Aim: To evaluate our own results of the use of hybrid monovision technique, in patients after bilateral cataract surgery, where in the dominant eye the monofocal intraocular lens is implanted and in the non-dominant eye the multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) is implanted. Material and methods: Prospective follow-up of group of 33 patients with bilateral cataract surgery and induced hybrid monovisio...

The document was compiled as a consensual recommended procedure, without the use of the rigorous analytical methods (Delphi method, formal group technique or method RAND/ UCLA/), on which the methodology is nevertheless based. A team of refractive surgeons was chosen by the board of directors of the Czech Society of Refractive and Cataract Surgery (CSRCS) in such a manner as to represent workers f...

Purpose: To compare the influence of the LASIK and ReLEx SMILE refractive method on tear osmolarity Methods: Prospective non-randomized comparative study. We evaluated the results in two groups of patients who underwent binocular refractive surgery to remove myopia and possibly astigmatism in the eye clinic of Horní Počernice. In each group were 15 patients (30 eyes), patients of one group undergo...

The aim of the study: Retrospective evaluation of the first 12 months treatment of macular edema in BRVO with ranibizumab based on anatomical and functional parameters. Methods: 54 eyes with macular edema complicating BRVO were included in the study, with an average initial best corrected visual acuity 4/16 ETDRS charts, an average central retinal thickness 512.3 μm, and in average 4 months till t...

Pupose: To experimentally compare the visual acuity and the subjective perception of different types of multifocal intraocular lenses (IOL) using a VirtIOL device/simulator in a group of volunteers with artephakia. Material and methods: This was an experimental study involving a total of 20 volunteers with artephakia (35 eyes). Each volunteer rated 5 types of IOLs, 4 presbyopia-correcting IOLs - W...

Purpose: Purpose of this article is to present a case report of a patient with uveal effusion syndrome who underwent deep posterior sclerotomy. Case report: A 73-year-old patient with unilateral decrease in the best corrected visual acuity, ablation of choroid and secondary retinal detachment in the right eye was admitted to our clinic for examination in November 2017. At the first examination, th...

Some of the modifications of posterior lamellar keratoplasty is at the present considered by most of the corneal surgeons as method of choice in case of patient’s corneal endothelium damage. However, this surgical technique undergoes in the last 20 years relatively rapid development. Even in the current time, there exist side by side and are used different types and modifications of this sort of t...

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-contact and non-invasive imaging and diagnostic method, that allows the imaging of ocular tissues on transverse sections in extremely high quality of micrometer resolution. The physical principle of OCT is analogous to ultrasound, but it uses infrared radiation instead of acoustic waves. By using a low coherent radiation source, it is possible to achieve...

Purpose: To evaluate the results of posterior lamellar keratoplasties (DMEK and PDEK) in phakic eyes. Material and methods: Retrospective analysis of surgeries performed in our department between June 2016 and December 2019. The main focus was put on postoperative visual acuity, corneal endothelial cell density and possible peroperative and postoperative complications including cataract formation....

In this paper, the authors present a case report of a 46–year–old patient with decompensated pigmentary glaucoma and anterior uveitis after unilateral implantation of a BrightOcular artificial cosmetic iris (Stellar Devices, New York, USA). Postoperatively, there was a decrease of endothelial cells (ECD) down to 1216 cells/mm2, a uveal reaction in the anterior chamber and a significant decompensat...

Aims: The aim of the work was to find out the current subjective preferences of Czech cataract surgeons in terms of individual procedures, techniques and materials used during cataract surgery. Material and methods: This study was conducted in the form of a questionnaire (online, a total of 44 questions). The survey respondents were members of the Czech Society of Refractive and Cataract Surgery. ...

Introduction: Topamax (topiramate) is a drug used in the treatment of epilepsy or migraine. Its use may rarely be associated with the occurrence of secondary angle-closure glaucoma due to supraciliary effusion. Although the ocular finding resembles primary angle-closure glaucoma, bilateral infliction should always raise the suspicion that it is drug-induced glaucoma. Case report: The authors prese...

Aim: To summarize the history and current trends in the use of scleral grafts in ophthalmology. Materials and methods: We conducted a review of the literature through the MEDLINE and Cochrane Library databases. The search terms were "sclera", "graft", and "surgery". The search resulted in 1596 articles, of which we evaluated 192 as relevant. The relevant articles were sorted chronologically and ac...
