    Diagnostic ability of vessel density of the optic nerve head and macula versus structural parameters with optical coherence tomography in pseudoexfoliative glaucoma
    (Archivos de la Sociedad Española de Oftalmología (English Edition), 2023) Guemes Villahoz, Noemí; Burgos Blasco, B.; Morales-Fernández, L.; Perez García, P.; García Feijoo, Julián; Martínez De La Casa Fernández-Borrella, José María
    Purpose: To evaluate the diagnostic ability of the vessel density (VD) of the optic nerve head (ONH) and the macula on optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography and the retinal nerve layer thickness (RNFL) thickness and the macular ganglion cell complex (GCC) thickness on OCT in patients with pseudoexfoliative glaucoma (PXG). Methods: Cross-sectional study including PXG patients and healthy controls. Demographic and clinical data were noted for all participants. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography (OCTA) images of the ONH and macular area were obtained with the RS-3000 Advance OCT (Nidek Co., Gamagori, Japan). The RNFL and GCC thickness of different sectors was provided by the software. Macular VD of the superficial capillary plexus (SCP) and ONH VD of the radial peripapillary capillary plexus (RPCP) were registered. Groups were compared and area under the receiver operating characteristic (AUROC) curves were used to determine the power of discrimination of each parameter. Results: RNFL and GCC thickness and ONH and macular VD were significantly lower in PXG patients compared with healthy controls (all, p < 0.05). The best discrimination parameter was the average RNFL thickness (AUROC: 0.928). ONH VD AUROC was better than that of macular VD (AUROC: 0.897 and 0.780, respectively). ONH VD AUROC was comparable to RNFL thickness (p < 0.001). Conclusions: The diagnostic ability of ONH vessel density in PXG appears comparable to that of the structural parameters, RNFL and GCC thickness, obtained with OCT, and may be a valuable tool in clinical practice.

    Additional Guidance on the Use of the PRESERFLO™ MicroShunt in the Treatment of Glaucoma: Insights from a Second Delphi Consensus Panel
    (Ophthalmology and Therapy, 2024) Khawaja, Anthony P.; Abegão Pinto, Luís; Stalmans, Ingeborg; Aptel, Florent; Barkander, Anna; Barton, Keith; Beckers, Henny; Iliev, Milko; Klink, Thomas; Marchini, Giorgio; Martínez De La Casa Fernández-Borrella, José María; Pillunat, Karin R; Simonsen, Jan H; Vass, Clemens
    Introduction: The PRESERFLO™ MicroShunt (PMS) has been proven to significantly lower intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with glaucoma and has been available for use since 2019. With increasing published evidence and growing experience of glaucoma surgeons, the aim of this modified Delphi panel was to build on the findings of a previous Delphi panel conducted in 2021 and provide further guidance on the role of the PMS to treat patients with glaucoma in Europe. Methods: Thirteen European glaucoma surgeons experienced in the PMS procedure participated in a 3-round modified Delphi panel. A targeted literature review and expert steering committee guided Round 1 questionnaire development. Consensus was pre-defined at a threshold of ≥ 70% of panellists selecting 'strongly agree'/'agree' or 'strongly disagree'/'disagree' for 6-point Likert scale questions or ≥ 70% selecting the same option for multiple or single-choice questions. Questions not reaching consensus were restated/revised for the next round, following guidance from free-text responses/scoping questions. Results: In total, 28% (n = 9/32), 52% (n = 16/31) and 91% (n = 10/11) of statements reached consensus in Rounds 1, 2 and 3, respectively. There was agreement that the PMS may be used in patients with pigmentary, post-trauma or post-vitrectomy glaucoma and for patients with uveitic glaucoma without active inflammation. The PMS may be more suitable for patients with contact lenses than other subconjunctival filtering surgeries, without eliminating bleb-associated risks. Consensus was reached that combining PMS implantation and phacoemulsification may be as safe as standalone PMS surgery, but further efficacy data are required. Following a late rise in IOP ≥ 4 months post-surgery, topical aqueous suppressant drops or bleb revision may be suitable management options. Conclusions: This Delphi panel builds on the considerations explored in the 2021 Delphi panel and provides further detailed guidance for glaucoma surgeons on the use of the PMS, reflecting the availability of novel evidence and surgical experience.

    Corneal aberrations in primary congenital glaucoma and its visual correlation
    (International Ophthalmology, 2024) Ly-Yang, Fernando; Morales Fernández, Laura; García Bella, Javier; Garcia Caride, Sara; Santos Bueso, Enrique Miguel; Saenz Frances, Federico; Fernández-Vigo López, José; García Feijoo, Julián; Martínez De La Casa Fernández-Borrella, José María
    Primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) can cause permanent vision loss, and its prognosis is related to early detection and treatment. The main pathological defect consists of resistance to aqueous outflow through the trabecular meshwork due to abnormal development of tissue derived from the neural crest in the anterior chamber angle. Even after successful intraocular pressure (IOP) management in PCG poor visual outcomes still present a lifelong challenge. Vision loss in PCG is multifactorial, resulting from optic nerve damage, corneal scarring, and myopic astigmatism associated with anisometropic amblyopia. Although it is already known that children with PCG present with an altered corneal configuration, the knowledge of irregular astigmatism due to high-order aberrations (HOA) and due to the unequal expansion of the anterior segment, and its impact on visual outcomes, is not yet fully understood, to the best of our knowledge. Quality vision is influenced by the presence of aberrations in the eye's optical system, which can degrade the quality of the image projected onto the retina. Low-order aberrations (LOA), including myopia, hyperopia, and regular astigmatism, can be corrected by spectacles, while HOA cannot be corrected by ordinary means. Coma and spherical aberrations are the most visually significant HOAs, while trefoil and other HOAs have a lower impact on visual quality. The purpose of this article is to establish a quantitative correlation between HOA and visual acuity (VA) to measure the magnitude of the impact of the altered cornea on visual outcomes in PCG.

    (Acta Ophthalmologica Scandinavica, 2006) Puell Marín, María Cinta; Benítez Del Castillo Sánchez, José Manuel; Martínez De La Casa Fernández-Borrella, José María; Sánchez Ramos, Celia; Aladro Vico, Eva; Pérez Carrasco, María Jesús; Pedraza Aranda, Constanza; Hierro Zarzuelo, Almudena, del
    Purpose: To evaluate contrast sensitivity and disability glare in patients with dry eye using the Contrast Glaretester 1000. Methods: Contrast sensitivity and disability glare were determined in 33 eyes of 33 patients with dry eye and 30 eyes of 30 healthy control subjects for six target sizes with a visual angle of 6.3-0.7 degrees using the Contrast Glaretester 1000, whose working mechanism is similar to that of the conventional perimetry instrument. Results: Contrast sensitivity was significantly worse in dry eye group when viewing all target sizes (reduction of 0.10-0.25 log contrast units, p < 0.01) except at 6.3 degrees. In the presence of glare, differences in log contrast sensitivity between the groups (0.10-0.25 units) were significant (p < 0.01) for all target sizes, with the dry eye group showing worse results. The reduction in contrast sensitivity induced by glare (disability glare) was significantly worse in the dry eye group versus the control group but only for the 2.5-degree size target, where 0.14 log contrast units were lost. Conclusions: Contrast sensitivity with and without glare was significantly reduced in patients with dry eye compared with control subjects, but the number of log contrast units lost with glare (disability glare) was similar in the two groups, except for the 2.5-degree size target.

    Diagnostic Ability of Macular Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness Using New Segmentation Software in Glaucoma Suspects
    (Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science, 2014) Martínez De La Casa Fernández-Borrella, José María; Cifuentes Canorea, Pilar; Berrozpe Villabona, Clara; Sastre Ibáñez, Marina; Polo Llorens, Vicente; Moreno Montañes, Javier; García Feijoo, Julián
    Purpose. To assess the capacity of internal retinal layer thickness measurements made at the macula using new spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) software to distinguish between healthy subjects and those with suspected glaucoma. The diagnostic performance of such measurements also was compared with that of conventional peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness measurements. Methods. The study included 38 subjects with suspected glaucoma and 38 age-matched healthy subjects. In one randomly selected eye of each participant, thickness measurements at the level of the macula were made of the nerve fiber layer (mRNFL), the ganglion cell layer (GCL), and the ganglion cell complex (GCC; GCL + internal plexiform layer) through automated OCT segmentation. Peripapillary RNFL thickness (pRNFL) also was determined using the conventional scan. Results. As the only variable showing intergroup variation, mRNFL in the glaucoma suspects was significantly thinner in the quadrants inner inferior (P = 0.003), inner temporal (P = 0.010), and outer inferior (P = 0.017). The variable best able to discriminate between the two groups was inner inferior mRNFL thickness, as indicated by an area below the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of 0.742. Conclusions. Macular RNFL thickness measurements showed an improved diagnostic capacity over the other variables examined to distinguish between healthy subjects and glaucoma suspects.

    Agreement and clinical comparison between a new swept-source optical coherence tomography-based optical biometer and an optical low-coherence reflectometry biometer
    (Eye, 2016) Arriola Villalobos, Pedro; Almendral Gómez, Jaime; Garzón Jiménez, Nuria; Ruiz Medrano, J; Fernandez Perez, C; Martínez De La Casa Fernández-Borrella, José María; Díaz Valle, David
    Purpose To compare measurements taken using a swept-source optical coherence tomography-based optical biometer (IOLmaster 700) and an optical low-coherence reflectometry biometer (Lenstar 900), and to determine the clinical impacts of differences in their measurements on intraocular lens (IOL) power predictions. Methods Eighty eyes of 80 patients scheduled to undergo cataract surgery were examined with both biometers. The measurements made using each device were axial length (AL), central corneal thickness (CCT), aqueous depth (AQD), lens thickness (LT), mean keratometry (MK), white-to-white distance (WTW), and pupil diameter (PD). Holladay 2 and SRK/T formulas were used to calculate IOL power. Differences in measurement between the two biometers were determined using the paired t-test. Agreement was assessed through intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) and Bland–Altman plots. Results Mean patient age was 76.3±6.8 years (range 59–89). Using the Lenstar, AL and PD could not be measured in 12.5 and 5.25% of eyes, respectively, while IOLMaster 700 took all measurements in all eyes. The variables CCT, AQD, LT, and MK varied significantly between the two biometers. According to ICCs, correlation between measurements made with both devices was excellent except for WTW and PD. Using the SRK/T formula, IOL power prediction based on the data from the two devices were statistically different, but differences were not clinically significant. Conclusions No clinically relevant differences were detected between the biometers in terms of their measurements and IOL power predictions. Using the IOLMaster 700, it was easier to obtain biometric measurements in eyes with less transparent ocular media or longer AL.

    Agreement between central corneal thickness measured using pentacam, ultrasound pachymetry, specular microscopy and optic biometer lenstar LS 900 and the influence of intraocular pressure
    (Ophthalmologica, 2014) Borrego Sanz, Lara; Saenz Frances, Federico; Bermudez Vallecilla, M. C.; Morales Fernández, Laura; Martínez De La Casa Fernández-Borrella, José María; Santos Bueso, Enrique; Jañez Escalada, Luis; García Feijoo, Julián
    Purpose: To compare central corneal thickness (CCT) values obtained by Lenstar (LE), Pentacam (PC), specular microscopy (SM) and ultrasound pachymetry (UP) in healthy corneas and study their influence on intraocular pressure (IOP) readings determined by Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT). Methods: CCT was measured in 76 healthy subjects by LE, PC, SM and UP. We established Lin's concordance correlation coefficient (ρ-C) between different techniques. The influence of CCT on GAT was established through univariate linear regression models, IOP being the dependent variable. Results: The highest ρ-C was found between LE and SM at 0.94 (95% CI: 0.91-0.96) and between LE and UP at 0.95 (95% CI: 0.94-0.97). IOP readings showed less variability when CCT was determined using LE (7.7%, B = 0.16; 95% CI: 0.004-0.28). Conclusions: Although CCT values obtained with UP, PC, SM and LE show good correlation, these methods are not completely interchangeable. The amount of IOP variation differs when CCT is determined using LE or SM.

    Visual outcomes after bilateral trifocal diffractive intraocular lens implantation
    (BMC Ophthalmology, 2015) Carballo Álvarez, Jesús; Vázquez Molini, José María; Sanz Fernández, Juan Carlos; García Bella, Javier; Polo Llorens, Vicente; García Feijoo, Julián; Martínez De La Casa Fernández-Borrella, José María
    Background In recent years new models of intraocular lenses are appearing on the market to reduce requirements for additional optical correction. The purpose of this study is to assess visual outcomes following bilateral cataract surgery and the implant of a FineVision® trifocal intraocular lens (IOL). Methods Prospective, nonrandomized, observational study. Vision was assessed in 44 eyes of 22 patients (mean age 68.4 ± 5.5 years) before and 3 months after surgery. Aberrations were determined using the Topcon KR-1 W wave-front analyzer. LogMAR visual acuity was measured at distance (corrected distance visual acuity, CDVA 4 m), intermediate (distance corrected intermediate visual acuity, DCIVA 60 cm) and near (distance corrected near visual acuity, DCNVA 40 cm). The Pelli-Robson letter chart and the CSV-1000 test were used to estimate contrast sensitivity (CS). Defocus curve testing was performed in photopic and mesopic conditions. Adverse photic phenomena were assessed using the Halo v1.0 program. Results Mean aberration values for a mesopic pupil diameter were: total HOA RMS: 0.41 ± 0.30 μm, coma: 0.32 ± 0.22 μm and spherical aberration: 0.21 ± 0.20 μm. Binocular logMAR measurements were: CDVA −0.05 ± 0.05, DCIVA 0.15 ± 0.10, and DCNVA 0.06 ± 0.10. Mean Pelli-Robson CS was 1.40 ± 0.14 log units. Mean CSV100 CS for the 4 frequencies examined (A: 3 cycles/degree (cpd), B: 6 cpd, C: 12 cpd, D: 18 cpd) were 1.64 ± 0.14, 1.77 ± 0.18, 1.44 ± 0.24 and 0.98 ± 0.24 log units, respectively. Significant differences were observed in defocus curves for photopic and mesopic conditions (p < 0.0001). A mean disturbance index of 0.28 ± 0.22 was obtained. Conclusions Bilateral FineVision IOL implant achieved a full range of adequate vision, satisfactory contrast sensitivity, and a lack of significant adverse photic phenomena.

    Effect of pharmacological pupil dilation on measurements and iol power calculation made using the new swept-source optical coherence tomography-based optical biometer
    (Journal Français D'Ophtalmologie, 2016) Arriola Villalobos, Pedro; Almendral Gómez, Jaime; Garzón Jiménez, Nuria; Ruiz-Medrano, Jorge; Fernández Pérez, Carlos; Martínez De La Casa Fernández-Borrella, José María; Díaz Valle, David
    Purpose: to determine whether pupil dilation affects biometric measurements and intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation made using the new swept-source optical coherence tomography-based optical biometer (IOLMaster 700©; Carl Zeiss Meditec, Jena, Germany). Procedures: eighty-one eyes of 81 patients evaluated for cataract surgery were prospectively examined using the IOLMaster 700© before and after pupil dilation with tropicamide 1%. The measurements made were: axial length (AL), central corneal thickness (CCT), aqueous chamber depth (ACD), lens thickness (LT), mean keratometry (MK), white-to-white distance (WTW) and pupil diameter (PD). Holladay II and SRK/T formulas were used to calculate IOL power. Agreement between measurement modes (with and without dilation) was assessed through intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) and Bland-Altman plots. Results: mean patient age was 75.17 ± 7.54 years (range: 57–92). Of the variables determined, CCT, ACD, LT and WTW varied significantly according to pupil dilation. Excellent intraobserver correlation was observed between measurements made before and after pupil dilation. Mean IOL power calculation using the Holladay 2 and SRK/T formulas were unmodified by pupil dilation. Conclusions: the use of pupil dilation produces statistical yet not clinically significant differences in some IOLMaster 700© measurements. However, it does not affect mean IOL power calculation.
