myopia/triglyceride

UNASSIGNED To investigate the relationship between age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and refractive error and axial length, as well as the socio-demographic characteristics and biochemical variables that may affect this relationship. UNASSIGNED A total of 196 eyes of 98 patients over 50 years

The final routine medical examinations (RME) of 526 full-time firefighters, all male, retiring from Strathclyde Fire Brigade in the decade beginning 1 January 1985 were studied to determine differences between the results of the 328 taking ill-health retirement (IHR) and the 198 completing maximum

Objective: Determine relationship between refractive error and diabetic retinopathy (DR). Design: Clinical trial SUBJECTS: Myopia is a non-modifiable risk factor reportedly

OBJECTIVE Cataract risk factors data will provide epidemic evidence for cataract prevention. BACKGROUND This study aimed to study the risk factors for age-related cataract in a Chinese adult population. METHODS This is a population-based, cross-sectional study. METHODS A total of 10 234 eligible

A multihospital study allowed us to follow a total of 62 serologically proven cases of Nephropathia epidemica (NE) in the Belgian region between Sambre and Meuse during the 1992-1993 period. The clinical picture consisted of sudden high fever (100% of the cases), headache (71%), abdominal or lumbar

Intrastromal corneal ring segments (ICRS(R), Intacs(R)) are corneal inlays made of PMMA with an arc length of 150 degrees for the correction of low to moderate myopia. This additive and potentially reversible method has recently been developed to clinical usefulness during the last few years.

BACKGROUND Optical coherence tomography (OCT) allows quantitative image analysis of retinal tissue in vivo. Peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (pRNFL) thickness is widely used for evaluation of retinal nerve fiber rarefaction in several optic neuropathies. This study evaluates associations of
