    Abstract Introduction: The aim of this work is to investigate the dynamic changes of capsular-intraocular lens (IOL) adhesion in plate-haptic hydrophilic and loop-haptic hydrophobic eyes.
    Methods: Cataract eyes that met the inclusion criteria were randomly assigned to receive implantation of a plate-haptic hydrophilic or loop-haptic IOL. The anterior capsular adhesion, posterior capsular adhesion, and the configurations of the capsular bend were evaluated using swept-source optical coherence tomography at 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months postoperatively.
    Results: In total, 66 eyes of 66 patients were eligible for the analysis: 33 in the plate-haptic group and 33 in the loop-haptic group. The contact between the anterior capsule and IOL in the plate-haptic group was earlier than that in the loop-haptic group upon comparing the measurements taken at 1 day and 1 week (p = 0.001, p = 0.003, respectively). The complete attachment of the posterior capsule and IOL in the plate-haptic group was significantly greater at 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months (p = 0.001, p = 0.000, p = 0.001, respectively). The capsular bend index of the plate-haptic group was significantly greater than that of the loop-haptic group at each time points except at 1 day (p = 0.007, p = 0.049, p = 0.005, respectively). Furthermore, a new type of capsular bend, "cocked adhesion," was observed in the plate-haptic eyes.
    Conclusions: The plate-haptic IOL demonstrated excellent capsular adhesion compared to the loop-haptic IOL, which was probably attributed to haptic compressibility. A special cocked configuration of the capsular bend in plate-haptic IOL was observed for the first time. Further studies are warranted to confirm the effect of the new type of capsular bend.

    Abstract Aim: To observe the change of capsulotomy opening diameter (COD) in aphakic eyes after primary congenital cataract removal and investigate its influencing factors.
    Methods: Ocular parameters, including corneal diameter (CD), axial length (AL), anterior and posterior COD (ACOD, PCOD), and age at surgery were recorded at primary congenital cataract removal and secondary intraocular lens implantation. The concentrations of 15 kinds of cytokines in aqueous humor samples collected at the primary surgery were detected. The change (Δ) of COD between two surgeries were described, and its association was analyzed.
    Results: Fifty eyes from 33 patients with congenital cataract who underwent primary and secondary surgery were enrolled. The changes in ACOD and PCOD were not statistically significant on the whole. ΔACOD was positively correlated with ΔCD and the concentrations of PDGF-AA, VEGF and TGF-β1. The concentration of FGF-2 and the interval between two surgeries showed negative correlations with ΔACOD and ΔPCOD.
    Conclusion: COD in aphakic eyes kept changing after primary surgery. The positive correlation between ΔACOD and ΔCD manifested the enlargement of ACOD was influenced by lateral eye growth. Meanwhile, ΔACOD was also associated with cytokines, indicating postoperative inflammation promoted the ACOD constriction.

    Abstract As an indispensable part of congenital cataract surgery, intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in infantile patients has long-term positive impacts on visual rehabilitation, as well as postoperative complications inevitably. Timing of IOL implantation in infantile congenital cataract patients is not simply a point-in-time but a personalized decision that comprehensively takes age at surgery, risks of postoperative complications, and economic condition of family in consideration, and combines with choosing suitable IOL type and power. For infants with well-developed eyeballs and good systemic conditions, IOL implantation at six months of age or older is safe and effective. Otherwise, secondary IOL implantation may be a safer choice.

    Abstract Objectives: To investigate the characteristic cytokine profile of the aqueous humor in eyes with congenital cataract and pre-existing posterior capsule dysfunction (PCD).
    Methods: In this cross-sectional study, the enrolled eyes with congenital cataract and PCD were included in the PCD group, while those with an intact posterior capsule were included in the control group. Demographic data and biometric parameters were recorded. The levels of 17 inflammatory factors in the aqueous humor collected from the enrolled eyes were detected using Luminex xMAP technology, and intergroup differences in the collected data were analyzed.
    Results: The PCD group comprised 41 eyes from 31 patients with congenital cataract and PCD, whereas the control group comprised 42 eyes from 27 patients with congenital cataract and an intact posterior capsule. Lens thickness was significantly thinner in the PCD group than in the control group. However, the levels of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), transforming growth factor-β2 (TGF-β2), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were significantly higher in the PCD group than in the control group. Multivariate logistic regression confirmed that lens thickness and TGF-β2 level were independent risk factors for PCD.
    Conclusion: A thinner lens thickness in eyes with congenital cataract and PCD could serve as a biometric feature of these eyes. The higher levels of MCP-1, TGF-β2, and VEGF in eyes with PCD indicated a change in their intraocular inflammatory microenvironment, which possibly led to cataract progression. Lens thickness and TGF-β2 level are independent risk factors for PCD.

    Abstract Background and aims: The National Standardized Training for Resident Doctors (STRD) in mainland China encounters many challenges in its implementation. To investigate whether outpatients are willing to undergo indirect ophthalmoscopy examination conducted by ophthalmology residents in the ophthalmology STRD program in China.
    Methods: This study conducted a cross-sectional survey at the Eye Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University between September 2021 and September 2023. A cohort of 300 initial outpatients requiring indirect ophthalmoscopy examinations were enlisted from the outpatient department. Based on whether the patients are willing to undergo an indirect ophthalmoscopy examination by resident doctors, patients were divided into two groups: Group 1 (willing) and Group 2 (unwilling), and their questionnaire responses were comparatively analyzed.
    Results: A total of 261/300 (87%) valid questionnaires were returned in the survey, which included 149 males and 112 females. No notable gender difference (
    Conclusion: The level of outpatients' cooperation with ophthalmology residents during fundus examinations in the Chinese ophthalmology STRD program was observed to be low. Enhancing the presence of training faculty during examinations and enhancing the communication skills of training residents could significantly improve this situation.

    Abstract Aim: To investigate the efficacy of a new visual acuity (VA) screening method, the baby vision test for young children.
    Methods: A total 105 eyes of 65 children aged 2-8y were included in the study. Acuity testing was conducted using a standardized recognition acuity chart (Snellen visual chart: at 3 m) and the baby vision model assessment. The baby vision device includes a screen, a near infrared camera and a computer. Children were seated at a measured distance of 33-40 cm from a display for testing. VA was estimated according to the highest resolution the children could follow. Decimal VA data were converted to logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) for statistical analysis. The VA results for each child were recorded and analyzed for consistency.
    Results: The mean VA measured using the Snellen visual chart was 0.62±0.32, and that assessed using the baby vision test was 0.66±0.27. The 95% limit of agreement was -0.609 to 0.695, with 95.2% (100/105) plots within the 95% limits of agreement. VA values of the baby vision test were significantly correlated with those of the Snellen chart (
    Conclusion: The baby vision test can be used as a relatively reliable method for estimating VA in young children. This new acuity assessment might be a valid predictor of optotype-measured acuity later in preverbal children.

    Abstract Purpose: To investigate the effect of anterior capsule polishing on postoperative capsule opacification and capsular bend in patients with age-related cataract displaying normal axial length.
    Setting: University hospital.
    Design: Prospective self-controlled trial.
    Methods: Patients with age-related cataracts aged 56 to 84 years displaying normal axial length were enrolled. Prior to surgery, a coin-toss method was used to randomly select one eye for intraoperative 360° anterior capsule polishing (polishing group); the contralateral eye received no treatment (control group). Capsular bend index (CBI), anterior capsule opacification (ACO), posterior capsule opacification (PCO), and anterior capsule opening area (ACOA) were recorded at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months postoperatively using swept-source optical coherence tomography and slit-lamp examination.
    Results: Twenty-one patients (42 eyes) were enrolled. Within-group comparisons showed that both groups had significant differences in CBI between 1 week and 1 month postoperatively, and between 6 months and 12 months postoperatively (P < .05). Between-group comparisons revealed a significant difference in CBI at 1 week postoperatively (P < .05); at 12 months postoperatively, there was a significant difference in ACOA (P < .05). There were no significant between-group differences regarding ACO or PCO at any time point (P > .05).
    Conclusions: For patients with age-related cataracts and normal axial length, 360° anterior capsule polishing can delay early capsular bag deformation without increasing the risks of ACO and PCO. This approach can also limit contraction of the anterior capsule opening.

    Abstract Purpose: To explore the effect of corneal spherical aberration on the visual acuity and visual quality of eyes implanted with the TECNIS Symfony intraocular lens (IOL).
    Methods: A total of 43 patients with age-related cataract (60 eyes) undergoing phacoemulsification and TECNIS Symfony IOL implantation were enrolled in this study. The uncorrected distance (UDVA), intermediate (UIVA), near visual acuity (UNVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), contrast sensitivity, and ocular spherical aberration were recorded 3 months after surgery. Preoperative and postoperative corneal spherical aberration were also measured using the iTrace device. Objective scattering index (OSI), modulation transfer function cut-off frequency (MTF cut-off), and Strehl ratio (SR) were measured by the Optical Quality Analyzing System. Catquest-9SF questionnaire were applied too. Spearman's correlation analysis was used to evaluate the relationship between spherical aberration and visual quality parameters.
    Results: Patients were satisfied with their postoperatively visual quality. And the postoperative logMAR UDVA, UIVA, UNVA, and CDVA was 0.05 ± 0.07, 0.04 ± 0.06, 0.15 ± 0.07, and 0.03 ± 0.05, respectively. The mean preoperative corneal spherical aberration was 0.24 ± 0.10 μm, which is the only factor influencing postoperatively UNVA, and it was negatively correlated with UNVA and glare contrast sensitivity under 18 cpd (cycle/degree, cpd) spatial frequency (
    Conclusion: Preoperative positive spherical aberration can benefit near vision while decrease contrast sensitivities at high spatial frequencies when implanted with the TECNIS Symfony IOL.

    Abstract In this study, we evaluate and compare the outcomes of conventional phacoemulsification cataract surgery (CPS) and femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) with the implantation of an extended depth of field (EDOF) intraocular lens (IOL). A prospective, consecutive cohort study was conducted. Patients were given the option to choose FLACS or CPS and were implanted with an EDOF IOL. Refractive data, visual acuity data, ocular aberration measured with a wavefront aberrometer, and optical quality measured with an optical quality analysis system II were collected at one month postoperatively. A total of 92 eyes of 64 patients were enrolled in this study; 35 eyes of 26 patients were treated with FLACS, whereas 57 eyes of 38 patients were treated with CPS. Uncorrected visual acuity at far, intermediate, and near distance and best-spectacle-corrected visual acuity were not statistically significantly different between the groups (all

    Abstract In this study, we evaluate and compare the outcomes of conventional phacoemulsification cataract surgery (CPS) and femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) with the implantation of an extended depth of field (EDOF) intraocular lens (IOL). A prospective, consecutive cohort study was conducted. Patients were given the option to choose FLACS or CPS and were implanted with an EDOF IOL. Refractive data, visual acuity data, ocular aberration measured with a wavefront aberrometer, and optical quality measured with an optical quality analysis system II were collected at one month postoperatively. A total of 92 eyes of 64 patients were enrolled in this study; 35 eyes of 26 patients were treated with FLACS, whereas 57 eyes of 38 patients were treated with CPS. Uncorrected visual acuity at far, intermediate, and near distance and best-spectacle-corrected visual acuity were not statistically significantly different between the groups (all p > 0.05), nor were the mean cylinder and mean spherical equivalent refraction (both p > 0.05). The FLACS group had a lower ocular trefoil than the CPS group ( p = 0.033), and there was no significant difference between the two groups considering other aberration parameters, whether ocular or internal (all p > 0.05). Optical-quality-related parameters showed also no significant difference between the two groups (all p > 0.05). In conclusion, there was no significant difference between FLACS and CPS with implantation of EDOF IOLs in postoperative ocular parameters, refractive outcomes, ocular aberration, optical quality, and aberration parameters, except a lower ocular trefoil in the FLACS group. In terms of these indicators, FLACS does not provide an additional clinical benefit for patients over CPS.
