Inflammation after sclerocorneal versus clear corneal tunnel phacoemulsification.
2000
Abstract Objective To compare the postoperative inflammation after phacoemulsification followed by intraocular lens (IOL) implantation by means of sclerocorneal versus clear corneal tunnel incision. Design Randomized controlled clinical trial. Participants One hundred eyes of 100 patients were examined at a German University eye hospital. Intervention One hundred eyes with cataract necessitating phacoemulsification with posterior chamber IOL implantation were randomly assigned to receive a temporal sclerocorneal or clear corneal tunnel incision by a single surgeon. Main outcome measures Preoperative and postoperative inflammation was evaluated by measurement of flare using laser flare photo…
Ocular ductions after rectus muscle recession and resection in thyroid eye disease.
2019
Background: Recession and resection of rectus muscles for correction of strabismus in Thyroid Eye Disease (TED) is relatively unpopular as it is assumed to enhance the restriction of ocular ductions. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to compare ductions of recession only and recess/resect procedures. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the charts of 119 patients who underwent strabismus surgery for TED from 1991 to 2015, of which 102 were included in the present study. Forty-six interventions were performed on horizontal, 56 on vertical rectus muscles; comprising 41 recess/resect surgeries for horizontal deviations, and 7 in patients with vertical strabismus. Ocular ductions and ali…
