چکیده

ner segment–outer segment junction of the photoreceptor layers and hyperreflectivity of the retinal pigment epithelial layer (Figure 2C). Improved visualization of these changes is likely owing to the greater axial resolution of the hs-UHROCT at 3.5 μm compared with the 5-μm axial resolution of the spectral-domain OCT as well as denser A-scan acquisition by the hs-UHR-OCT. The hs-UHROCT uses a broader bandwidth light source to achieve higher axial resolution. Normal internal controls of the left eye (Figure 2B and D) are included for comparison. Retinaldisruption incommotio retinae isdemonstrated at the level of the outer and inner photoreceptor layers and retinal pigment epithelial layer using prototype hs-UHROCT. These in vivo findings are consistent with results of previous histologic studies of commotio retinae.

Outcomes of Descemetopexy for Double Anterior Chamber after Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty

D Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty (DALK) over the last decade is rapidly becoming the preferred procedure of choice for pathologies of the cornea that do not involve the endothelium. DALK offers certain obvious advantages over Penetrating Keratoplasty (PK). As the donor endothelium is not replaced, the risk of endothelial rejection is negated and also obviates the need for long term steroid use....
