ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence and risk factors of tessellation fundus (TF) among Tianjin Medical University students with different refractive statuses. MethodsA cross-sectional study. From September to December 2019, 346 students from Tianjin Medical University were randomly selected and underwent slit-lamp examination, non-cycloplegic auto-refraction, subjective refraction, best-corrected visual acuity, ocular biometric measurement, and non-dilation fundus photography. The differences in the prevalence of TF in basic characteristics and ocular biometric parameters were compared. Based on the equivalent spherical (SE), refractive status was divided into the non-myopia group (SE＞－0.50 D) and the myopia group (SE≤－0.50 D). The myopia group was further divided into mild myopia group (－3.00 D＜SE≤－0.50 D), moderate myopia group (－6.00 D＜SE≤－3.00 D), and high myopia group (SE≤－6.00 D). According to the axis length (AL), the subjects were divided into AL＜24 mm group, 24-26 mm group, and ＞26 mm group. The logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors affecting TF. Trend tests were performed for each risk factor and TF. ResultsOf the 346 subjects, 324 (93.6%, 324/346) were myopia, of whom 73 (21.1%, 73/346), 167 (48.3%, 167/346), and 84 (24.3%, 84/346) were mild myopia, moderate myopia, and high myopia, respectively; 22 (6.4%, 22/346) were non-myopia. There were 294 (85.0%, 294/346) students with TF in the macula, including 9 (40.91%, 9/22), 58 (79.45%, 58/73), 145 (86.83%, 145/167), and 82 (97.62%, 82/84) in non-myopia, low myopia, moderate myopia, and high myopia group, respectively; 52 (15.0%, 52/346) students were without TF in the macula. There were statistically significant gender differences (χ2=4.47), SE (t=6.29), AL (t=－8.29), anterior chamber depth (Z=－2.62), lens thickness (Z=－2.23), and average corneal radius (Z=－3.58) between students with and without TF in the macula (P＜0.05). Spherical equivalent and axial length were independent risk factors for TF and its severity (P≤0.001). With an increasing degree of myopia, and increasing axial length, the risk of TF increased (P for trend＜0.001). ConclusionsThe prevalence of TF is 85.0% among Tianjin Medical University students. TF is detected in the fundus of no myopia, mild myopia, moderate myopia and high myopia. The degree of myopia is higher, the AL is longer, the possibility of TF is higher.

Methods A total of 38 patients with IOFB from July 2005 to March 2006 were divided into a trial group (15 patients) and control group (23 patients). The treatment for traumatic retinal vitreous lesions and extraction of IOFB were performed under the intraocular micro-endoscope in the trial group; while the conventional vitrectomy and IOFB extraction were performed under the microscope in the control group. Results The degree of corneal recovery, improvement of intraocular pressure, visual acuity, and retinal reattachment were better in the trial group than that in the control group. There was no difference in removal of IOFB, surgical time and complications between the two groups. Conclusion In patients with intraocular foreign bodies and cloudy cornea or other conditions that made the observation difficult, intraocular micro-endoscope is a useful convenience without relying on donated cornea. The practice made the judge of size, location and the distance more and more accurate through the monitor.
Due to lack of the practical technique to measure the biomechanical properties of the ocular cornea in vivo, clinical ophthalmologists have some difficulties in understanding the deformation mechanism of the cornea under the action of physiological intraocular pressures. Using Young's theory analysis of the corneal deformation during applanation tonometry, the relation between the elasticity moduli of the cornea and the applanated corneal area and the measured and true intraocular pressures can be obtained. A new applanation technique has been developed for measuring the biomechanical properties of the ocular cornea tissue in vivo, which can simultaneously acquire the data of the applanation area and displacement of the corneal deformation as well as the exerted applanation force on the cornea. Experimental results on a rabbit's eyeball demonstrated that the present technique could be used to measure the elasticity moduli and creep properties of the ocular cornea nondestructively in vivo.
Objective To observe the biocompatibility of the acellular corneal stroma materials prepared by three different methods. Methods Three different serial digestion methods were used to produce the acellular corneal stroma materials. The biocompatibility of the materials was investigated by the cell seeding and the materials were implanted into the rabbit corneal stroma layer. Results The cells in the materials 1 and 2 were not decellularized completely. The rabbit corneal fibroblasts died on the materials 1 and 2 after the cell seeding for 3-4 days. An obvious rejection could be observed after the implantation. The cells in material 3 were decellularized completely and the collagen fibers or elastic fibers were reserved integrally，showing a typical three-dimensional net work. The rabbit corneal fibroblasts could expand on the materials in vitro. No obvious rejection could be observed and the materials were gradually absorbed. Conclusion The acellular porcine cornea stroma materials prepared by trypsin-Dnase-Rnase are suitable for reconstruction of the tissue engineered cornea.
Objective To evaluate the relative factors of effect of vitrectomy on corneal endothelial cells. Methods Retrospective analysis of the results of corneal endothelium microscopy performed on 213 eyes of 213 patients undergone vetrectomy operations including single vitrectomy (78 eyes), vitrectomy combined with cataract extraction (135 eyes), silicone oil injection (34 eyes), and C3F8 injection (53 eyes) before and after 1 week, 1 and 3 moths of these surgical procedures. Results There was no significant difference between pre- and postoperative corneal endothelium density in single vitrectomy group and vitrectomy combined with cataract extraction with posterior capsule integrity group (Pgt;0.05). The corneal endothelium density significantly decreased postoperatively in C3F8or silicone oil injection group with broken posterior capsule (Plt;0.05). Conclusion C3F8 and silicone oil may damnify corneal endothelium in patients undergo vitrectom y combined with cataract extraction with broken posterior capsule.

Methods Forty-four patients (44 eyes) with high myopia from January 2007 to January 2009, whose C /D area ratios were above 0.5, underwent optical coherence tomography(OCT)examination. To measure the RNFL thickness taking optic disk as the center, diameter as 3.4 mm, for quadrant graph as above, below, temporal, lateral. After the operation in the first 10 days, and one, three months, and one, two years after surgery were followed. The data were analyzed by analysis of variance. Results The RNFL thickness at every quadrant had no statistical significant difference between preoperative period and postoperative time(Pgt;0.05). Conclusion Epi-LASIK surgery has no effect on RNFL thickness in high myopic patients with large cup.
Objiective To observe the changes of angioarchitecture of the optic disc in cats eyes after radial optic neurotomy (RON). Methods Ten healthy adult cats underwent unilateral RON randomly in 10 eyes as an operative group in this trial, and the fellow eyes (10 eyes) were as the control group. The colophony samples of vascular angioarchitecture of 20 eyes were made 90 days after RON and scanning electron microscope was used for the observation. Results In the control group, the blood supply of optic disc mainly came from the short posterior ciliary artery, pial artery, and retinal ciliary artery; the choroidal capillary vessels around the optic disc didnprime;t take part in the blood supply in the anterior area; retinal central vascular system and complete arterial circle around the optic nerves were not seen. In the operative group, a V-shaped defect of the optic disc, retinal blood vessels and choroidal capillary vessels was found at the surgical incision; no injury of retinal blood vessels and choroidal large vascular layer was seen, and neovascularization at the incision were not found. Conclusions RON may cause the vascular defect of the optic disc and the peripheral local tissues. The depth of the incision doesnprime;t reach the Zinn-Hallers circle.

ObjectiveTo compare the changes of corneal astigmatism after long-term spherical and toric orthokeratology wearing, and to investigate the effects of different orthokeratology design on corneal astigmatism.MethodsThe medical records of myopic adolescent patients who have been prescribed spherical and toric orthokeratology in the contact lens clinic of West China Hospital, Sichuan University between January 2019 and December 2021 were analyzed retrospectively.The differences of corneal astigmatism changes after wearing spherical and toric orthokeratology for a long time and one month discontinuation were compared. The influencing factors of corneal astigmatism changes were analyzed. ResultsA total of 156 patients were included. There were 76 cases (76 eyes) in spherical orthokeratology group and 80 cases (80 eyes) in toric orthokeratology group. There was no significant difference between the two groups in age, gender, baseline myopia diopter and total lens wearing time (P>0.05). There were statistically significant differences between the spherical orthokeratology group and the toric orthokeratology group in the baseline corneal flat K value [42.1 (41.3, 43.3) vs. 43.1 (42.0, 44.1) D], baseline corneal steep K value [(43.4±1.3) vs. (44.6±1.5) D], baseline corneal astigmatism [(1.1±0.5) vs. (1.6±0.6) D], and baseline total eye astigmatism [−0.6 (−1.2, 0.0) vs. −1.4 (−1.8, −1.0) D] before wearing the orthokeratology (P<0.05). Compared with the baseline value, 1 month after the two groups stopped wearing the orthokeratology, the corneal flat K values became flatter [spherical orthokeratology group: 42.09 (41.28, 43.34) vs. 41.73 (40.98, 43.16) D, toric orthokeratology group: 43.09 (41.95, 44.10) vs. 42.61 (41.52, 43.56) D; P<0.05], the changes of corneal steep K values were not statistically significant (P>0.05), but the corneal astigmatism values increased [spherical orthokeratology group: (1.05±0.49) vs. (1.37±0.56) D, toric orthokeratology group: (1.62±0.57) vs. (1.99±0.63) D; P<0.05]. There was no significant difference in the changes of corneal flat K value, corneal steep K value and corneal astigmatism between the two groups (P>0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that age (P=0.011) and the total duration of orthokeratology wearing (P=0.004) were the main factors affecting the changes of corneal astigmatism. ConclusionAfter 1 month of non-wearing, the flat K value of the cornea becomes flat, the steep K value remains unchanged, and the corneal astigmatism increases. There is no difference in the effect of the spherical and toric orthokeratology on corneal astigmatism. The change of corneal astigmatism is related to the patient’s age and the total duration of wearing the orthokeratology. The younger the age, the longer the duration of orthokeratology wearing, the more significant the increase of corneal astigmatism after stopping wearing the orthokeratology.
