RESUMEN

Purpose:To describe the visual outcomes and problems that resulted from surgical treatment of nanophthalmic complete retinal detachment (RD) with retina-lens contact. Methods: A multicenter retrospective case series with deep sclerectomy as a treatment was performed. Results: Five cases had extensive deep sclerectomies, 3 with intended drainage of subretinal fluid (SRF). The RD resolved 1 week postoperatively in 4 cases and within 1 month in 1 case. The visual acuity improved from light perception to a median of 20/100. Three cases had longstanding lens touch beyond 1 year and improved VA to 20/100, 20/150, and hand motions, respectively. Complications included focal lens dialysis in 2 cases (passive drainage of SRF) and lens or intraocular lens dislocation in 1 case each (active drainage of SRF). Ultrasound biomicroscopy and anterior optical coherence tomography showed a very narrow angle and short zonules. Conclusions: Deep sclerectomy results in good anatomic and functional improvements in advanced cases of nanophthalmos exudative detachment, which is often considered to be incurable.

RESUMEN

Introduction: The treatment of iridociliary and choroidal melanoma relies on the patient's systemic health, tumor size, location, related features, state of the opposing eye, and personal preferences. The two categories are radiation and surgical techniques. Transpupillary thermotherapy, plaque radiotherapy, charged particle irradiation, local resection, enucleation, orbital exenteration, and experimental nanoparticle therapy are all options for treating choroidal melanoma. Case Presentation: The method that entails creating a partial thickness circular, rectangular, or polyhedral scleral flap in the region covering the tumor after removing a portion of the extraocular muscles is the most popular method for local excision in choroidal or choroidal-ciliary body cancers. We discuss our experience treating iridociliary melanoma using block excision and stereotactic irradiation on a linear accelerator with TD 20.0 Gy. Conclusion: One of the treatment modalities is the combined treatment approach using stereotactic irradiation and tumor resection, and our results 1 year after therapy are comparable to the rates of local control and anatomic eye preservation to those achieved in studies of comparable uveal melanoma treatment modalities.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: To describe the pattern and mutual relationships between basic biometric characteristics of the eye in a Central European Caucasian population. METHODS: A single-centre retrospective study of 2340 patients (965 males, 1375 females) scheduled for cataract surgery between 2014 and 2016. Measurements using laser interferometry included AL (axial length), K (average corneal curvature), ACD (anterior chamber depth), LT (lens thickness), CCT (central corneal thickness), AST (astigmatism) and WTW (white to white). Subjects were stratified by gender and controlled for age. Descriptive, correlation and regression analyses were performed on the data. RESULTS: The mean AL was 23.33 ± 1.01 mm - higher in males (23.59 ± 0.99 mm), in comparison to females (23.15 ± 0.99 mm). The elderly had lower ACD and higher LT, while males had higher AL independent of age. Furthermore, LT and K decreased with AL, while ACD decreased with LT and increased with AL independent of age and gender. CONCLUSIONS: The estimates of the biometrics are obtained on a large sample of subjects and can serve as normative values for Lenstar LS900 in the Central European Caucasian population.

RESUMEN

Background and Objectives: This retrospective consecutive case control study compares best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), mesopic contrast sensitivity (CS), color vision, and glare between a group of eyes with blue-light-filtering intraocular lenses and another with UV-light-filtering intraocular lenses. Materials and Methods: We used Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study charts to compare BCVA, Rabin charts for mesopic CS testing, Oculus HMC Anomaloscope MR to test for chromatic discrimination, and Oculus Mesotest II to measure scotopic CS with glare. For analysis, we used descriptive statistics and compared means with parametric and non-parametric tests. The level of significance was set as α = 0.05. Results: For the group with the blue-light-filtering intraocular lens, the average results were BCVA = 0.96 (SD ± 0.09), CS = 1.78 log (SD ± 0.12), chromatic discrimination results M = 63.91 (SD ± 11.88), R = 60.07 (SD ± 7.89). For mesopic CS with glare, the group achieved on average 2.54 (SD ± 1.50) points out of 4. For the group with the UV-light-filtering intraocular lens, the average results were BCVA = 0.93 (SD ± 0.14), CS = 1.79 log (SD ± 0.13), chromatic discrimination results M = 65.38 (SD ± 17.14), R = 60.79 (SD ± 10.39). For mesopic CS with glare, this group achieved an average of 2.79 (SD ± 1.53) points out of 4. Conclusion: No significant differences (p > 0.05) were found in any of the tested parameters between the analyzed groups. Slight shift in color vision was observed, although not statistically significant.

RESUMEN

Background and Objectives: To evaluate the performance of intraocular lenses (IOLs) using power calculation formulas on different types of IOL. Materials and Methods: 120 eyes and four IOL types (BioLine Yellow Accurate Aspheric IOL (i-Medical), TECNIS ZCB00, TECNIS ZA9003 (Johnson & Johnson) (3-piece IOL) and Softec HD (Lenstec)) were analyzed. The performance of Haigis, Barret Universal II and SKR-II formulas were compared between IOL types. The mean prediction error (ME) and mean absolute prediction error (MAE) were analyzed. Results: The overall percentage of eyes predicted within ±0.25 diopters (D) was 40.8% for Barret; 39.2% Haigis and 31.7% for SRK-II. Barret and Haigis had a significantly lower MAE than SRK-II (p < 0.05). The results differed among IOL types. The largest portion of eyes predicted within ±0.25 D was with the Barret formula in ZCB00 (33.3%) and ZA9003 (43.3%). Haigis was the most accurate in Softec HD (50%) and SRK-II in Biolline Yellow IOL (50%). ZCB00 showed a clinically significant hypermetropic ME compared to other IOLs. Conclusions: In general, Barret formulas had the best performance as a universal formula. However, the formula should be chosen according to the type of IOL in order to obtain the best results. Constant optimizations are necessary for the Tecnis IOL ZCB00 and ZA9003, as all of the analyzed formulas achieved a clinically significant poor performance in this type of IOL. ZCB00 also showed a hypermetropic shift in ME in all the formulas.

RESUMEN

Nanophthalmic uveal effusion syndrome (UES) is an extremely rare idiopathic disease characterized by a short axial length of the eye, extremely thick sclera and choroid. These structural changes can lead to spontaneous serous detachment of the retina and peripheral choroid. There are many other causes of UES such as trauma, inflammation, cataract surgery, glaucoma, or retinal detachment. UES is classified into three types. All are characterized by a relapsing-remitting clinical course. The loss of visual acuity ranges from mild to very severe, depending on macular involvement. Changes of the retinal pigment epithelium develop secondary after long-standing choroidal effusion and retinal detachment. Subretinal exudates could be seen and mistakenly diagnosed as chorioretinitis. UES can be very difficult to treat. The most commonly used treatment is surgery involving the creation of surgical sclerostomies (scleral window surgery) or partial thickness sclerectomies to support transscleral drainage. In our case, we present a bilateral nanophthalmic UES, which was misdiagnosed as bilateral ocular Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease. We documented the course of the disease and the results of the different surgical approaches in both eyes. A pars plana vitrectomy was performed in the right eye and a sclerectomy with sclerostomies in the left eye. In the left eye, even long lasting loss of visual acuity due to a serous retinal detachment was partially reversed.

RESUMEN

Wyburn-Mason syndrome is a rare, non-hereditary congenital neurocutaneous disorder leading to arteriovenous malformations. Malformations are characterized by an artery that is directly connected to veins without a capillary system and forms a fragile mass of abnormal vessels. It can be found in the midbrain, in the eyes, orbit, and rarely in cutaneous nevi. Neurological and ocular symptoms are the most common. Ocular signs and symptoms include abnormally dilatated vessels of conjunctiva, nystagmus, strabismus, vitreous hemorrhage, vein occlusions, retinal detachment, etc. Neurological symptoms may include headaches, paralysis, epistaxis, hydrocephalus, and hemiparesis. Imaging modalities such as MRI/CT angiography, optical coherence angiography, and fluorescein angiography are the most important for the identification of arteriovenous malformations. In our case report, we present an eight-month-old girl with an incidental finding of retinal angiomatosis on the left eye and was subsequently diagnosed with Wyburn-Mason syndrome. We compare the findings from the first visit to her clinical findings 20 years later.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is one of the leading causes of blindness in the elderly population. Although there are prevalence studies for AMD in Europe, data are scarce for the Slovakian population. METHODS: This was a prospective, multicenter, non-interventional, mobile clinic-based cross-sectional study that assessed age-specific prevalence of AMD in the Slovakian population and risk factors associated with AMD. The type of AMD was graded based on the international age-related maculopathy grading system; optical coherence tomography (OCT) was used for the differential diagnosis. Overall, 3,278 patients were screened; the fundus photographs, OCT scans, and self-reports were collected at the mobile clinic in a single visit. RESULTS: The prevalence of AMD in the study population was 8.99% (wet AMD 1.01%; dry AMD 7.85%), whereas the extrapolated estimate in the entire Slovakian population was 3.3% (wet AMD 0.3%; dry AMD 3.0%). Age, smoking, and hypertension were risk factors associated with AMD; however, contrary to reports in the literature, no gender-specific association was observed. CONCLUSION: Based on the results of this study, mobile clinics may be an effective way to extend health care access to a larger population. Early diagnosis of AMD will assist in early treatment and effective disease management of the population at risk.
