Different surgicaI methods on the tear fiIm stabiIity in treating pterygium patients / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

· AlM:To compare the therapeutic effects of different surgical methods in treating pterygium patients and to observe tear film stability. · METHODS: A total of 120 pterygium patients ( 120 eyes) were divided into three groups, each 40 cases (40 eyes).Data including SchirmerⅠtest (SⅠt), tear break-up time ( BUT) , corneal fluorescein staining ( CFS) were recorded preoperatively and postoperatively to evaluate the clinical efficacy of surgery and the effects of tear function changes. ·RESULTS:There were no significant differences in BUT in group A before the operation and one month after operation.Groups B and C showed significant difference before and after operation, but differences were not statistically significant ( all P compared it between groups B and C, there showed no significant difference; Group A showed no significant difference in SⅠt compared with preoperative, SⅠt of groups B and C were significant differences compared with preoperative (P ·CONCLUSlON: Pterygium excision combined with self-corneal limbal stem cell transplantation and Tenon capsule closed is an ideal surgical to reduce the recurrence and improve tear film function to some extent.

Localization of intraocular foreign bodies by the combination of CT ocular axial scan and meridian plane reconstruction / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

AIM: To explore a new compute tomography (CT) for the localization of intraocular foreign bodies (IOFBs).METHODS: After CT ocular horizontal and ocular axial scan,the foreign bodies on the eyeball wall or retinal surface in 26eyes were localized by means of the combination of CT ocular axial scan and meridian plane reconstruction (new method),ocular horizontal scan and ocular axial scan (conventional method Ⅰ) as well as ocular horizontal scan right angle coordination (conventional method Ⅱ) separately. According to the criteria of indirect ophthalmoscope localization and direct observation during operation, the relative accuracies of corresponding points of the foreign bodies on sclera surface along meridian and latitude were measured.RESULTS: In the 26 cases, the mean relative accuracies of corresponding points of foreign bodies on sclera surface along meridian and latitude were 1.53mm、1.64mm (new method), 1.37mm、1.64mm (conventional method Ⅰ) and 2.02mm、2.55mm (conventional method Ⅱ) respectively.There was no statistical difference between the new method and the conventional method Ⅰ, whereas there was statistical difference between the new methods and the conventional method Ⅱ (along meridian: P＜0.05; along latitude:P＜0.01).CONCLUSION: Compared with the conventional methods,the new method is simpler, more visible and more potential in the clinic.
