Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to study the patient's awareness of the proper method of eye drop (ED) opening and usage among patients attending the outpatient and specialty clinics of a tertiary eye care center in South India. Methods: A questionnaire-based cross-sectional survey was conducted among 514 patients attending outpatient departments of general units and specialty clinics by seven study coordinators. The questionnaire consists of 10 simple questions to assess the awareness of these patients on ED opening, usage methods, and from whom they received the information. Immediately, at the end of the questionnaire, all the patients participating in the survey were properly instructed on the right method of ED usage. In addition, they were inquired about the right mode of communication on the topic of interest. Results: Total number of participants included was 514. Mean age was (standard deviation) 50.58 (20.8) years; only 3.3% (17) were not informed about the proper usage of ED method by any of the staff or the counselors or doctors from the hospital, and 96.7% (497) were counseled for the proper method of ED usage. Among them, the information was properly explained to 82.7% (412) of the respondents by the counselors in each department; only 7.4% (37) were explained by the doctors. Most of them, 80.2% (412), preferred direct oral conversation methods of counseling on ED usage, 9.9% (51) preferred through posters, 7% (36) through video displays, and only 9% (10) through public address systems. Conclusion: A separate, precise ED counseling system is necessary for delivering proper instructions on ED usage and opening. The patient's education with eye-to-eye contact from the counselors is the patient's preferred route of obtaining information on ED usage.

Abstract

This study aimed to report the graft sequelae of retained host Descemet's membrane (DM) following Penetrating Keratoplasty (PKP). A 75-year-old male diagnosed with retained host DM with Anterior segment optical coherence tomography (ASOCT). Nd:YAG membranotomy resulted in graft failure. Later, DM stripping endothelial keratoplasty with removal of the host DM was done. Review of literature was done to discuss the best treatment modality.

Abstract

Exfoliation syndrome (XFS) is the most common recognizable cause of open-angle glaucoma worldwide. To better understand the etiology of XFS, we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 1,484 cases and 1,188 controls from Japan and followed up the most significant findings in a further 6,901 cases and 20,727 controls from 17 countries across 6 continents. We discovered a genome-wide significant association between a new locus (CACNA1A rs4926244) and increased susceptibility to XFS (odds ratio (OR) = 1.16, P = 3.36 × 10(-11)). Although we also confirmed overwhelming association at the LOXL1 locus, the key SNP marker (LOXL1 rs4886776) demonstrated allelic reversal depending on the ancestry group (Japanese: OR(A allele) = 9.87, P = 2.13 × 10(-217); non-Japanese: OR(A allele) = 0.49, P = 2.35 × 10(-31)). Our findings represent the first genetic locus outside of LOXL1 surpassing genome-wide significance for XFS and provide insight into the biology and pathogenesis of the disease.
