Objective: To evaluate the anatomical and functional outcome of ranibizumab therapy in patients with idiopathic choroidal neovascularization (CNV).  File and Methodology: The group consists of 6 patients. Patients were older 18 years but they were under 50 years of age. The monitoring period lasted 12 months. We confirmed active idiopathic CNV in subfoveal position with fluorescein angiography (FA...

Purpose: Capsular bag distension syndrome is to be seen as a relatively rare complication after cataract surgery. Materials and Methods: We describe our experience of late-onset capsular bag distension syndrome with one case onset 4 years after cataract surgery. Nowadays diagnostic imaging methods were used. The literature was reviewed to summarize the diagnosis, classification, use of diagnostic ...

Purpose: To report late postoperative opacification of a hydrophobic acrylic intraocular lens (IOL) AcryNovaTMPC 610Y as well as the clinical consequences in patients 10 years after uncomplicated cataract surgery. Materials and Methods: Medical records were reviewed of 23 patients (26 eyes) with AcryNovaTMPC 610Y implantated between years 2005 and 2007. Next clinical examination was performed 10 y...

Purpose: To inform about possible use of the automatic retinal oximetry for the retinal oxygen saturation measurement in the eye and systemic diseases. Methods: We performed a literature review dealing with issues of retinal oxygen saturation monitoring by dual non-invasive retinal oximetry Oxymap T1 (Oxymap ehf. Reykjavík, Iceland). Results: We have found two main strains writing our paper on ret...

Pachychoroid disease of retina is a spectrum of diseases manifested by thickening and hyperperfusion of the choroid with changes in the sensory part of the retina. The main unit of this group is central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC). In practice, we often encounter other conditions, which are manifested by thickening of the choroid and changes in the retina, but they cannot be classified as pachy...

Background: Ectropion and entropion are eyelid malpositions associated with many unpleasant symptoms. One of many surgical methods that can correct these problems is called the lateral tarsal strip. In this paper, we evaluate the postoperative results and quality of this technique. We also looked at the complications associated with this surgical method. Methods: The study took place from April 20...

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has been identified as a major promoter of the development of choroidal neovascularization in age-related macular degeneration. The development of choroidal neovascularization can be slowed by preventing the binding of vascular endothelial growth factor to cellular VEGF receptor-2 present on vascular endothelial cells, which represents the major proangioge...

Objective: To evaluate the prevalence of refractive errors among members of the Armed Forces of the Czech Republic, to recommend a safe way of correcting refractive errors with regard to the specific needs of military personnel (especially members of combat units and flying personnel), and to propose a system for solving these errors in order to increase combat effectivity. Methodology: Questionna...

The aim of the thesis is to present the case of a patient in whom bilateral calcification of the hydrophilic intraocular lens (IOL) Lentis M+ LS-313 MF30 (Oculentis) has developed. Due to the negative effect on visual functions, explantation and replacement of the artificial lens was necessary in both eyes. Case Report: An overview of the available literature summarized the diagnostics, current ex...

Purpose: Evaluation of the effectiveness of pneumatic vitreolysis in disrupting vitreomacular traction in our own cohort of patients. Methodology: Prospective follow-up of 21 eyes of 18 patients with focal VMT (adhesion width < 1500 µm) who underwent intravitreal injection of 0.3 ml of 100% perfluoropropane between January 2015 and December 2020. The patients were observed for 90 days. Results:...
