Capsulorhexis and Hydrodissection

סרט וידאו קצר זה הוצג לראשונה בכינוס המיקרו-כירורגי לרפואת עיניים באילת, 2012, והוא מכיל עצות ותובנות לגבי שני שלבים חשובים בניתוח הקטרקט: קפסולורקסיס (פתיחת חלון עגול בקופסית הקדמית של העדשה) והידרודיסקציה (יצירת הפרדה בין הקופסית לתוכן העדשה בעזרת גל של נוזל שמוזרק בין הקופסית לבין קורטקס העדשה).

פיתוח טכנולוגיה חדשה: בדיקת חדות ראיה ממוחשבת

  Background Visual acuity is by far the most important diagnostic eye test.It determines whether one’s vision is normal or reduced, and if so, by how much.In contrast to its importance, visual acuity is currently determined by a manual test which has hardly changed in the past century. Perhaps the only change made to the

Detecting glaucoma progression

 By: Cheryl Guttman Ophthalmology Times/Special Report Fort Lauderdale, FL-What constitutes glaucoma progression and the relationship between progressive structural and functional injury? These were the main questions researchers set out to answer during a glaucoma mini-symposium at the annual meeting of the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology. Moderator Jeffrey M. Liebmann, MD, noted that

Adjusting The Slit-Lamp Oculars: An Unnecessary Burden Or A Must?

Blumenthal EZ. Surv Ophthalmol. 1995 Nov-Dec;40(3):225-8. Department of Opthalmology, Hadassah University Hospital, Jerusalem, Israel. ABSTRACT: Adjusting the slit-lamp eyepiece rings is perceived by some to be insignificant for achieving adequate focus. Others assume that these rings should be set only to compensate for one’s refractive error. Observations are presented concerning the eyepiece scale setting during

On Focusing The Slit-Lamp: Part I. An Inaccurate Ocular Setting–What Is There To Lose?

Blumenthal EZ, Serpetopoulos CN. Surv Ophthalmol. 1998 Jan-Feb;42(4):351-4. Department of Ophthalmology, Hadassah University Hospital, Jerusalem, Israel. ABSTRACT: Adjustments of the diopter rings on the slit-lamp oculars compensate for three independent factors: the observer’s refractive error, the observer’s state of accommodation, and any instrument misalignment. An inaccurate setting of these rings will significantly affect the slit-lamp

Glaucomatous-Like Cupping Associated With Slow-Growing Supra-Sellar Intracranial Lesions

Blumenthal EZ, Girkin CA, Dotan S. Neuro-Ophthalmology. 2006;30:111-115. Department of Ophthalmology, Hebrew University-Hadassah Medical Center, Jerusalem, Israel. eblumenthal@md.huji.ac.il ABSTRACT: PURPOSE: To demonstrate that slow-growing intracranial suprasellar mass lesions can be associated with optic disc cupping, clinically indistinguishable from glaucomatous optic neuropathy. CASES: At a neuro-ophthalmology tertiary clinic, a retrospective chart review identified four patients of

On Focusing The Slit-Lamp: Part II. “The Fading-Slit Test” Verifying The Ocular Setting

Blumenthal EZ, Serpetopoulos CN Surv Ophthalmol. 1998 Jan-Feb;42(4):355-7. Department of Ophthalmology, Hadassah University Hospital, Jerusalem, Israel. ABSTRACT The focusing-rod test is considered the gold standard for determining the correct setting of the slit-lamp ocular rings. This method is, however, somewhat time-consuming, considering the time it often takes to locate a rod every time one switches
