We have used strategies similar to those described by Li and He to educate medical students in the use of direct ophthalmoscopy. However, even intense longitudinal training programs in direct ophthalmoscopy…

Related to the article Teaching ophthalmoscopy to medical students (the TOTeMS study) by Dr. Biousse and her colleagues, we wish to share our experience in teaching direct ophthalmoscopy. Typically, students…

In a previous article, we found that elevation of asymmetric intraocular pressure (IOP) in the lateral decubitus position was associated with asymmetric visual field (VF) loss in patients with glaucoma. We…

The authors Kim and associates have found that among subjects who prefer the lateral decubitus position during sleep, the eye in the dependent lateral decubitus position had worse field loss…

We thank Drs Minckler, Francis, Loewen, Mosaed, and Weinreb for their thoughtful comments on our manuscript, as well as for the opportunity to clarify some issues surrounding the data, particularly…

In their otherwise well-written article, Ahuja and associates’ conclusions are inconsistent with their data. They report outcomes at 3 months or more using 4 definitions of success from 88 cases of…

In our study we assessed preoperative cataract grades in manual and femtosecond laser–assisted cataract surgery and evaluated its influence on effective phacoemulsification times. For phacoemulsification the Infinity System was used…

We would like to thank Mayer and associates for describing reduction of ultrasound energy with femtosecond laser phacofragmentation. However, the authors’ methodology is ambiguous and may ignore the contribution of…

We thank Drs dell’Omo and Mura for their comments regarding our article. In almost all of our cases, we performed 5 horizontal and 5 vertical raster scans at least 3…
