Abstract

Abstract Introduction & Objectives : Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a common ocular disease that affects millions of people worldwide. Cataract surgery is one of the most performed surgical procedures in the world and is effective to improve visual function and quality of life (QoL) in individuals with cataracts. Both cataract and AMD are conditions that occur in late age. However, the presence of AMD may complicate the postoperative outcomes and QoL of these patients. This review aims to examine the impact of cataract surgery on the QoL of patients with AMD. Methods : A search of the literature was conducted using electronic databases. Studies were included if they evaluated QoL outcomes in patients with AMD who underwent cataract surgery. Results : The results of the review suggest that cataract surgery can improve visual acuity and QoL in patients with AMD. However, the degree of improvement is influenced by the severity of AMD. Patients with mild to moderate AMD tended to have greater improvements in QoL and visual acuity compared to those with advanced AMD. Incidentally, it is still cost effective to perform cataract surgery in patients with advanced AMD. Conclusion : Overall, patients with AMD who underwent cataract surgery experienced improvements in their QoL. Nevertheless, individual characteristics including severity of AMD must be considered to optimize the procedure outcomes. Further research, particularly with longer follow up times, is needed to determine the long-term effects of cataract surgery on QoL in patients with AMD.

Abstract

Abstract Introduction & Objectives : Modern cataract surgery technique entails replacing the crystalline lens with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL). While the standard monofocal IOL implantation with monovision technique has been cost- effective and provided patients with good visual acuity, multifocal IOLs present the prospect of spectacle-free vision despite various adverse outcomes. It remained contentious whether multifocal IOLs were superior to monovision. Our review provide an up-to-date assessment of monovision vs. multifocal IOL implantation's visual acuity and spectacle independence following cataract surgery. Methods : A systematic search was performed in April 2023 on six databases (Medline, SCOPUS, Proquest, EBSCO, Embase, and PubMed). Studies were extracted for the following outcome of interest: monovision, multifocal intraocular lens, spectacle independence, and visual acuity. All studies published up to April 2023 were reviewed. Cochrane risk of bias tool (RoB 2) was used to screen studies for risk of bias where appropriate. A meta-analysis was done to quantify any reported quantitative data. Results : Ten studies were identified. Pooling analysis for uncorrected binocular distance visual acuity and binocular uncorrected near visual acuity showed no difference between monovision vs. multifocal IOL (SMD 0,31; 95% CI -0,21 to 0,82 and SMD 0,41; 95% CI -0,58 to 1,40, respectively). Spectacle independence showed monovision was inferior to multifocal IOL (OR 0,22; 95% CI 0,08 to 0,61; heterogeneity I2=75%). Conclusion : Current evidence showed that multifocal IOL had comparable visual acuity to monovision with slightly higher likelihood of being spectacle-free. Despite that, monovision can be an efficacious and affordable option to be implemented in countries with high cataract burden.

Abstract

Abstract Introduction & Objectives : Immediate Bilateral Sequential Cataract Surgery (IBSCS) are still controversial topic in Ophthalmology. This paper aims to report the outcome and the efficacy of Immediate Bilateral Sequential Cataract Surgery in writer’s experience. Methods : This paper collects datas from 150 patients that underwent IBSCS. The procedure was done if patient have one or more from these criteria: live far away from hospital, difficult to mobilize to hospital, extreme urgency to return to work as fast as possible (daily paid worker), and if general anesthesia was used. The exclusion criterias were if there was intraoperative complication during the 1st eye, any posterior segment abnormality, and in complicated cataract cases (bad cornea, glaucoma eyes, small pupil eye, zonular loss / weakness, post uveitic eye). During intraoperative, after the 1st eye was finished all instruments and consumable was changed before proceed to the second eye. Results : From 150 patients, there were 0 (zero) case of endophthalmitis. At 7th days post op results all patients achieve normal range pressures, quiet anterior chamber, and good visual acuity improvement. Conclusion : Immediate Bilateral Sequential Cataract Surgery is not less safe than traditional delayed sequential cataract surgery. IBSCS definitely should be considered when encountered with specific patients and specific needs.

Abstract

Abstract Introduction & Objectives : Cataracts are the most common cases that cause blindness globally, where the lense was haze and characterized by decreased visual acuity and is reversible if optimal treatment is given. Examination before surgery is very important for outcome, where keratometry is one of the examinations before the surgery. Small incision cataract surgery (SICS) is one of cataract surgery technique, where a chevron incision is used in the superior or temporal regions. This study aims to determine which location is the best for an incision based on the results of keratometry. Methods : This research is an analytical observational study, bidirectional (prospective-retrospective) with a cohort study approach conducted at the eye polyclinic of Sanglah Hospital and Surya Husadha Hospital, Denpasar. The study sample consisted of 46 eyes which were divided into two groups, 23 superior and 23 temporal incision, then the results were compared between groups. Results : The results showed that the oldest age was the temporal incision group, which was 66.78±7.11. In the keratometry measurements, it was found that there were differences between the two groups, where the temporal incision resulted in smaller keratometric changes (p=<0.001). After analyzing the covariates, the temporal incision group still had smaller keratometry changes (p=<0.001) with astigmatism as an influential confounding factor. Meanwhile, post-op visual acuity was found in the temporal incision group which was better than the superior incision after analysis with covariates (p=0.002). Conclusion : This study showed that the temporal incision group gave lower keratometry results and better post- op visual acuity than the superior incision group.

Abstract

Abstract Introduction & Objectives : To compare the endothelial cell loss after phacoemulsification surgery in patients with DM and non- DM patients Methods : This was a prospective study conducted at Kariadi Hospital, Semarang, Indonesia. A total of 20 eyes of 20 patients (10 DM and 10 non-DM) who underwent phacoemulsification surgery were included in this study. The central corneal thickness (CCT), endothelial cell density (ECD), coefficient of variation (CV), and hexagonality (HEX) were measured preoperatively and on day-7 postoperatively. The percentage of endothelial cell loss (%ECL) was calculated and compared between the two groups. Results : The mean pre-operative and post-operative CCT was similar in both groups (DM =546.6±44.26μm, non-DM=516.7±42.2μm, p=0.949 ;DM=562.8±46.1μm, non-DM=533.7±46.6μm, p=0.997). The mean percentage of endothelial cell loss was slightly higher in the DM group compared to the non- DM group but not significant (6.66±2.36% vs. 2.31±1.72%, p=0.566). There were no significant differences between the CV and HEX on pre-operative and day-7 after surgery Conclusion : Patients with DM have a slightly higher percentage of endothelial cell loss after phacoemulsification surgery compared to non-DM patients. The mean CCT, CV and HEX pre-operation and day-7 were quite similar in both groups. These findings suggest that patients with DM may require more careful monitoring and follow-up after phacoemulsification surgery.

Abstract

Abstract Introduction & Objectives : Unresolved cataract primarily has caused patients to have disturbance in carrying out daily activities, thus lowering their quality of life (QoL). We aim to use the Visual Function Index-14 (VF-14) questionnaire, one of the most frequently used tools, to discover the extent of daily activities disturbance in patients with cataract. Methods : In this observational study, we conducted eye screening to 47 subjects in Jonggol subdistrict, Bogor, Indonesia. Patients were asked several questions based on the translated VF-14 questionnaire into Bahasa and also tested to find out their best-corrected visual acuities. Lens examination was carried on using handheld slit lamp. Results : Out of all 47 subjects, 34 (72,3%) patients had cataract that was marked by lens opacities in either one or both eyes. According to distant vision impairment categories by International Classification of Diseases 11, 8,8% of cataract patients had normal vision from the better eye, 20,6% had mild, 64,7% had moderate, 0% had severe impairment, and 5,9% had blindness. From the assessment using VF-14 translated questionnaire, 14,7% subjects had no disruption in doing daily activities, 82,3% had disruption, and 2,9% could not do the mentioned activities at all. From the Spearman correlation test, there was a significant association with moderate correlation between the degree of vision impairment and QoL (p = 0.006, rs = 0.459). Conclusion : The majority of cataract patients in Jonggol subdistrict had moderate vision impairment and had disruption in doing daily activities, therefore lowering their QoL.

Abstract

Abstract Introduction & Objectives : The risk of PCR in patients with diabetes and its sequential complication including diabetic retinopathy and Intravitreal Injection (IVI) was still under debate. This study was aimed to summarize the risk of diabetes, diabetic retinopathy, and intravitreal injection towards PCR events during phacoemulsification cataract surgery. Methods : A systematic literature search was performed up to March 2023 from the last 10 years publications using Medline and Cochrane library databases. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of diabetes, diabetic retinopathy, and IVI with PCR events were calculated using random-effects models. The quality of included studies was appraised using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Results : Six studies about diabetes, six studies about diabetic retinopathy and seven studies about IVI were included in this meta-analysis. The pooled odds ratios of PCR in eyes with diabetes was 1.22 (95% CI: 1.16-1.28) I2 =0.0%, with the diabetic retinopathy patients was 1.23 (95% CI: 1.13-1.33) I2 =64.3%, and with prior IVI was 1.05 (95% CI: 1.03-1.08) I2 =51%. Conclusion : This meta-analysis emphasize that diabetes, diabetic retinopathy, and previous IVI significantly increase the risk of PCR on future phacoemulsification surgery. Further studies are needed to elucidate the underlying mechanism.

Abstract

Abstract Introduction & Objectives : Uncorrected myopia is the leading cause of visual impairment globally. It can be corrected by refractive surgeries, such as Small Incision Lenticule Extraction (SMILE) and Femtosecond Laser- Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis (FS-LASIK). SMILE technique is less-invasive than FS-LASIK, characterized by all-in-one femtosecond laser and flapless procedure. Correction of low-moderate myopia requires a special concern because even slight decreased in visual quality may be noticed by the patients and affect their satisfaction. The purpose of this study to compare the refractive outcomes after SMILE and FS-LASIK in low-moderate myopia patients. Methods : This is a prospective analytical observational study that was conducted in a tertiary hospital in Indonesia. Four refractive outcome parameters (predictability, efficacy, safety, and stability) were assessed at 1 day, 1 week, and 1 month postoperatively. Results : SMILE was performed on 22 eyes with spherical equivalent (SE) -3.60±1.07 D and FS-LASIK on 20 eyes with SE -2.91±1.53 D. At 1 month, the predictability as the proportion of eyes within SE ±0.50 D were 95.5% in SMILE and 80% in FS-LASIK (p=0.174), the efficacy as the proportion of eyes achieving uncorrected distant visual acuity (UDVA) ≥20/20 were 63.6% in SMILE and 35% in FS- LASIK (p= 0.064), the stability as the proportion of eyes experiencing SE change >0.50 D were 4.5% in SMILE and 5% in FS-LASIK (p=1.000). No eyes from both groups had corrected distant visual acuity (CDVA) loss of ≥2 lines (p=1.000). Conclusion : SMILE and FS-LASIK were both predictable, effective, safe, and stable for low-moderate myopia patients.

Abstract

Abstract Introduction & Objectives : Limbal Relaxing Incisions (LRI) is a surgical technique used to correct astigmatism during cataract surgery. This technique used to reduce the steepness of the corneal curvature in a particular meridian. LRI can be performed alone or in combination with phacoemulsification. Methods : This prospective study aimed to investigate the effect of Limbal Relaxing Incisions (LRI) on corneal astigmatism in patients who underwent phacoemulsification cataract surgery. Five patients were included in this study, and preoperative and 1-week postoperative keratometry values (K1 and K2) were measured using the IOL Master. Paired t-test analysis was used to compare the changes in K1 and K2 values before and after LRI Results : Five eyes of Five patients with the mean age 39.8 years (range : 22 to 76 years) and corneal astigmatism 3.12 D (range : 2.25 to 4.66 D) were underwent LRI and cataract surgery. The mean preoperative K1 and K2 values were 42.12 D and 46.44 D, respectively, while the mean 1-week postoperative K1 and K2 values were 42.60 D and 45.80 D, respectively. Paired t-test analysis showed a statistically significant decrease in K2 values (p = 0.025) but no significant change in K1 values (p = 0.329). Conclusion : This study showed there were no significant difference between pre and postoperative of K1 and showed a significant decrease in K2 on IOL Master examination. The wide age range of the included patients, may have influenced the effectiveness of LRI in reducing astigmatism. Further study with more subject are required.

Abstract

Abstract Introduction & Objectives : This research is aimed to evaluate the effect of transglutaminase-induced corneal collagen crosslinking (CXL) on central corneal thickness (CCT) and keratocyte cell density in vivo. Methods : Twenty-eight white New Zealand rabbits were divided into four groups: the transglutaminase- induced CXL group, the epithelial-off CXL group, the transepithelial CXL group, and the control group. The ocular surface was treated with a 1 U/mL microbial transglutaminase solution, and both the epithelial-off and transepithelial groups were exposed to clinical ultraviolet A-riboflavin (UVA/RF). The efficacy of each group was evaluated on the 14th day after the procedures. Central corneal thickness was evaluated with Corneal Visualization Scheimpflug Technology (Corvis ST) and keratocyte cell density wad evaluated with histopathology examination. Results : Transglutaminase-induced CXL group exhibited the highest mean biomechanical CCT (370.14 ± 38.85) in comparison to the UVA/RF epithelial-off group (368.00 ± 25.48), the UVA/RF transepithelial group (369.86 ± 23.43), and the control group (365.14 ± 28.74). Still, there was no significant differences in both biomechanical CCT (p=0.990). Transglutaminase-induced CXL group had the highest mean of keratocyte cell density (43.26 ± 10.65) compared to UVA/RF epithelial-off (29.99 ± 4.79), UVA/RF transepithelial group (42.03 ± 6.55), and control group (34.36 ± 6.76). There was a significant difference between the group, with a p-value of 0.008. Conclusion : Transglutaminase shown that it produces favorable results for CCT and keratocyte density after CXL, which are two factors contributing to corneal rigidity. The outcomes are equivalent to riboflavin used as a conventional element in CXL.
