Normal RNFL results with SOCT are comparable to those reported with time-domain OCT. In accordance with the literature on other devices, RNFL thickness measured with SOCT was significantly correlated with age and axial length. For creating a normative database of SOCT RNFL values have to be age adjusted.

Off-label topical bevacizumab therapy against corneal neovascularization secondary to different corneal diseases was generally well-tolerated for up to 12 months. Bevacizumab (Avastin) eye drops inhibit corneal neovascularization, and lead to a reduction of the vessel diameter. Our results suggest that off-label use of Bevacizumab eye drops is a relatively safe and well-tolerated option for the treatment of corneal neovascularization. Care should be taken in patients with epithelial defects and neurotrophic keratopathy.

A significant relationship between age, CS and scatter was confirmed in our study. The results provide baseline values for the examination of patients with different diseases in which contrast sensitivity is impaired (such as glaucoma, cataracts and amblyopia) and might be useful in studies of roadworthiness or in investigation of the impact of intraocular lenses.
