The Group ...

Objective: A description of the development of a clinical ocular finding of 23 patients (35 eyes) with steroid-induced posterior subcapsular cataract of different source, focusing on its character and mechanism of origin. Methods: The medical records of 23 patients, 14 women, 9 men, median age 44.5 years (median 44 years, interval 29 - 52 years) were evaluated retrospectively and had undergone sur...

Purpose: Describe the clinical finding and course of treatment in patients with a sudden decrease in visual function due to an acute occlusion of the arteria centralis retinae. Patients were primarily indicated for selective angiography with thrombolysis of the ophthalmic artery. Materials and methods: Medical documentation of two patients with acute central retinal artery occlusion with a time du...

Aim: To report the clinical results of chelation of band keratopathy in long-term follow-up. Material and methods: The long-term results of 5 patients (5 eyes) with symptomatic band keratopathy with a follow-up period of at least 6 months, in whom 2% EDTA was chelated on the affected eye in the study period from April 2018 to March 2021, were retrospectively evaluated. The follow-up period was 9-3...
