACS' competitive edge in postoperative ORA may provide better visual quality than conventional PCS in patients with a previous history of CRS.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: We investigated whether there is a difference in the treatment effect and pain during the treatment of meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) with intense pulsed-light (IPL) between new light guide and conventional light guide. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed medical records of 85 patients (170 eyes) who underwent IPL treatment of the upper and lower eyelids 3 times, at 3-week intervals, for MGD. Patients treated with the 6-mm or 8 × 15-mm cylindrical light guide were designated as group A or group B, respectively. The ocular surface disease index (OSDI), dry eye (DE), and MGD parameters were obtained before the first and after the third IPL treatments. Visual analog scale (VAS) scores were obtained at every IPL treatment. OSDI, DE, and MGD parameters and VAS scores were compared between the groups. RESULTS: VAS scores at the first, second, and third IPL treatments were lower in group A than in group B. OSDI, DE, and MGD parameters were improved after 3 IPL treatments in both groups. There were no significant differences in OSDI, DE symptoms, and MGD parameters between before the first IPL treatment and after the third IPL treatment between the groups. CONCLUSIONS: Using the new 6-mm cylindrical light guide for IPL treatment in patients with MGD induced less pain during treatment and had similar treatment effects to the conventional 8 × 15-mm light guide. The new 6-mm cylindrical light guide can be useful when treating patients with dark or hyperpigmented skin and for pediatric patients with low compliance.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To report a unique case of Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) with severe ocular complications induced by pembrolizumab, an immune checkpoint inhibitor. CASE PRESENTATION: A 64-year-old man with urothelial cancer presented with bilateral corneal epithelial defect and conjunctival pseudo-membrane formation with erythematous patches on the four extremities, abdomen, and back. He had urothelial cancer with multifocal lesions in the renal pelvis and left ureter, and para-aortic metastatic lymph nodes. Accordingly, pembrolizumab treatment was planned. Generalized skin eruption occurred 4 days after the first cycle of pembrolizumab treatment, and ocular symptoms occurred 2 weeks after the first cycle. The patient's symptoms improved after cessation of pembrolizumab treatment and administration of steroids systemically. CONCLUSIONS: Immune checkpoint inhibitors, including pembrolizumab, have been developed recently and are widely used in the treatment of various cancers. However, it should be noted that the drugs may cause adverse events such as SJS with severe ocular complications.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To evaluate the accuracy of the Kane formula for intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation in comparison with existing formulas by incorporating optional variables into calculation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective review consisted of 78 eyes of patients who had undergone uneventful phacoemulsification with intraocular implantation at Severance Hospital in Seoul, Korea between February 2020 and January 2021. The Kane formula was compared with six of the existing IOL formulas (SRK/T, Hoffer-Q, Haigis, Holladay1, Holladay2, Barrett Universal II) based on the mean absolute error (MAE), median absolute error (MedAE), and the percentages of eyes within prediction errors of ±0.25D, ±0.50D, and ±1.00D. RESULTS: The Barrett Universal II formula demonstrated the lowest MAEs (0.26±0.17D), MedAEs (0.28D), and percentage of eyes within prediction errors of ±0.25D, ± 0.50D, and ±1.00D, although there was no statistically significant difference between Barrett Universal II-SRK/T (p=0.06), and Barrett Universal II-Kane formula (p<0.51). Following the Barrett Universal II formula, the Kane formula demonstrated the second most accurate formula with MAEs (0.30±0.19D) and MedAEs (0.28D). However, no statistical difference was shown between Kane-Barrett Universal II (p=0.51) and Kane-SRK/T (p=0.14). CONCLUSION: Although slightly better refractory outcome was noted in the Barrett Universal II formula, the performance of the Kane formula in refractive prediction was comparable in IOL power calculation, marking its superiority over many conventional IOL formulas, such as HofferQ, Haigis, Holladay1, and Holladay2.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: To investigate the surgical outcomes of implantable collamer lens (ICL) implantation in eyes with residual myopia after primary laser vision correction (LVC) surgeries. METHODS: This study included patients who underwent ICL implantation and had a history of LVC surgery, including photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) or laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). Visual acuity and refractive error were assessed pre and 3-months postoperatively and the efficacy and safety indices calculated accordingly. RESULTS: A total of 30 eyes of 17 patients were included in this study. At 3 months, the mean logMAR uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), and spherical equivalent were - 0.03 ± 0.11 (include logMAR), - 0.04 ± 0.09 (include logMAR), and - 0.06 ± 0.33 diopters (D), respectively. The 3-month Snellen UDVA was better than 20/20 for 83% of eyes, and 97% of eyes showed an unchanged or improved CDVA after surgery. The mean efficacy and safety indices were 1.11 ± 0.22 and 1.13 ± 0.20, respectively. Further, 93 and 100% of eyes were within ±0.5 and ± 1.0 D of the attempted spherical equivalent refraction, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: ICL implantation in eyes with myopic regression after previous LVC surgery showed safe, effective, and predictable outcomes. TRIAL REGISTRATION: retrospectively registered.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Granular dystrophy is the most common stromal dystrophy. To perform automated segmentation of corneal stromal deposits, we trained and tested a deep learning (DL) algorithm from patients with corneal stromal dystrophy and compared its performance with human segmentation. METHODS: In this retrospective cross-sectional study, we included slit-lamp photographs by sclerotic scatter from patients with corneal stromal dystrophy and real-world slit-lamp photographs via various techniques (diffuse illumination, tangential illumination, and sclerotic scatter). Our data set included 1007 slit-lamp photographs of semi-automatically generated handcraft masks on granular and linear lesions from corneal stromal dystrophy patients (806 for the training set and 201 for test set). For external test (140 photographs), we applied the DL algorithm and compared between automated and human segmentation. For performance, we estimated the intersection of union (IoU), global accuracy, and boundary F1 (BF) score for segmentation. RESULTS: In 201 internal test set, IoU, global accuracy, and BF score with 95 % confidence Interval were 0.81 (0.79-0.82), 0.99 (0.98-0.99), and 0.93 (0.92-0.95), respectively. In 140 heterogenous external test set as a real-world data, those were 0.64 (0.61-0.67), 0.95 (0.94-0.96), and 0.70 (0.64-0.76) via DL algorithm and 0.56 (0.51-0.61), 0.95 (0.94-0.96), and 0.70 (0.65-0.74) via human rater, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: We developed an automated segmentation DL algorithm for corneal stromal deposits in patients with corneal stromal dystrophy. Segmentation on corneal deposits was accurate via the DL algorithm in the well-controlled dataset and showed reasonable performance in a real-world setting. We suggest this automatic segmentation of corneal deposits helps to monitor the disease and can evaluate possible new treatments.

RESUMEN

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes and corneal biomechanical changes between 120-µm and 140-µm cap thickness after small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE). Methods: This prospective study included 150 eyes (150 patients: 91 eyes in the 120-µm group, and 59 eyes in the 140-µm group) who underwent SMILE. Enhanced correction nomograms were applied for patients according to cap thickness. Clinical outcomes, including visual acuity, refraction, and corneal wavefront aberrations, were compared between the two groups. Corneal biomechanics were evaluated using the Corvis ST (Oculus, Wetzlar, Germany). Results: The mean uncorrected-distance visual acuity, safety and efficacy indices, and refractive predictability were comparable in the 120-µm and 140-µm groups after SMILE. The postoperative total corneal root mean square higher-order aberrations (HOAs) and spherical aberrations was 0.48 ± 0.31 and 0.26 ± 0.10 in the 120-µm group, and 0.53 ± 0.16 and 0.34 ± 0.13 in the 140-µm group, which showed significant differences between the two groups (P = 0.027, and <0.001, respectively). Although corneal stiffness decreased after SMILE in both groups, the changes in the deformation amplitude ratio were significantly higher in the 140-µm group than in the 120-µm group (P = 0.022). Conclusions: SMILE with 120-µm and 140-µm cap thickness provided excellent predictable outcomes according to our enhanced correction nomogram. The amount of tissue removal required to achieve the same amount of refractive correction was greater in the thicker cap group. The induction of corneal HOAs and weakening of corneal biomechanics were less pronounced in the thin-cap group, which may be associated with the thinner cap, lesser lenticule thickness, or thicker residual stromal bed. Translational Relevance: Although SMILE with different cap thickness was effective, thicker lenticule thickness in the thick-cap group may be associated with induction of HOAs, and corneal stiffness changes.

RESUMEN

This study evaluated the accuracy of total keratometry (TK) and standard keratometry (K) for intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation in eyes treated with femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery. The retrospective study included a retrospective analysis of data from 62 patients (91 eyes) who underwent uneventful femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery with Artis PL E (Cristalens Industrie, Lannion, France) IOL implantation by a single surgeon between May 2020 and December 2020 in Severance Hospital, Seoul, South Korea. The new IOLMaster 700 biometry device (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Jena, Germany) was used to calculate TK and K. The mean absolute error (MAE), median absolute error (MedAE), and the percentages of eyes within prediction errors of ± 0.25 D, ± 0.50 D, and ± 1.00 D were calculated for all IOL formulas (SRK/T, Hoffer-Q, Haigis, Holladay 1, Holladay 2, and Barrett Universal II). There was strong agreement between K and TK (intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.99), with a mean difference of 0.04 D. For all formulas, MAE tended to be lower for TK than for K, and relatively lower MAE and MedAE values were observed for SRK/T and Holladay 1. Furthermore, for all formulas, a greater proportion of eyes fell within ± 0.25 D of the predicted postoperative spherical equivalent range in the TK group than in the K group. However, differences in MAEs, MedAEs, and percentages of eyes within the above prediction errors were not statistically significant. In conclusion, TK and K exhibit comparable performance for refractive prediction in eyes undergoing femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery.
