Objective:
Intravitreal injections (IVI) are the most frequently performed intraocular procedure in Canada. Povidone-iodine (PI) is the current gold standard for antisepsis for IVI and is widely used; chlorhexidine (CH) is a possible alternative antiseptic agent. This study aims to compare rates of endophthalmitis after IVI with 0.05% chlorhexidin...
Since the introduction of artificial intelligence (AI) in 1956 by John McCarthy, the field has propelled medicine, optimized efficiency, and led to technological breakthroughs in clinical care. As an important frontier in healthcare, AI has implications on every subspecialty within medicine. This review highlights the applications of AI in ophthalm...
Purpose
To determine whether pneumatic vitreolysis with intravitreal air is effective for focal vitreomacular traction (VMT).
Methods
We conducted a retrospective consecutive case series of 20 eyes from 19 individuals with focal VMT who underwent pneumatic vitreolysis with intravitreal air (January 2017 to November 2018). We analyzed patients via...
Autograd-based software packages have recently renewed interest in image registration using homography and other geometric models by gradient descent and optimization, e.g., AirLab and DRMIME. In this work, we emphasize on using complex matrix exponential (CME) over real matrix exponential to compute transformation matrices. CME is theoretically mo...
In this work, we present a novel unsupervised image registration algorithm. It is differentiable end-to-end and can be used for both multi-modal and mono-modal registration. This is done using mutual information (MI) as a metric. The novelty here is that rather than using traditional ways of approximating MI, we use a neural estimator called MINE a...
Purpose
This report describes and provides a differential diagnosis for a patient with unusual bilateral retinal pigmented lesions.
Methods
A 40-year-old woman was found to have multiple flat, gray lesions scattered across her fundi, becoming larger and more confluent toward the periphery. There were small drusenlike deposits in her foveae. The hy...
Purpose
The purpose of this article is to describe the characteristics and outcomes of retinal detachment (RD) repair associated with atopic dermatitis (AD).
Methods
A single-center, retrospective review of all patients with RD associated with AD between January 2007 and December 2017 was conducted.
Results
Ten patients (13 eyes) were included wi...
Deep learning is an emerging technology with numerous potential applications in Ophthalmology. Deep learning tools have been applied to different diagnostic modalities including digital photographs, optical coherence tomography, and visual fields. These tools have demonstrated utility in assessment of various disease processes including cataracts,...
Background/purpose:
To present a case of a patient with simultaneous bilateral retinal detachments treated successfully with bilateral pneumatic retinopexy.
Study design:
Case report.
Results:
This is a case of an otherwise healthy 49-year-old woman with no remarkable ocular history that presented with simultaneous phakic superior bilateral rh...
