The pterygopalatine fossa (PPF) is a small fat-filled space deep within the head on the lateral skull base. It serves as a site of communication between the infratemporal fossa, nasal…
Abstract Purpose Polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) may have frequent recurrences after fluid resolution, but time to recurrence is unclear. This study explored time to first polypoidal recurrence after 1-year fixed-dosing…
Intraocular gas tamponade, widely used in vitreoretinal surgery, can pose risks during air travel and high-altitude mountain trips. Low atmospheric pressure can increase intraocular pressure when the eye’s volume capacity…
Abstract Purpose To optimize the psychometric properties of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) quality of life (QoL) item banks (IBs), and evaluate their performance using computerized adaptive testing (CAT) simulations. Design…
Abstract Diabetic retinopathy (DR) and diabetic macular edema (DME) are leading causes of vision loss globally. This is a comprehensive review focused on both medical and surgical management strategies for…
Abstract Purpose To investigate longitudinal changes in choroidal thickness (ChT) after 1-year treatment of repeated low-level red-light (RLRL) and their predictive value in efficacy on myopia prevention and myopic shift…
Abstract The global burden of myopia continues to expand, and the prevalence of myopia in East Asian populations is of particular concern. With the substantial increase in screen-based electronic devices,…
Abstract The growing environmental impact from healthcare sector necessitates the adoption of sustainable strategies to reuse, recycle, reduce waste, lower carbon emissions, etc. In ophthalmology, surgical waste poses a significant…
Abstract Purpose This study aimed to assess the role of photodynamic therapy (PDT) as an adjunct to anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (Anti-VEGF) intravitreal injections in the treatment of neovascular age-related…
Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) is increasingly impacting medical research and academic writing, including ophthalmology. While GenAI’s influence is expanding, there remains a lack of comprehensive literature that thoroughly addresses its…
