    Review Eyelash-Enhancing Products: A Review Bishr Al Dabagh, MD; Julie Woodward, MD Long prominent eyelashes draw attention to the eyes and are considered a sign of beauty. Women strive to achieve ideal lashes through various modalities, including cosmetics, cosmeceuticals, and pharmaceu- ticals. The booming beauty industry has introduced many cosmetic and cosmeceutical products with claims of enhancing eyelash growth; however, many of these products have not been tested for efficacy or safety and are promoted solely with company- and/or consumer-based claims. The only pharmaceu- tical approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for eyelash growth is bimatoprost ophthalmic solution 0.03% (Latisse, Allergan, Inc). In this article, eyelash physiology, causes of genetic and acquired trichomegaly, and pharmaceutical and cosmeceutical products that claim eyelash-enhancing effects are reviewed.

  • Ocular Side Effects of Novel Anti-Cancer Biological Therapies
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Ocular side efects of novel anti‑cancer biological therapies Vicktoria Vishnevskia‑Dai1*, Lihi Rozner1, Raanan Berger2,3, Ziv Jaron1, Sivan Elyashiv1, Gal Markel2,3 & Ofra Zloto1 To examine the ocular side efects of selected biological anti‑cancer therapies and the ocular and systemic prognosis of patients receiving them. We retrospectively reviewed all medical records of patients who received biological anti‑cancer treatment from 1/2012 to 12/2017 and who were treated at our ocular oncology service. The following data was retrieved: primary malignancy, metastasis, type of biological therapy, ocular side efects, ophthalmic treatment, non‑ocular side efects, and ocular and systemic disease prognoses. Twenty‑two patients received biological therapies and reported ocular side efects. Eighteen patients (81.8%) had bilateral ocular side efects, including uveitis (40.9%), dry eye (22.7%), and central serous retinopathy (22.7%). One patient (4.5%) had central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO), and one patient (4.5%) had branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO). At the end of follow‑up, 6 patients (27.27%) had resolution of the ocular disease, 13 patients (59.09%) had stable ocular disease, and 3 patients (13.64%) had progression of the ocular disease. Visual acuity improved signifcantly at the end of follow‑up compared to initial values. Eighteen patients (81.8%) were alive at study closure. Biological therapies can cause a wide range of ocular side efects ranging from dry eye symptoms to severe pathologies that may cause ocular morbidity and vision loss, such as uveitis, CRAO and BRVO. All patients receiving biological treatments should be screened by ophthalmologists before treatment, re‑screened every 4–6 months during treatment, and again at the end of treatment.

Because exome sequencing has rapidly emerged as this gene in several additional trichomegaly families identified an a powerful means to identify genes that cause rare Mendelian additional mutation in FGF5.

  • Sensitive Cilia – Eyelashes in Health and Disease
    FEATURE Sensitive cilia – eyelashes in health and disease BY RACHNA MURTHY AND JONATHAN ROOS In health our eyelashes protect the eyes, but in disease they can disfigure, impair quality of life and threaten vision. In this review the authors discuss aspects of lashes that are relevant to all professionals working near the eyes and how to keep you and your patients safe. ur eyelashes frame the eyes and are a key facial aesthetic: of the protein keratin also containing melanin and an outermost we have evolved to be preoccupied by the periocular area impermeable cuticle of several layers of scale-like cells. They when we meet someone. Eye tracking studies show that are coated with sebum secreted by a gland named after Dr Zeis Oour gaze is primarily focussed on the eyes and periocular (Figure 1). Like all hair, lashes transition through three phases in area when looking at one another [1]. When we look into someone’s their life but with a short anagen growth phase and long resting eyes we feel we can see their soul – but except for pupil size the eye telogen phase (Figure 2). This means that they reach no more than itself does not change – rather it is the surrounding tissues which around 10mm before growth stops. They then shed naturally after a speak to us. few months.
