purpose : evaluating the effects of memantine on visual function after scleral buckling for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (rrd) methods : in a double blind prospective randomized clinical trial, 61 patients with clinical diagnosis of less than 4 weeks macula-off rrd who had successful scleral buckle surgery had been selected and divided into two randomized groups. thirty of them received 5 ...

purpose: to evaluate the anatomical and functional outcomes of using heavy silicone oil as an internal tamponade for complicated cases of retinal detachment associated with proliferative vitreoretinopathy involving inferior retinal quadrants methods: 55 eyes from 55 patients with complicated retinal detachments enrolled in this interventional case series study. all eyes underwent standard three...

purpose : to evaluate the efficacy of autologous plasmin in pediatric vitrectomy and to report the anatomic outcomes of autologous plasmin assisted pediatric vitrectomy methods : in an interventional prospective study, thirty-four pediatric patients with vitreoretinal disorders who needed vitrectomy during 2008 to 2010, included in the study. the patients were divided into two groups: the retin...

This study examined whether a higher level of psychological detachment during non-work time is associated with better employee mental health (Hypothesis 1), and examined whether psychological detachment has a curvilinear relation (inverted U-shaped pattern) with work engagement (Hypothesis 2).

PURPOSE To determine the long-term risk of retinal detachment following pediatric cataract surgery and to identify risk factors for retinal detachment. METHODS We included all children (aged 0 to 17 years) who during the time period of 1977 to 2005 underwent pediatric cataract surgery in Denmark, excluding cataract cases caused by trauma, or acquired systemic or acquired ocular pathology, and...

Aim: To determine the frequency of ciliary body or retinal breaks and retinal detachment in eyes with atopic cataract. Methods: The records of 106 eyes (74 patients) with atopic cataract that underwent cataract extraction were reviewed. The frequency of ciliary body or retinal breaks and retinal detachment was classified by their presence preoperatively and postoperatively, and by cataract type...
