purpose : to determine the relationship between refractive errors and ocular components values in carpet weavers methods : refractive errors and ocular components values were investigated on carpet weavers at mashhad city in iran . after selection of samples, the individuals who had ophthalmic and systemic disease effective on the refractive errors were excluded from the study. refractive error...

Background The ophthalmic features of giant cell arteritis (GCA) involve a spectrum severity from transient symptoms to bilateral visual loss anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy or less commonly central retinal cilioretinal artery occlusion. Reported ocular involvement varies between 10-70%. 1,2 . At the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital an interdisciplinary fast track service is provided...

OBJECTIVE: Our aim is to measure the stiffness values in different regions of eye with shear wave elastography (SWE) patients glaucoma and compare results healthy eyes investigate whether there a change elasticity ocular compartments patients.MATERIAL AND METHODS: In this study, we compared 12 open-angle 32 volunteers using an SWE-equipped ultrasonography device. Only right was evaluated all pa...

PURPOSE To investigate the contribution of the individual ocular components, i.e. anterior chamber depth, lens thickness and vitreous chamber depth, to total axial length in patients with esotropic amblyopia. METHODS The study population consisted of 74 children, aged between 5 and 8 years: thirty-seven patients with esotropic amblyopia and 37 healthy volunteers (control group). The participa...

The purpose of this study was to describe the normal ocular anatomy and establish reference values for ophthalmic tests in the Barbary sheep or aoudad (Ammotragus lervia). Aoudad eyes are large and laterally positioned in the head with several specialized anatomic features attributed to evolutionary adaptations for grazing. Normal values for commonly used ophthalmic tests were established, Schi...

Purpose. To examine retinal function in chronic ocular ischemia using multifocal electroretinography (mfERG). Methods. Thirteen patients with unilateral ocular ischemic syndrome (OIS) underwent assessment of ophthalmic systolic blood pressure by ocular pneumoplethysmography, carotid artery patency by ultrasonography, intraocular pressure (IOP) by applanation tonometry, retinal perfusion by fluo...
