Corneal blindness is the third leading cause of blindness worldwide.1 Corneal transplantation remains the only method of restoring vision in eyes with end-stage corneal decompensation and is the most frequently performed type of transplant worldwide.2 Due to the immunological and lymphogenic privilege of the avascular cornea, keratoplasty is the most successful tissue transplantation procedure…
Background To delineate the epidemiological landscape of glaucoma using a population-based sample representative of Bangladesh. Methods Using multistage stratified cluster random sampling, households were selected…
Background Pterygium is a common ocular surface disorder that requires surgical intervention for treatment. Conjunctival autografts are preferred over simple excision due to lower recurrence…
Objective Preclinical validation study to assess the feasibility and accuracy of electromagnetic image-guided systems (EM-IGS) in orbital surgery using high-fidelity physical orbital anatomy simulators. Methods…
Purpose Effective visual perceptual processing is one of the many components of surgical competence. Human face identification is most efficient when viewed upright. However, it…
