RESUMEN

Marfan syndrome (MS) is an orphan hereditary connective tissue disease associated with a mutation in the FBN1 gene, which pathological manifestations are characterized by polysystemic involvement. The fibrillin-1 protein is an integral component of the sclera and cornea of the eye, and in MS its structure is distrubed. PURPOSE: This study assesses potential structural and functional changes in the cornea and sclera of a patient with MS. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Two groups were formed, comparable in the axial length of the eye and age: the main group - 19 patients (38 eyes) with a verified diagnosis of MS, and the control group - 24 patients (48 eyes) with myopia of varying degrees. The results obtained from MS patients were analyzed depending on the absence or presence of ectopia lentis. In addition to measuring the basic ophthalmological parameters (refraction, axial length, visual acuity), topographic keratometry, anterior segment optical coherence tomography, and ocular response analyzer were used for structural and functional assessment of the cornea and sclera. RESULTS: In MS there was a statistically significant increase in the radius of curvature and a decrease in corneal refraction in the central zone compared to the control group. There were no significant differences in central corneal thickness, but there was a significant decrease in the thickness of the sclera in the limbal zone compared to the control group. There were no statistically significant changes in corneal hysteresis and corneal resistance factor in MS. CONCLUSION: This study confirmed the previously obtained data on the tendency of the optical power to reliably decrease in MS (flattening of the cornea). This symptom can be considered as a compensatory factor affecting clinical refraction, while the decrease in the thickness of the sclera - as the main reason for aaxial length elongation in MS. There were no clear patterns of dependence of the changes in the cornea and sclera analyzed in this study on the presence or absence of ectopia lentis. Changes in the lens, perhaps, should be regarded only as one of the potential components of the ocular symptom complex in MS.

RESUMEN

Optical coherence tomography of the anterior segment of the eye (AS-OCT) is a non-invasive method based on the principles of optical reflectometry (measurement of the degree of backscattering of light passing through transparent or translucent media). Limitations of the first devices of this type were associated with insufficient image quality of the details of the anterior chamber angle and the posterior parts of the lens, primarily due to the "working" level of the scanning wavelength (within 800 µm). Fundamentally new possibilities in the structural and functional assessment of the anterior segment of the eye are associated with the introduction into clinical practice of swept-source AS-OCT device - the CASIA2 anterior optical coherence tomograph (Tomey Corporation, Japan). Its high scanning speed (50 000 A-scans per second) with a wavelength of 1310 µm allows high-quality visualization by building a scan at a depth of 13 mm. The previous model (CASIA SS-1000, Tomey Corporation, Japan) supported scan depth of only 6 mm. This review summarizes the results of research on the clinical use of CASIA2 tomograph.

RESUMEN

Analysis of lens changes in Marfan syndrome (MS), in addition to assessing the position of the lens itself, should include the possibility of examining its supporting and accommodative components (ciliary zonule and ciliary body), or what can be called the entire anatomical complex of the lens. Optical methods of studying the structures of the anterior segment of the eye, due to iris opacity, allow only to analyze the state of the lens within the natural or medically enlarged pupil width. Visualization of the structures located behind the iris is possible with the use of radiation diagnostic methods, in particular ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM). PURPOSE: This study assesses the state of the anatomical complex of the lens in MS using UBM. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study was carried out on clinical material previously used by us to analyze changes in the fibrous membrane of the eye in MS. At the first stage, the main (19 patients with MS, 38 eyes) and the control (24 patients with myopia, 48 eyes) groups were formed for comparative evaluation. The formed groups were standardized according to the age of the patients and the axial length of the eye. At the second stage, patients with MS were divided into subgroups depending on the absence or presence of biomicroscopic signs of ectopia lentis (22 and 16 eyes, respectively). For UBM, an ultrasound linear sensor with a scanning frequency of 50 MHz was used (Aviso device, Quantel Medical, France). Various biometric UBM indicators were determined: lens thickness, diameter of the lens, lens-axial length factor, iris-lens angle, iris-lens contact distance, posterior chamber depth, length of the fibers of ciliary zonule, thickness of the ciliary body, sclera-ciliary process angle. RESULTS: There are changes in the anatomical complex of the lens as a whole in MS (in the lens itself, the ciliary zonule, and the ciliary body), which are characterized by an increase in lens thickness and a decrease in the diameter of the lens, an increase in the length of the fibers of the ciliary zonule and a decrease in the thickness of the ciliary body. At the same time, the displacement of the lens detected by optical biomicroscopy (ectopia lentis) can be considered as an advanced stage of changes in the anatomical complex of the lens. CONCLUSION: UBM provides the possibility of full-fledged visualization of all components of the anatomical complex of the lens in terms of both diagnostics, and monitoring of changes in MS. The question of the advisability of including this method in the algorithm for diagnosing ocular manifestations in order to verify the MS remains open. Possible obstacles may be, on the one hand, related to the need for special and expensive equipment, and on the other hand, the absence of a generally accepted «normal¼ values of UBM indicators of the anatomical complex of the lens.

RESUMEN

Prevention and treatment of anterior capsular contraction syndrome (ACCS) is a relevant problem in cataract surgery. PURPOSE: The study was performed to develop a femtosecond laser-assisted technique for anterior capsulotomy in anterior capsular contraction syndrome and assess its preliminary results in preventing the progression of pathological changes in the capsular bag. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The examination and femtosecond laser-assisted treatment without additional surgical intervention was performed in 6 patients (6 eyes) aged 69 to 73 years with anterior capsular contraction syndrome. Femtosecond laser-assisted anterior capsulotomy was performed using the VICTUS system (Technolas Perfect Vision, Germany). Capsulotomy diameter was 4.0-4.5 mm, laser radiation energy - 9000 nJ, laser exposure depth 900-1000 µm. RESULTS: The diameter of the anterior capsulotomy before treatment was 2.85 mm [2.75; 2.93]. After 1 month, the diameter of the anterior capsular opening was 2.88 mm [2.78; 2.96] (p>0.05). One year after femtosecond laser intervention, the anterior capsulotomy opening was almost the same shape and diameter - 2.84 mm [2.74; 2.94] (p>0.05). CONCLUSION: Femtosecond laser-assisted circular capsulotomy is an effective and safe method for preventing the progression of anterior capsular contraction syndrome in the absence of severe IOL decentration and for maintaining the diameter of the anterior capsular opening of at least 2.5-3.0 mm.

RESUMEN

Modern trends in advancement of phaco surgery techniques in patients with ectopia lentis (including patients with Marfan syndrome) are characterized by the transition from complete removal of the lens (lensectomy) to aspiration of the lens substance and attempts to preserve and reposition the capsular bag. This case study analyzes the results of surgical treatment of bilateral ectopia lentis in a 6-year-old patient with Marfan syndrome. The specifics of microinvasive phaco surgery consisted in capsular bag preservation and endocapsular fixation of the intraocular lens. The article presents the results of ophthalmological observation over a seven-year period.

RESUMEN

This article summarizes scientific and practical results of hybrid femtosecond laser-assisted phacoemulsification (HFE) including study of clinical and technical aspects of the intervention and evaluation of post-surgical functional state of the eye on the basis of clinical, morphological and biomechanical data. The HFE technology should be considered the method of choice for microinvasive phaco surgery, its main advantage being the possibility of controlled handling of such important surgical stages as anterior circular continuous capsulorhexis and nucleus fragmentation on a closed eyeball, which significantly reduces the risk of complications and decreases of effective ultrasound time.

RESUMEN

The article reviews the findings on the anatomy, morphological and biomechanical features of the accommodation apparatus. Modern methods of imaging and biometry confirm the validity of the Helmholtz lenticular theory of accommodation, according to which its mechanism involves three main components: the ciliary body, the zonular fibres and the lens capsule, the lens itself. Based on this, there is certain interest in studying the degree of participation of each of these components in the development of age-related changes in accommodation (presbyopia).

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To evaluate cytokine levels in the aqueous humor (AH) of patients with Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) and bullous keratopathy (BK). MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study included 74 patients (74 eyes). The first group consisted of 31 patients (72.7±9.2 years) with FECD; the second group included 35 patients (72.4±9.1 years) with BK. The control group comprised 8 patients (74.3±4.1 years) with immature cataract. Before surgery, patients underwent pachymetry of the central cornea (RTvue-100 OCT, Optovue, USA). Patients of groups 1 and 2 underwent endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK or DMEK), or penetrating corneal transplantation. Patients of the control group underwent phacoemulsification with implantation of intraocular lens. The initial stage of the surgery involved AH sample collection for evaluation of cytokine levels (IL-1ß, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-7, IL-8, IL-10, IL-12(p70), IL-13, IL-17, G-CSF, GM-CSF, IFNγ, MCP-1, MIP-1ß and TNF-α) by fluorescent flow cytometry using the Bio-Plex Pro Human Cytokine Panel, 17-plex (Bio-Rad, USA). RESULTS: Multiplex analysis of the AH content did not show any statistically significant differences in cytokine levels between decompensated FECD and BK eyes. The levels of IL-6, IL-8, GM-CSF, IFNγ, MCP-1, MIP-1ß were significantly elevated in FECD and BK eyes compared with healthy control. An insignificant deviation of IL-4 and IL-13 levels was detected in FECD and BK eyes compared with healthy controls. There were no significant differences in IL-1ß and TNF-α (indicators of acute inflammation) between the study groups. CONCLUSION: The obtained data confirm that FECD and BK are associated with disruption of ocular immune privilege that leads to chronic local inflammation, which in turn causes remodeling of the corneal tissues resulting in fibrosis.

RESUMEN

Studies devoted to the assessment of lens capsule biomechanics can be divided into fundamental and applied. The former are oriented towards analysis of various indicators characterizing elasticity of the capsule as a basal membrane that maintains and changes the shape of the lens, and the latter deal with widespread introduction of modern microinvasive methods of phaco surgery into clinical practice. PURPOSE: To assess age-related changes in lens capsule biomechanics based on atomic force microscopy (AFM). MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study included 50 central fragments of the anterior capsule of the human lens obtained intraoperatively during ultrasonic phacoemulsification by continuous circular capsulorhexis. The measurements were carried out in the Fast Force Volume (FFV) mode. The force curves were processed in the Nanoscope Analysis software (Bruker, USA) using the Hertz model that allows calculating the Young's modulus of the capsule sample based on the dependence of the force on the puncture depth. RESULTS: There was no statistically significant difference in the «stiffness¼ of the inner and outer surfaces before and after removal of the subcapsular epithelium (p=0.25). In all cases, the inner surface of the capsule turned out to be «harder¼ than the outer one. In this case, the ratio of Young's modulus of the inner and outer surfaces has a significant dependence on age (p<0.001). With an increase in age from 50 to 90 years, this ratio decreased from ~7 to ~1.5. This was due to a simultaneous change in Young's modulus of the opposite nature: an increase in the stiffness of the outer surface and its decrease in the inner one. CONCLUSION: It is possible to assess lens capsule biomechanics using AFM if the subcapsular epithelium is present. In this case, the objects of study are the areas of the capsule free of epithelium, and the epithelial cells themselves can be used to identify the inner surface of the capsule. Regardless of age, the stiffness of the inner surface of the anterior lens capsule significantly exceeds that of the outer surface.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: A retrospective analysis of the results of surgical treatment of complicated uveal cataracts of different origin. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study analyzed the results of surgical treatment of uveal cataract in 30 patients (34 eyes) who were divided into three groups by uveitis etiology. The first group included 11 patients with spondyloarthritis associated with the HLA-B27 antigen; the second group included 10 patients with juvenile chronic arthritis and spondyloarthritis, negative for HLA-B27 antigen; the third group consisted of 9 patients with other systemic autoimmune diseases and uveitis of unknown etiology, also negative for the HLA-B27 antigen. The average age of the patients was 35.8±2.6; 30.8±3.8 and 34.0±2.3 years, respectively. Four patients (6 eyes) with juvenile chronic arthritis and severe ribbon-like corneal degeneration underwent standard intracapsular cataract cryoextraction with subsequent spectacle correction of aphakia. In other cases, ultrasound phacoemulsification with implantation of an intraocular lens (IOL) was used as a surgical aid. RESULTS: Regardless of the surgery technique and the cause of uveal cataract, a statistically significant decrease in the number of exacerbations per year (p<0.0001) and an increase in best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) were noted after its removal. In the long-term follow-up (2-24 months), 9 patients experienced persistent decompensation of the IOP level, which required various types of antiglaucoma surgery. CONCLUSION: Surgical treatment of uveal cataracts of various etiologies with adequate pre- and postoperative therapy provides an improvement in visual acuity and a reduction in the frequency of inflammation recurrence. Considering the high likelihood of IOP decompensation in the long-term postoperative period, IOP control should be given attention in such cases.

RESUMEN

The question of potential changes in the nerve fibers of the cornea induced by phacosurgery remains poorly investigated. This is a review of results of many individual studies aimed at assessing the condition of corneal nerve fibers following different techniques of cataract removal. The authors substantiate the necessity for structural analysis of fiber changes based on in vivo confocal microscopy of the cornea. Functional assessment of corneal sensitivity (esthesiometry) does not allow objective conclusions, for several reasons. Further studies on corneal nerve changes after phacosurgery could be directed at improving software products for objective quantitative assessment of corneal nerve fibers and analyzing long-term results of various phacosurgery techniques.

RESUMEN

Progressive hyperopia development in the long-term period after radial keratotomy (RC) is associated with not only surgical effects, but also individual biomechanical features of the fibrous tunic of the eye, its age-related changes, and hydrodynamic disturbances. When choosing a method of correction, one should take into account a number of features characteristic of this induced refractive disorder: instability and irregularity of refraction, coexisting presbyopia, and, in some cases, anisometropia. Correction of progressive hyperopia after RC can be achieved with eyeglasses, or contacts, or intraocular lenses depending on the subjective factor - the so-called patient adherence. The most effective in terms of functionality is contact correction with scleral rigid gas-permeable lenses, and in the presence of pronounced lens opacities - intraocular correction.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: Potential changes in corneal nerve fibers (CNF) induced by cataract phacoemulsification remain insufficiently studied. The need for research in this direction is dictated by a number of circumstances: introduction of corneal confocal microscopy into clinical practice, the need for phaco surgery in the presence of corneal changes of various genesis, the possible negative impact of laser radiation during hybrid (femtosecond laser-assisted) phacoemulsification. PURPOSE: To assess the changes in CNF after various methods of microinvasive cataract surgery. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The studies were conducted in patients aged 50 to 60 years who underwent standard ultrasound and hybrid phacoemulsification; the patients were respectively divided into two groups (30 surgeries each). The algorithm for assessing the state of CNF involved laser confocal microscopy using original software. To quantify the state of the nerves, two coefficients were used: CNF orientation anisotropy (KΔL) and CNF orientation symmetry (Ksym). RESULTS: Regardless of the surgery technique, tendencies were noted for the orientation anisotropy coefficient to decrease and the orientation symmetry coefficient to increase, which are conditionally comparable with previously identified age-related changes in CNF. After hybrid phacoemulsification, a decrease in the orientation anisotropy coefficient 2-2.5 months after the intervention turned out to be statistically less significant compared to the standard ultrasound technique. CONCLUSION: Further research should be aimed at analyzing the long-term results of both microinvasive phacosurgery techniques and the «classical¼ extracapsular cataract extraction, which remains the method of choice in a number of clinical situations.

RESUMEN

Potential obstruction of the anterior chamber angle by iris root is a key factor of the pathogenesis of angle-closure glaucoma. Development and adoption of ultrasound biomicroscopy and optical coherence tomography in clinical practice have significantly expanded the capabilities of studying the structures of the anterior eye segment in terms of angle closure risk factors through improving visualization depth and quality of examination, including different variants of iris structure and potential changes of its shape in mydriasis. The article reviews various studies dedicated to the progression of primary angle-closure glaucoma and its dependence on the biometric parameters of the eye and changes in pupil size.

RESUMEN

One of the directions of advancing phaco technology is related to adoption of hybrid phacoemulsification for clinical practice. Potential postsurgical changes in the macular area, when other factors are equal, can be seen as a conditional criterion for the injury rate of phaco surgeries. PURPOSE: To evaluate morphological and functional condition of the macular area after different types of phaco cataract surgeries. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Two groups were formed for comparative study in accordance with criteria for standardization and maximum mitigation of the impact of other factors on the condition of the retina - with standard ultrasound and hybrid (femtolaser-assisted) phacoemulsification (30 operations in each group). Examinations were performed initially, then 7-10 days, and 2-3 month after the surgery. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) and multifocal electroretinography (mfERG) were performed for evaluation of the morphological and functional condition of the macular area. RESULTS: There was no statistically significant dependence of linear and volumetric measures in the macular area on phaco surgery method, and the few variations were most likely related to increasing the time of ultrasound action in standard phacoemulsification. Revealed changes turned out to be significantly less marked than what is considered critical for development of macular edema. Improvement of baseline multifocal electroretinography measurements (increase of the density of retinal biopotential and decrease of latent time) just after the surgery results from the effect the lens opacification has on basic parameters, regardless of phacoemulsification technique. There were no significant differences in postsurgical measurements of multifocal electroretinography obtained in similar periods of postsurgical assessment after standard ultrasound and hybrid phacoemulsification. CONCLUSION: The results prove the safety of phaco surgery methods and the absence of negative impact of femtolaser component of hybrid phacoemulsification on structural and functional condition of central retina.

RESUMEN

The application of atomic force microscopy (AFM) in ophthalmology is considered with respect of the classical anatomical division of the eye into anterior and posterior segments. The review presents the findings of published research studies that involved AFM as a method for assessing anatomical and functional condition of the structures of anterior eye segment. One significant line of research is related to the use of AFM technologies for evaluation of morphological and biomechanical characteristics of various parts of the eye lens. That topic draws interest due to the need of furthering the understanding of cataractogenesis, as well as the significance of the anatomical and functional characteristics of the lens capsule in the mechanism of accommodation and modern phaco surgery.
