Penetrating ocular trauma is one of the most important causes of vision loss, especially in men, and can be associated with intraocular foreign bodies. The incidence of intraocular cilia after trauma is very low. Here we report the case of a 24-year-old man who visited Poostchi Ophthalmology Clinic (Shiraz, Iran) due to a gradual vision loss in his left eye over the past 2 months. The probable ...

During accommodation, the refractive changes occur when the ciliary muscle contracts, releasing resting zonular tension and allowing the lens capsule to mold the lens into an accommodated form. This results in centripetal movement of the ciliary processes and lens edge. The goal of this study was to understand the relationship between accommodative refractive changes, ciliary process movements ...

PURPOSE We investigated the relationships between the ocular anterior segment biometry and the ocular high-order aberrations (HOAs) during accommodation by combined ultralong scan depth optical coherence tomography (UL-OCT) and wavefront sensor. METHODS We enrolled 35 right eyes of young healthy subjects (21 women and 14 men; age, 25.6 ± 3.1 years; spherical equivalent refractive error, -0.41...

PURPOSE The aim was to evaluate the repeatability of dynamic measurement of the accommodative stimulus-response curve (ASRC) at three different dioptric speeds using a modified instrument and its agreement with two other methods. METHODS Twenty-nine adults (23.5 ± 2.0 years) were enrolled in the study. ASRC was measured monocularly using three methods: dynamic and static measurement using a m...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficiency of long-term cataract surgery using low-cost intraocular lens implantation in community campaigns. METHODS Fifty-eight randomly selected patients were evaluated four years after phacoemulsification and Ioflex intraocular lens implantation. Causes of low visual acuity related to the intraocular lens were evaluated, and treatment costs were calculated. RES...

purpose: to compare the results of three-piece and one- piece hydrophobic acrylic posterior chamber intraocular lens (iol) with poly methyl metacrylate (pmma) iol implanted during lensectomy, posterior capsulotomy and anterior vitrectomy for congenital or developmental cataract. methods: this is a historical cohort study conducted on patients with congenital or developmental cataract who underw...

purpose: to compare the effect of implantation of a single-piece hydrophilic foldable acrylic intraocular lens (iol) with rectangular optic edge and a single-piece polymethyl methacrylate (pmma) iol with rounded optic edges on posterior capsular opacification )pco(. methods: this randomized clinical trial study comprised 74 eyes with senile cataract in an otherwise normal eye in patients older ...

purpose: to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the artisan phakic intraocular lens (piol) for the correction of high myopia. methods: in this prospective study of 22 eyes of 14 patients with high myopia, artisan piols (ophtec bv) were implanted. uncorrected visual acuity (ucva), best corrected visual acuity (bcva), refraction, astigmatism, safety, and predictability were analyzed. results: the...
