Retinal Detachments Following Successful Idiopathic Macular Holes Surgery
Purpose: : To evaluate long term outcome of successfully operated idiopathic macular holes (IMH).Methods: : We conducted a comparative retrospective case series in two academic centers. IMH were operated with pars plana vitrectomy, intravitreal gas and internal limiting membrane peeling between 2002 and 2005. All these macular holes were analyzed with Stratus OCT before and after the surgery. We divided them into 4 groups: group 1: vitrectomy in pseudophakic eyes; group 2: vitrectomy and cataract extraction as a combined procedure; group 3: vitrectomy followed by cataract extraction; group 4: vitrectomy in pseudophakic eyes. We noted the anatomical and functional results and we studied seri…
The contribution of tear osmolarity measurement to ocular surface assessment in contact lens wearers
Purpose: To determine whether tear osmolarity using the TearLabTM Osmolarity System contributes to the assessment of the ocular surface in contact lens (CL) wearers.Methods: Data were collected from 44 CL wearers (28 tolerant and 16 intolerant) and 34 healthy subjects. Every patient underwent a thorough ophthalmic examination and tear osmolarity test, conjunctival impression cytology and meibomian lipid sampling. Symptoms, break-up time (BUT), tear osmolarity, conjunctival expression of HLA-DR and meibomian fatty acid composition were evaluated.Results: Tear osmolarity was significantly higher in the controls compared to tolerant and intolerant CL wearers (p=0.0007). Flow cytometry results …
