高度近视准分子激光原位角膜磨镶术后屈光回退的相关分析

目的:探讨高度近视准发子激光原位角膜镶术(laser insitu keratomileusis,LASIK)手术后屈光回退与术前各项检查结果间的相关性。方法:将135例(241只眼)近视患者按屈光度数分为A组126只眼(-6.00 D~-9.00 D)和B组115只眼(≥-9.00 D)。记录术前的屈光度数、眼压和角膜厚度,依据预期校正屈光度数计算理论残余角膜厚度,行LASIK手术后记录术后视力、屈光度数,进行统计学分析。术后平均随访时间19.14个月。结果:A组中正常术眼108只眼(85.7%),回退术眼18只眼(14.3%);B组中正常术眼74只眼(64.3%),回退术眼41只眼(35.7%);两组比较差异有非常显著意义(P<0.01)。术后平均视力A组为1.17±0.20,B组为0.99±0.28,两组比较差异有非常显著意义(P<0.01)。两组术后的平均屈光度数比较,差异有非常显著意义(P<0.01)。平均理论残余角膜厚度A组为(452.53±28.47)μm,B组为(439.61±30.11)μm,两者比较,差异有非常显著意义(P<0.01)。屈光回退度数与术前近视屈光度数显著正相关(r=0.35,P<0.001),与理论残余角膜厚度显著负相关(r=0.13,P=0.04),与术前眼压及术前角膜厚度无相关性(r=-0.48,P=0.46;r=-0.39,P=0.55)。结论:LASIK手术术前屈光度数越大,术前计算的理论残余角膜厚度越小,术后越易出现回退。对于-6.0 D~-9.00 D的高度近视患者,LASIK手术的预测性和术后稳定性相对较好;对于≥-9.00 D的超高度近视患者,应结合手术技术和术前计算的理论残余角膜厚度慎重选择进行手术。

准分子激光双面式切削原位角膜磨镶术的研究进展

准分子激光双面式切削原位角膜磨镶术(Both-sided LASIK,BSL)是准分子激光原位角膜磨镶术(laser in situ keratomileusis, LASIK)的改良,BSL将部分激光切削分布在角膜瓣基质面,因而减少了对角膜基质床的切削,最大限度的保留了角膜基质床的剩余厚度,为降低术后角膜膨出提供可能,对屈光度相对偏高和/或角膜相对偏薄的患者,尽量增加手术的安全性,并为LASIK术后屈光回退的增强手术提供了一种新的方法。本文对近年BSL的研究进展作一综述。

近视的药物治疗及手术治疗研究进展

近视是最常见的眼病之一,近年来,由于近视的发病率逐年上升,已成为世界性医学问题,近视眼的治疗也成为研究重点。药物研究和手术治疗是近视的治疗目前的研究热点,并已经取得一定得成果。药物方面,阿托品,托品酰胺,哌仑西平,消旋山莨菪碱对近视的控制作用都有被证实,但由于应用上还有一定的副作用,远期效果也不明确,需要进一步研究。手术方面,近视眼手术主要分为角膜屈光手术和眼内屈光手术。LASIK手术是目前应用最广泛的角膜屈光手术方法,SBK手术,飞秒激光手术等技术也日趋成熟。但是,角膜手术存在着一定的风险,应用范围也较为局限,需要进一步研究。眼内屈光手术主要为有晶体眼的人工晶体植入术(PIOL)和屈光性晶状体置换术,矫正的范围更加大,但是眼内手术并发症较多,也需要进一步研究和改进。

Effect of Cycloplegia on the Refractive Status of Children: The Shandong Children Eye Study

PurposeTo determine the effect of 1% cyclopentolate on the refractive status of children aged 4 to 18 years.MethodsUsing a random cluster sampling in a cross-sectional school-based study design, children with an age of 4–18 years were selected from kindergardens, primary schools, junior and senior high schools in a rural county and a city. Auto-refractometry was performed before and after inducing cycloplegia which was achieved by 1% cyclopentolate eye drops.ResultsOut of 6364 eligible children, data of 5999 (94.3%) children were included in the statistical analysis. Mean age was 10.0±3.3 years (range: 4–18 years). Mean difference between cycloplegic and non-cycloplegic refractive error (DIFF) was 0.78±0.79D (median: 0.50D; range: -1.00D to +10.75D). In univariate analysis, DIFF decreased significantly with older age (P<0.001;correlation coefficient r:-0.24), more hyperopic non-cycloplegic refractive error (P<0.001;r = 0.13) and more hyperopic cycloplegic refractive error (P<0.001;r = 0.49). In multivariate analysis, higher DIFF was associated with higher cycloplegic refractive error (P<0.001; standardized regression coefficient beta:0.50; regression coefficient B: 0.19; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.18, 0.20), followed by lower intraocular pressure (P<0.001; beta: -0.06; B: -0.02; 95%CI: -0.03, -0.01), rural region of habitation (P = 0.001; beta: -0.04; B: -0.07; 95%CI: -0.11, -0.03), and, to a minor degree, with age (P = 0.006; beta: 0.04; B: 0.009; 95%CI: 0.003, 0.016). 66.4% of all eyes with non-cycloplegic myopia (≤-0.50D) remained myopic after cycloplegia while the remaining 33.6% of eyes became emmetropic (18.0%) or hyperopic (15.7%) under cycloplegia. Prevalence of emmetropia decreased from 37.5% before cycloplegia to 19.8% after cycloplegia while the remaining eyes became hyperopic under cycloplegia.ConclusionsThe error committed by using non-cycloplegic versus cycloplegic refractometry in children with mid to dark-brown iris color decreased with older age, and in parallel manner, with more myopic cycloplegic refractive error. Non-cycloplegic refractometric measures lead to a misclassification of refractive error in a significant proportion of children.

目的:分析同轴微切口超声乳化白内障手术对角膜内皮细胞的影响。方法:回顾性分析2015年5月至2016年4月在本院进行治疗的86例白内障患者,以经微切口治疗的43例患者视为观察组,经常规切口治疗的43例患者视为对照组。比较两组患者治疗前、治疗后3天、7天、1个月、3个月的中央角膜厚度、变异系数、六角形细胞比例、角膜内皮细胞密度。结果:治疗前,两组患者中央角膜厚度、变异系数、六角形细胞比例、角膜内皮细胞密度比较差异均无统计学意义(P0.05),治疗后3天、7天、1个月、3个月,两组患者中央角膜厚度、变异系数、六角形细胞比例、角膜内皮细胞密度较治疗前显著增加(P0.05),但两组患者之间中央角膜厚度、变异系数、六角形细胞比例、角膜内皮细胞密度比较差异均无统计学意义(P0.05)。结论:与常规切口治疗白内障相比,微切口治疗白内障对角膜内皮细胞的影响相当,但其能进一步缩小患者手术切口,更有利于患者术后的恢复。     

角膜生物力学的测量及临床应用进展

摘要：角膜是重要的屈光间质,约占眼光学系统总屈光力的70％;因其特殊的生理结构,可表现出复杂的生物力学性质。随着近年来科学技术的进步,用于测量角膜生物力学的方法也在不断更新,获得的生物力学参数也更加精确。越来越多的国内外研究团队将对角膜生物力学的研究同临床相结合,发现当角膜形态发生变化时,其生物力学参数也会发生相应的改变。因此,可以通过对患者角膜生物力学的测量来判断病变的发展程度,也可以根据所测得的力学参数来进行手术设计,甚至可以初判患者的愈后情况。但在角膜生物力学方面的研究仍缺乏深度,对其与部分临床疾病的联系仍缺乏充分的认知,仍需探讨如何将角膜生物力学检查更好地服务于临床。本文将对角膜生物力学的离体、活体测量方法及其目前在圆锥角膜、青光眼、翼状胬肉、屈光不正及屈光不正的矫正等临床方面的应用研究作一综述。     

Artificial Cornea: Towards a Synthetic Onlay for Correction of Refractive Error

Synthetic onlays that are implanted onto the surface of the cornea have the potential to become an alternative to spectacles and contact lenses for the correction of refractive error. A successful corneal onlay is dependent on development of a biocompatible polymer material that will maintain a healthy cornea after implantation and that will promote growth of corneal epithelial cells over the onlay, and development of a method for attachment of the onlay with minimal surgical invasiveness. The ideal onlay should be made of a material that is highly permeable yet has sufficient surface characteristics to stimulate stable and firm attachment of the corneal epithelium over the onlay. Recent research indicates that collagen I coated polymer materials that mimic the basement membrane of the corneal epithelium promote the most favorable growth of epithelial cells in vivo in comparison to wholly biological or synthetic materials.     

Personalized Pseudophakic Model for Refractive Assessment

Purpose

To test a pseudophakic eye model that allows for intraocular lens power (IOL) calculation, both in normal eyes and in extreme conditions, such as post-LASIK.

Methods

Participants: The model’s efficacy was tested in 54 participants (104 eyes) who underwent LASIK and were assessed before and after surgery, thus allowing to test the same method in the same eye after only changing corneal topography.

Modelling

The Liou-Brennan eye model was used as a starting point, and biometric values were replaced by individual measurements. Detailed corneal surface data were obtained from topography (Orbscan®) and a grid of elevation values was used to define corneal surfaces in an optical ray-tracing software (Zemax®). To determine IOL power, optimization criteria based on values of the modulation transfer function (MTF) weighted according to contrast sensitivity function (CSF), were applied.

Results

Pre-operative refractive assessment calculated by our eye model correlated very strongly with SRK/T (r = 0.959, p<0.001) with no difference of average values (16.9±2.9 vs 17.1±2.9 D, p>0.05). Comparison of post-operative refractive assessment obtained using our eye model with the average of currently used formulas showed a strong correlation (r = 0.778, p<0.001), with no difference of average values (21.5±1.7 vs 21.8±1.6 D, p>0.05).

Conclusions

Results suggest that personalized pseudophakic eye models and ray-tracing allow for the use of the same methodology, regardless of previous LASIK, independent of population averages and commonly used regression correction factors, which represents a clinical advantage.     

Axial Length/Corneal Radius Ratio: Association with Refractive State and Role on Myopia Detection Combined with Visual Acuity in Chinese Schoolchildren

PurposeTo evaluate the association between the AL/CR ratio and refractive state and explore the effectiveness of this ratio in the assessment of myopia, especially when combined with uncorrected visual acuity in schoolchildren among whom myopia is common.MethodsCross sectional study. 4686 children from 6 primary schools, aged from 6 to 12 years were selected using the clustered-stratified random sampling method. Uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), axial length (AL), corneal radius of curvature (CR), and cycloplegic refraction were tested. Refraction was measured as the spherical equivalent (SE).Results3922 children were included in the analysis. The mean AL/CR ratio was 2.973±0.002, increased with age, and different in gender. The coefficients of correlations of the SE with the AL/CR ratio, AL, and CR were -0.811, -0.657, and 0.095, respectively. Linear regression showed a 10.72 D shift towards myopia with every 1 unit increase in the AL/CR ratio (P<0.001, r² = 66.4%). The estimated SE values obtained by substituting the AL/CR ratio and gender back to the regression model that were within a difference of ±0.50 D in ATE/LER (allowable total error and limits for erroneous results) zones compared to the actual measured values was 51%. The area under the ROC curve of the AL/CR ratio, AL, and UCVA for myopia detection were 0.910, 0.822, and 0.889, respectively, and the differences between each pair were statistically significant (P<0.01). At a specificity of 90%, the sensitivities were 72.98%, 50.50%, 71.99%, and 82.96%, respectively, for the AL/CR ratio, AL, UCVA, and the combination of the AL/CR ratio and UCVA.ConclusionsThe AL/CR ratio was found to explain the total variance in SE better than AL alone. The effectiveness of the AL/CR ratio was statistically significantly better than UCVA for detecting myopia in children, and combining the two produced increased sensitivity without significantly decreasing specificity.     

LASIK for Spherical Refractive Myopia: Effect of Topographic Astigmatism (Ocular Residual Astigmatism,ORA) on Refractive Outcome

Purpose

In eyes with a preoperative plano refractive cylinder, it would appear that there is no rationale for astigmatic treatment. The aim of this retrospective, cross-sectional data analysis was to determine the amount of topographic astigmatism in refractive plano eyes that results in reduced efficacy after myopic laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK).

Methods

This study included 267 eyes from 267 consecutive myopic patients with a refractive plano cylinder. Receiver operating characteristic analysis was used to find the cut-off values of preoperative ocular residual astigmatism (= topographic astigmatism) that can best discriminate between groups of efficacy and safety indices in preoperative plano refractive cylinder eyes.

Results

Preoperative ocular residual astigmatism (ORA) (or topographic astigmatism) of ≤0.9 diopters (D) resulted in an efficacy index of at least 0.8 statistically significantly more frequently than eyes with a preoperative ORA of >0.9 D. Eyes with a high ORA preoperatively also had a high ORA postoperatively. Regression analysis showed that each diopter of preoperative ORA reduced efficacy by 0.07.

Conclusion

A preoperative corneal astigmatism of ≥0.9 D could (partially) be taken into account in the LASIK design, even if the subjective refractive astigmatism is neutral.     

Reversible Femtosecond Laser-Assisted Myopia Correction: A Non-Human Primate Study of Lenticule Re-Implantation after Refractive Lenticule Extraction

LASIK (laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis) is a common laser refractive procedure for myopia and astigmatism, involving permanent removal of anterior corneal stromal tissue by excimer ablation beneath a hinged flap. Correction of refractive error is achieved by the resulting change in the curvature of the cornea and is limited by central corneal thickness, as a thin residual stromal bed may result in biomechanical instability of the cornea. A recently developed alternative to LASIK called Refractive Lenticule Extraction (ReLEx) utilizes solely a femtosecond laser (FSL) to incise an intrastromal refractive lenticule (RL), which results in reshaping the corneal curvature and correcting the myopia and/or astigmatism. As the RL is extracted intact in the ReLEx, we hypothesized that it could be cryopreserved and re-implanted at a later date to restore corneal stromal volume, in the event of keratectasia, making ReLEx a potentially reversible procedure, unlike LASIK. In this study, we re-implanted cryopreserved RLs in a non-human primate model of ReLEx. Mild intrastromal haze, noted during the first 2 weeks after re-implantation, subsided after 8 weeks. Refractive parameters including corneal thickness, anterior curvature and refractive error indices were restored to near pre-operative values after the re-implantation. Immunohistochemistry revealed no myofibroblast formation or abnormal collagen type I expression after 8 weeks, and a significant attenuation of fibronectin and tenascin expression from week 8 to 16 after re-implantation. In addition, keratocyte re-population could be found along the implanted RL interfaces. Our findings suggest that RL cryopreservation and re-implantation after ReLEx appears feasible, suggesting the possibility of potential reversibility of the procedure, and possible future uses of RLs in treating other corneal disorders and refractive errors.     

Association between Childhood Strabismus and Refractive Error in Chinese Preschool Children

PurposeTo investigate the association between concomitant esotropia or concomitant exotropia and refractive error in preschool childrenMethodsA population-based sample of 5831 children aged 3 to 6 years was selected from all kindergartens in a representative county (Yuhuatai District, Nanjing, Jiangsu Province) of Nanjing, China. Clinical examinations including ocular alignment, ocular motility, visual acuity, optometry, stereopsis screening, slit lamp examination and fundus examination were performed by trained ophthalmologists and optometrists. Odd ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were calculated to evaluate the association of refractive error with concomitant esotropia and concomitant exotropia.ResultsIn multivariate logistic regression analysis, concomitant esotropia was associated independently with spherical equivalent anisometropia (OR, 3.15 for 0.50 to <1.00 diopter (D) of anisometropia, and 7.41 for > = 1.00 D of anisometropia) and hyperopia. There was a severity-dependent association of hyperopia with the development of concomitant esotropia, with ORs increasing from 9.3 for 2.00 to <3.00 D of hyperopia, to 180.82 for > = 5.00 D of hyperopia. Concomitant exotropia was associated with astigmatism (OR, 3.56 for 0.50 to 1.00 D of astigmatism, and 1.9 for <0.00 D of astigmatism), myopia (OR, 40.54 for -1.00 to <0.00 D of myopia, and 18.93 for <-1.00 D of myopia), and hyperopia (OR, 67.78 for 1.00 to <2.00 D of hyperopia, 23.13 for 2.00 to <3.00 D of hyperopia, 25.57 for 3.00 to <4.00 D of hyperopia, and 8.36 for 4.00 to <5.00 D of hyperopia).ConclusionsThis study highlights the close associations between refractive error and the prevalence of concomitant esotropia and concomitant exotropia, which should be considered when managing childhood refractive error.
