    Altered retinoid metabolism gene expression in chronic Stevens-Johnson’s syndrome (see page 1015)

    Altered vitamin A metabolism in chronic ocular sequelae of SJS.

    Photophobia and sensations of dryness in migraine patients occur independent of baseline tear volume and improve following botulinum toxin A injections (see page 1024)

    The authors report that, in migraine patients, photophobia and dry eye symptoms are not a direct consequence of reduced tear volume. Both symptoms improve following botulinum toxin A injections.

    Reappraisal of the suitability of corneas from bacteremic donors for use in corneal transplants (see page 1030)

    With proper donor disinfection, corneas donated from bacteremic donors presented the same quality for transplant use as corneas donated from nonbacteremic donors.

    Longitudinal changes in corneal leucocyte density in vivo following transplantation (see page 1035)

    In vivo measurement of intracorneal leucocyte density is associated with corneal diagnosis, vascularisation, steroid use and interval post-corneal transplantation. Leucocyte density measurement is potentially useful in identifying patients who are at risk of graft rejection

    Outcomes of cataract surgery performed by non-physician cataract surgeons in remote north Cameroon (see page 1042)

    The authors report reasonable visual outcomes when non-physician cataract surgeons performed cataract surgery in remote North Cameroon

    Lens nuclear opacity quantitation with long-range swept-source optical coherence tomography: correlation to LOCS III and a Scheimpflug imaging-based grading system (see page 1048)

    Quantification of the lens nuclear density using long-range swept-source optical coherence tomography images correlated well with several commonly-used indices in assessing nuclear cataract. This might serve as an objective and quantitative indicator for evaluating nuclear opacity.

    Incidence and risk of major heart diseases in middle-aged adults with moderate to severe vision impairment: a population-based cohort study (see page 1054)

    Middle-aged women with visual disabilities had a higher incidence of heart failure and ischemic heart disease than the age-, sex-, and comorbidity-matched controls. Visual disability was an independent risk factor for these major heart …
