Test Article(s) / The ACRYSOF IQ PanOptix Presbyopia-Correcting IOL Model Product(s): TFNT00 is a single-piece ultraviolet and blue light filtering foldable multifocal IOL. The biconvex optic is 6.0 mm in diameter and the lens has an overall diameter of 13.0 mm. The multifocal optic diffractive structure is in the central 4.5 mm portion of the anterior surface of the optical zone and divides the incoming light to create a +2.17 D intermediate and a +3.25 D near add power (IOL plane). The anterior surface is designed with 0.10 microns of negative spherical aberration to compensate for the positive spherical aberration of the average human cornea. This IOL is intended for primary implantation in the capsular bag in the posterior chamber for the visual correction of aphakia secondary to removal of a cataractous lens in adult patients with and without presbyopia, who desire near, intermediate and distance vision with increased spectacle independence.

A combination of gate-keeping and Bonferroni adjustment strategies will be employed to control the overall type I error rate. Descriptive statistics generated for safety and performance parameters will be based upon the type of parameter (ie, whether the data are categorical or continuous) being analyzed and by 1st and 2nd operative eyes for monocular measures. For categorical parameters, the statistics used to summarize the data descriptively include sample size, number in the category, and percent in the category. For continuous parameters, sample size, mean, median, standard deviation, minimum, and maximum will be presented. Summaries of logMAR visual acuity will also include two-sided 90% confidence intervals. Responses to the satisfaction question will be analyzed as a categorical variable. Contrast sensitivity will be scored and analyzed per CSV- 1000E instructions. Defocus curves will be generated for binocular defocus data, including 90% confidence intervals, with amount of defocus along the x-axis and logMAR VA at each defocus point along the y-axis. To examine the inter-site variation in outcome, a forest plot will be produced by plotting the difference in means and associated standard error for each site. An interim analysis will be performed when all subjects complete Visit 3A (20-40 days post 2nd eye implantation) in order to support the study publication plan of the test articles for near, intermediate and distance visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, defocus curves and adverse events.

    Advances in Ophthalmology & Visual System Case Report Open Access Case report: repair of open globe injury Abstract Volume 3 Issue 1 - 2015 Globe rupture is a common sight-threatening ophthalmic emergency. We present a twelve-year-old girl with ocular trauma by sharp object resulting in corneal laceration, Nader Hussein Fouad Hassan Department of Ophthalmology, Benha University Hospital, hyphema, traumatic cataract and iris prolapse. This case illustrates the importance of early Egypt diagnosis, proper wound repair of ruptured globe as well as management of post-operative complications and value of early post-operative visual rehabilitation. Correspondence: Nader Hussein Fouad Hassan, Ophthalmology department, Benha University Hospital, Keywords: globe rupture, open globe injury, corneal laceration Kaliyobeya, Egypt, Tel +201224727982, Email Received: October 16, 2015 | Published: October 19, 2015 Abbreviations: FB, foreign body; VA, visual acuity; CT scan, patient then was given tetanus immunization, antiemetics, analgesics computerized tomography; RD, retinal detachment; INR, international and intravenous broad spectrum antibiotics and prepared for globe normalized ratio; GA, general anesthesia; D, diopter rupture repair under GA. Laboratory tests included a full blood count, liver function tests, INR, prothrombin time, partial thromboplastin Introduction time, kidney function tests, all were within normal. Ruptured Globe is a common ophthalmic emergency. It is a leading cause of blindness. Early examination with high level of suspicion is recommended in any patient with ocular trauma. Many signs may obscure detection of globe rupture, so the ophthalmologist should examine the patient thoroughly and treat the patient as early as impossible including early visual rehabilitation for young patients to prevent amblyopia. Globe rupture may be associated with traumatic hyphema, traumatic cataract, lens dislocation, vitreous hemorrhage, retinal detachment, uveal prolapse, scleral wound, orbital wall fractures, or optic nerve damage.

Methods: Case report and review of medical literature. Results: A rare complication of acute keratoconus-like corneal hydrops occurred in a patient following the use of ocular massage to maintain satisfactory aqueous humor filtration after trabeculectomy. The patient had a history of high myopia but denied previous ocular trauma, allergic disease and a family history of keratoconus. Slit-lamp examination demonstrated keratoconus-like corneal hydrops with formation of epithelial microcystic, and intrastromal cleft.

  • CAUSES, COMPLICATIONS &TREATMENT of A“RED EYE”
    CAUSES, COMPLICATIONS & TREATMENT of a “RED EYE” 8 Most cases of “red eye” seen in general practice are likely to be conjunctivitis or a superficial corneal injury, however, red eye can also indicate a serious eye condition such as acute angle glaucoma, iritis, keratitis or scleritis. Features such as significant pain, photophobia, reduced visual acuity and a unilateral presentation are “red flags” that a sight-threatening condition may be present. In the absence of specialised eye examination equipment, such as a slit lamp, General Practitioners must rely on identifying these key features to know which patients require referral to an Ophthalmologist for further assessment. Is it conjunctivitis or is it something more Iritis is also known as anterior uveitis; posterior uveitis is serious? inflammation of the choroid (choroiditis). Complications include glaucoma, cataract and macular oedema. The most likely cause of a red eye in patients who present to 4. Scleritis is inflammation of the sclera.

Hyphema. Part I. Pathophysiologic Considerations Abstract Hemorrhage in the anterior chamber of the eye, or hyphema, results from a breakdown of the blood-ocular barrier (BOB) and is frequently associated with inflammation of the iris, ciliary body, or retina. Hyphema can also occur by retrograde blood flow into the anterior chamber via the aqueous humor drainage pathways without BOB breakdown. Hyphema attributable to blunt or perforating ocular trauma is more common than that resulting from endogenous causes. When trauma has been eliminated as a possible cause, it is prudent to assume that every animal with hyphema has a serious systemic disease until proven otherwise.

  • Amaurosis Fugax (Transient Monocular Or Binocular Vision Loss)
    Amaurosis fugax (transient monocular or binocular vision loss) Syndee Givre, MD, PhD Gregory P Van Stavern, MD The next version of UpToDate (15.3) will be released in October 2007. INTRODUCTION AND DEFINITIONS — Amaurosis fugax (from the Greek "amaurosis," meaning dark, and the Latin "fugax," meaning fleeting) refers to a transient loss of vision in one or both eyes. Varied use of common terminology may cause some confusion when reading the literature. Some suggest that "amaurosis fugax" implies a vascular cause for the visual loss, but the term continues to be used when describing visual loss from any origin and involving one or both eyes. The term "transient monocular blindness" is also often used but is not ideal, since most patients do not experience complete loss of vision with the episode. "Transient monocular visual loss" (TMVL) and "transient binocular visual loss" (TBVL) are preferred to describe abrupt and temporary loss of vision in one or both eyes, since they carry no connotation regarding etiology. Transient visual loss, either monocular or binocular, reflects a heterogeneous group of disorders, some relatively benign and others with grave neurologic or ophthalmologic implications. The task of the clinician is to use the history and examination to localize the problem to a region in the visual pathways, identify potential etiologies, and, when indicated, perform a focused battery of laboratory tests to confirm or exclude certain causes. Therapeutic interventions and prognostic implications are specific to the underlying cause. This topic discusses transient visual loss. Other ocular and cerebral ischemic syndromes are discussed separately. APPROACH TO TRANSIENT VISUAL LOSS — By definition, patients with transient visual loss almost always present after the episode has resolved; hence, the neurologic and ophthalmologic examination is usually normal.
