Abstract

Introduction & ObjectivesThe management of macular edema is constantly evaluated, with anti-VEGF therapy being the firstline. Subthreshold micropulse laser (SML) has been proposed as alternative adjuvant. Previousretrospective studies demonstrated the effectiveness of 577-nm SML as monotherapy in macularedema with CMT below 400 ?m. However, prospective data on the effectiveness of SML as adjuvantis lacking. The aim is to assess the effect of the combination of bevacizumab and 577-nm SML lasercompared to bevacizumab monotherapy on central macular thickness and visual acuity in mildmoderatediabetic macular edema patients. MethodsA prospective randomized clinical trial was performed on diabetic macular edema patients withmacular thickness range of 300-600 ?m. Subjects are divided into two groups. The control groupreceived a standard protocol and the study group received a yellow SML laser adjuvant one weekafter injection. Patients underwent follow-up assessment of visual acuity and central macularthickness at 28 and 35 days post-injection. Results26 subjects were equally divided into study and control groups. Significant decrease in CMT werefound in study group (p=0.011 and 0.014) and the control group (p=0.006 and p=0.001). However,there was no significant difference in ?CMT values between the two groups in the 28-day (p=0.317)and 35-day controls (p=0.84). There was no difference in ?BCVA ETDRS between the study andcontrol groups at 28 days (p=0.568) and 35 days (p=0.128) after injection. ConclusionThe combination of SML and intravitreal bevacizumab can reduce central macular thickness andimprove visual acuity but there was no significant difference with standard monotherapy.

Abstract

Abstract Introduction & Objectives : Graves' ophthalmopathy (GO) ocular abnormalities persisted even after treatment, negatively impacting the patient's psychological and social health. The Indonesian Graves' Ophthalmopathy Quality of Life (GO-QoL) Questionnaire has not been validated; hence it cannot measure patient quality of life in Indonesia, which is crucial to GO treatment. This objective of this study is providinga reliable Indonesian GO-QoL questionnaire and identifying an association between patient quality of life and clinical activity and severity of GO. Methods : The cross-sectional study ran from May through October 2022. Graves' ophthalmopathy and thyroid disease management were the inclusion criteria. Those who could not be reached by video call or controlled for two weeks for test-retest data collection were excluded. The process of questionnaire validation involves transcultural adaptation and cross-sectional design. The content validity index (CVI) and Cronbach's alpha assessed validity and reliability, respectively. Results : Content validity index (CVI) was 1.00 for the Indonesian GO-QoL questionnaire. Cronbach's alpha visual function subscale value was 0.971, while the appearance subscale value was 0.993, and the total score was 0.986. The appearance subscale and total score of GO patients' quality of life had a significant association with the clinical activity score (p<0.05) and disease severity (p<0.001). Conclusion : The Indonesian version of the GO-QoL questionnaire has high validity and reliability values. Patients' appearance and overall quality of life decreases with active Graves' ophthalmopathy. Graves' ophthalmopathy severity decreases quality of life on the appearance and overall subscales.

Abstract

Abstract Introduction & Objectives : Various simulation models are available for cataract surgery training. Farra Eye Model, a new cataract surgery simulator, was developed to provide the resident with more affordable options. This study aims to determine the validity and reliability of the Farra Eye Model as a surgical simulator for capsulorhexis training. Methods : A cross-sectional pilot study was performed among ophthalmology residents and consultants to assess face, content, and construct validity of a new surgical simulator. Subjects were divided into novice, intermediate, and expert groups according to their level of expertise. Face and content validity was assessed using a validated questionnaire with a 5-point Likert scale response. Construct validity was done by comparing capsulorhexis performance between the three groups. Two raters assessed performance using capsulorhexis indices in ICO-OSCAR: Phaco assessment tool, number of forceps grabs, and duration of capsulorhexis. Results : A total of 33 subjects were recruited and divided equally into three groups. The overall face validity score was favorable (3.67 ± 0.67). However, the capsule elasticity was rated poor (2.73 ± 1.1) among the intermediate group. The content validity was favorable regarding the overall score (4.15± 0.58) and each assessment component. In the construct validity test, intermediate and expert groups showed better capsulorhexis performance than the novice group on all parameters (p<0.001), with good inter-rater reliability (ICC>0.7). Conclusion : Farra Eye Model has a good face and content validity for capsulorhexis training and is able to differentiate the novice group from intermediate and expert groups. However, it remains a challenge to replicate human lens capsule elasticity.
