Outcomes Worse for Immediate Sequential Bilateral Cataract Surgery
Immediate sequential bilateral cataract surgery (ISBCS) is associated with worse visual outcomes compared with short-interval (one to 14 days between operations) delayed sequential bilateral cataract surgery (DSBCS-14) and long-interval (15 to 90 days) DSBCS (DSBCS-90).
Intravitreal Injection Prior to Cataract Surgery Increases Risk for Intraoperative Complications
Researchers identify iatrogenic damage following poor injection technique as a likely cause.
Aniridia-Associated Keratopathy Stems From Limbal Stem ell Niche Dysfunction
An investigation reviews the connections between abnormalities in the limbal niche microenvironment and aniridia-associated keratopathy.
Postoperative Prostaglandin Analogue Use Not Linked to Cystoid Macular Edema
Researchers say cataract surgery patients with no macular pathology may benefit from IOP-controlling medication.
Machine Learning Model Predicts 10-Year Cataract Surgery Risk
The research shows the software is “marginally superior” to conventional logistic models.
Patient Face Mask Use Not Associated With Endophthalmitis During Intravitreal Injection
The study also suggests that patient-worn face masks do little to reduce the risk.
Nearly a Third of Zika Patients Have Ocular Conditions
Ocular abnormalities were even seen in children who did not develop microcephaly.

Digital Image-Guided Systems May Cut Cataract Surgery Time
Researchers put a digital image-guided system for toric IOL alignment to the test.
Cataract Surgery Before Eyelid Repair Does Not Raise Endophthalmitis Risk
Many surgeons chose to perform eyelid procedures first because to reduce eye irritation and chances for postoperative endophthalmitis, according to a survey.
Implantable Glaucoma Devices Carry Risk of Endophthalmitis
Instances of infection are rare but surgeons must be aware of the link, the study says.
Surgical Modifications Can Avoid Postoperative Hypotonia
The technique employs self-resorbable sutures in intraocular lens implantation.
Blue-Filtering IOLs Do Not Limit AMD Development, Progression
The investigation found no correlations between the blue light-filtering devices and wet AMD.
Delay in Treatment Leads to Poor Outcomes in Fungal Keratitis
Ocular trauma with vegetative matter is a major risk factor of fungal keratitis, the study shows.
Study Shares Strategies for Reducing Open Globe Injury Endophthalmitis
Prompt globe closure and subconjunctival antibiotics can help lower risk.
Cataract Surgeries Down in Those Diagnosed With Alzheimer Disease
The rate of cataract surgeries is substantially lower among older adults newly diagnosed with Alzheimer disease (AD) compared with their peers without AD.
