Abstract
For the data published by Lam et al (2020) on Defocus Incorporated Multiple Segments spectacle lenses, it is shown that, on average, the age-matched physiological axial length growth is achieved in myopic children. Few studies have reported the long-term effect of orthokeratology on the choroid. In the current 2 year prospective study, orthokeratology was found to improve the choroidal thickness and maintain the choroidal contour, but this effect diminished with time. This retrospective study of 156 patients who underwent orbital decompression surgery showed an 8% incidence (12 patients) of new-onset constant diplopia. Preoperative restricted elevation was a risk factor for postoperative diplopia. Preoperative incyclodeviation may become bothersome after orbital decompression. "The study used swept-source optical coherence tomography to measure the choroidal thickness in thyroid associated ophthalmopathy and found significant increases in the active phase. Choroid thickness could be …
期刊介绍:
The British Journal of Ophthalmology (BJO) is an international peer-reviewed journal for ophthalmologists and visual science specialists. BJO publishes clinical investigations, clinical observations, and clinically relevant laboratory investigations related to ophthalmology. It also provides major reviews and also publishes manuscripts covering regional issues in a global context.
