Summary: The centre of the retina (macula) at the back of the eye contains cells that give us our central vision that we use for reading and recognising faces. These cells can be damaged by a disease called wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD), where new abnormal blood vessels grow through the macula and leak fluid. This can affect vision. In some cases, wet AMD can also cause a bleed under the macul...

Summary: This randomized trial will compare treatment strategies for proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). Participants will receive either combination a of faricimab + PRP or vitrectomy + endolaser. The participants will be followed for 3 years. The study will evaluate long-term visual acuity as well as differences in number of injections, procedures, and complications during follow-up (after completi...

Summary: Vitrectomy to remove an epiretinal membrane (ERM) is one of the most common procedures performed by retinal surgeons. Patients who present with significant macular changes on optical coherence tomography (OCT) but relatively good vision are often advised to defer surgery until vision declines to 20/40 or worse. However, it is unknown if delaying surgery, which allows the foveal architecture to rem...

Summary: The aim of our study is to compare between two techniques used for active SOR. The outcomes include efficiency and safety. Patients with silicon filled eyes and prepared for SOR 540 eyes of 505 patients (one eye in 470 patients, and both eyes in 35 patients) were enrolled in the study. All eyes underwent SOR using 23-Gauge PPV. The eyes were classified according to the surgical technique used for ...

Summary: This prospective interventional study evaluates the anatomical and functional outcomes of autologous Tenon's capsule grafting in patients with refractory full-thickness macular holes. Eligible patients include those with chronic large macular holes (\>400 µm) or persistent holes following prior pars plana vitrectomy with internal limiting membrane peeling and gas tamponade. Anatomical closure will...

Summary: This study will examine the safety and efficacy NPI-002 intravitreal implants post vitrectomy.

Summary: DMEK (Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty) is a surgical technique used to treat primary or secondary corneal endothelial decompensation. At the Rothschild Foundation, as in many Western referral centers, DMEK is currently the surgical technique of choice for the treatment of primary or secondary corneal endothelial decompensation. Technically challenging, it is a relatively tedious surgery...

Summary: Sutureless technique for repositioning and scleral fixation of the capsular bag-intraocular lens complex with permanent use of iris retractors

Summary: Full-thickness macular hole (MH) is a common sight threatening macular condition with a prevalence of 3.3 per 1000 individuals. Prompt surgical repair of MH is imperative in preventing irreversible vision loss from MH as the majority of patients would experience progressive loss of central vision, often resulting in visual acuity (VA) of 20/200 or worse and the spontaneous closure rate is less tha...

Summary: In this pilot study, the feasibility of the Oxford Nanopore MinION to identify pathogens from vitrectomy samples in eyes with endophthalmitis shall be assessed. The MinION is a low cost commercially available device for DNA/ RNA analysis that, in studies, has been used for pathogen determination in various infectious diseases as well as for the genetic characterization of hematologic tumors.

Summary: This prospective interventional study evaluates the efficacy and safety of direct intra-arterial microneedle injection combined with pars plana vitrectomy for acute retinal artery occlusion (including central retinal artery occlusion \[CRAO\] and branch retinal artery occlusion \[BRAO\] involving the macula or causing severe visual loss). The primary endpoint is best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA,...

Summary: Idiopathic epiretinal membrane (ERM) is an age-related degenerative retinal condition. One of the primary treatment approaches is vitrectomy combined with epiretinal membrane peeling. However, whether to concurrently perform internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling remains clinically controversial. Therefore, this study aims to compare the efficacy and safety of performing versus omitting ILM peel...
