Introducción: La corrección de ametropías moderadas-severas mediante lentes fáquicas permite conservar la acomodación, además, de obtener una mejor calidad óptica, reversibilidad del procedimiento y la opción de corregir defectos refractivos residuales mediante cirugía corneal mínima invasiva. ...
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the association between intraocular pressure (IOP) and premature atherosclerotic coronary artery disease (PACAD) by comparing central corneal thicknesses (CCTs) measurements. METHODS: One hundred-eighty-six subjects were enrolled in this cross...
ABSTRACT Purpose: To investigate the impact of different sizes of steep meridian clear corneal incisions for phacoemul sification on anterior corneal higher-order aberrations. Methods: Medical records of patients who underwent 2.2-mm coaxial micro-incision cataract surgery or 2.75-mm coaxial small-inci...

ABSTRACT Corneal ectasia is one of the main complications of keratorefractive procedures. In this report, we describe a case of corneal ectasia after laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis), which progressed with acute hydrops and aqueous leakage and required a suture for correction....

Resumo Objetivo: analisar a influência da escolaridade e do grau de parentesco na decisão familiar pela doação de córneas para transplantes. Método: desenho quantitativo, transversal e retrospectivo com amostra composta por 291 fichas das entrevistas realizadas com familiares de potenciais doado...
Eye burns due to the accidental application of pharmacological or nonpharmacological substances packaged in plastic dropper bottles have been described for more than three decades and continue to occur. These burns can cause potentially serious corneal injuries. We report the case of a patient who mistak...
ABSTRACT Purpose: This study was performed to evaluate the outcomes of accelerated corneal cross-linking in keratoconic corneas with thinnest pachymetry values of <400 µm. Methods: The study included 28 eyes of 24 patients. The uncorrected and best-corrected visual acuities (logMAR), flattest and s...
ABSTRACT Purpose: To measure the central-to-peripheral corneal thickness and its volume according to age and gender in 10-30-year-old patients with Down syndrome (DS) and in matched individuals without DS. Methods: In the report, 202 normal pattern right eyes of patients with Down syndrome and 190 righ...
ABSTRACT Purpose: A significant transient increase in intraocular pressure in individuals wearing swimming goggles has been demonstrated in previous studies. These findings suggested that wearing swimming goggles could represent a significant risk factor for worsening of corneal parameters in patients w...
