We have shown that axial length/refractive status affected the peripapillary RNFL thickness profile measured by RTVue OCT. To make a correct diagnosis for glaucoma, either the axial length-induced magnification effect should corrected by ophthalmologists or the RTVue OCT database should be improved by taking axial length into account.
LE was as effective as prednisolone and more effective than fluorometholone, and it had no side effects during the short-term treatment of VKC patients.
In conclusion, axial length influences peripapillary RNFL thickness as measured by RTVue OCT. However, this appears to be due to the ocular magnification effects associated with axial length and can be corrected for with the application of the Littman formula.
In this case report, we document a 54-year-old woman with total bilateral optic nerve atrophy after local application of methanol containing spirit. Almost all the reported cases of methanol intoxication in the literature are caused by oral ingestion. In this rare case, we present transdermal absorption of methanol that may cause irreversible blindness in addition to intracerebral lesions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
