Materials and Methods: This retrospective case-control study included 57 patients with newly diagnosed RVO whose plasma lipid profile (low-density lipoprotein cholesterol [LDL-C], high-density lipoprotein cholesterol [HDL-C], total cholesterol [TC], and triglycerides [TG]) and insulin resistance were examined. Serum atherogenic indices (LDL-C/HDL-C, TC/HDL-C, TG/HDL-C, and non-HDL-C/HDL-C ratios) and presence of insulin resistance were compared between the patients and 63 healthy subjects. Cut-off values were determined by receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. Results: The mean age of the RVO patients was 63.7±9.4 years. Plasma levels of LDL-C, HDL-C, TC, and TG showed no significant difference between the patient and control groups (p>0.05).

Conclusion: LDL-C/HDL-C, TC/HDL-C, and non-HDL-C/HDL-C ratios were found to be increased in RVO. Compared to the traditional plasma lipid profile, serum atherogenic indices were found to be superior predictors of RVO development. Measurement of HOMA-IR index should be taken into consideration in the evaluation of insulin resistance. High serum atherogenic indexes in RVO patients reveal the need to take precautions against the risk of cardiovascular disease and stroke.","PeriodicalId":23373,"journal":{"name":"Turkish Journal of Ophthalmology","volume":"201 ","pages":"76 - 82"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140779178","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, those polymorphisms have not been analyzed in GD or Graves’ ophthalmopathy (GO) in the Turkish population. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the frequency of FOXP3 polymorphisms in GD with or without ophthalmopathy in a Turkish population. Materials and Methods: The study included 100 patients with GO, 74 patients with GD without ophthalmopathy, and 100 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. In all study participants, rs3761547 (-3499 A/G), rs3761548 (-3279 C/A), and rs3761549 (-2383 C/T) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were detected using the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. The chi-square test was used to evaluate genotype and allele frequencies. Odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were calculated for genotype and allele risks. Results: In the patient group (including GD with or without ophthalmopathy), the rs3761548 AC and AA genotype and rs3761549 CT genotype were significantly more frequent than in the control group (all p<0.05). No genotypic and allelic differences were observed for rs3761547 between the patient and control groups (all p>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between the GO and GD without ophthalmopathy groups concerning the allele and genotype frequencies of all three FOXP3 SNPs (all p>0.05). Conclusion: The AC and AA genotypes of rs3761548 (-3279) and CT genotype of rs3761549 (-2383 C/T) were shown to be possible risk factors for GD development in the Turkish population.

She had active vitritis, and a peripheral retinal vascular mass was noted in the superotemporal periphery. The mass was associated with ERD involving the posterior pole. The patient was managed with systemic and intravitreal steroids, and cyclosporine was subsequently added as a steroid-sparing agent. Because of recurrence of ERD, the patient underwent pars plana vitrectomy, and cryotherapy and laser photocoagulation were applied to the VPT. Two months postoperatively, visual acuity in the LE improved to 6/10. There was marked regression of the VPT and total resolution of the ERD. In conclusion, we report a favorable visual and clinical outcome in a patient with VPT-associated ERD who responded to a combination of medical therapy and surgical intervention.

Materials and Methods: A total of 79 patients undergoing uneventful microincisional cataract surgery with bilateral implantation of one of two types of trifocal IOLs, the Acriva Trinova IOL (VSY) or Acrysof IQ PanOptix IOL (Alcon), were enrolled in this prospective study. Visual and refractive outcomes, contrast sensitivity (CS), and defocus curve were assessed at 3 months after surgery. Patient satisfaction and incidence of photic phenomena were also evaluated. Results: The number of patients/eyes were 48/96 in the Trinova group and 31/62 in the PanOptix group. There were no significant differences between the groups for monocular and binocular corrected/uncorrected distance or intermediate (at 60 cm) and near visual acuities (VA) postoperatively. The Trinova group had statistically significantly better intermediate VA at 80 cm than the PanOptix group (p<0.05). The CS results of both groups were within the normal limits. In the binocular defocus curve of both IOLs, we observed a peak of good VA at 0.0 diopters defocus and a useful wide range for intermediate distances. The incidence of photic phenomena in the Trinova group was lower at postoperative 1 month (p<0.05) but this difference disappeared at 3 months. A total of 47 patients (97.9%) in the Trinova group and 30 patients (96.7%) in the PanOptix group stated that they would recommend the same IOL.

This study compared cycloplegic refractive errors measured by SVS and tabletop autorefractometer to cycloplegic retinoscopy in children. Materials and Methods: Eighty-eight eyes of 44 subjects were examined in the study. Refractive error measurements were obtained under cycloplegia using retinoscopy, SVS, and Nidek ARK-530 tabletop autorefractometer (ARK-530, Nidek, Japan). Spherical and cylindrical values, spherical equivalents (SE), and Jackson cross-cylinder values at axes of 0° (J0) and 45° (J45) were recorded. Correlations between methods were analyzed using intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and Bland-Altman analysis. Results: The mean age was 7 years (range: 6 months-17 years). Sixteen (36%) of the subjects were female and 28 (64%) were male. For SE there was excellent agreement between retinoscopy and SVS (ICC: 0.924) and between retinoscopy and tabletop autorefractometer (ICC: 0.995). While there was a moderate correlation between retinoscopy and SVS for cylindrical values (ICC: 0.686), excellent correlation was detected between retinoscopy and autorefractometer (ICC: 0.966). J0 and J45 crosscylinder power values were not correlated between retinoscopy and SVS (ICC: 0.472) or retinoscopy and tabletop autorefractometer (ICC: 0.442). Retinoscopy was correlated with both SVS and tabletop autorefractometer for all parameters within ±1.96 standard deviations in Bland-Altman analysis. Conclusion: Cycloplegic retinoscopy is the gold standard for refractive error measurement in the pediatric population. However, it requires time and experienced professionals. This study revealed moderate to good agreement between SVS and retinoscopy, with better agreement in spherical errors than cylindrical errors. Although the SVS is intended for screening programs, it may also be useful in the pediatric eye office to estimate spherical refractive error in uncooperative patients.","PeriodicalId":23373,"journal":{"name":"Turkish Journal of Ophthalmology","volume":"128 ","pages":"56 - 62"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140767178","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This case report aimed to describe a drug-induced adverse event in a 34-year-old man who presented with blurred vision and floaters in the right eye and was being treated for intermediate uveitis. The patient had started topical treatment with a diagnosis of uveitis at another center. Best corrected visual acuity at presentation was 0.8 (decimal) in the right eye and 1.0 in the left eye. On examination, the anterior chamber in the right eye was clear, with anterior vitreous cells and mild haze, and snow banking and vitreous opacities in the inferior periphery. Fluorescein angiography (FA) showed hyperfluorescence in the right disc and leakage in the inferior periphery. As the inflammation did not resolve with local treatment, systemic cyclosporine was administered, after which the patient exhibited vomiting and weakness. Cyclosporine was discontinued and adalimumab treatment was started. On examination 5 months later, bilateral vitreous cells and mild vitreous opacity were noted, and FA showed mild leakage in the inferior periphery bilaterally. In addition, a depigmented patchy vitiligo lesion was observed on the chin. Due to the persistence of intraocular inflammation and on the recommendation of the dermatology clinic, adalimumab treatment was continued and topical tacrolimus was started for the lesion. On examination 3 months later, the inflammatory findings had resolved and there was no progression of the vitiligo lesion. The patient’s treatment was continued. Taken together with the previous literature findings, no pathology was found in the patient’s systemic examination, suggesting that this lesion was a side effect of the treatment.

Among the treatment models, contact lenses (CL) have an important place in infancy and early childhood up to the age of 2 years. Although good visual gains were not considered very likely, especially in unilateral aphakia, important steps have been taken in the treatment of pediatric aphakia thanks to the surgical techniques developed over time and the increasing experience with optical correction systems, especially CLs.
