Prevalence of refractive errors in the Slovak population calculated using the Gullstrand schematic eye model Journal > /en/journal/2017/3/5
Purpose: Large part of the population suffers of some kind of refractive errors. It is supposed that their prevalence could change with the development of the society. The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of refractive errors using calculations based on the Gullstrand schematic eye. Methods: We used Gullstrand schematic eye to calculate refraction retrospectively. Refraction was pr...
Combination of intravitreal corticosteroid with anti-VEGF in macular edema secondary to retinal vein occlusion Journal > /en/journal/2017/5%2B6/3
Purpose: functioal and anatomical results afer combinationof intravitreal dexamethasone implant with anti-VGF bevacizumab in macular edema secondary to retinal ein occlusion. Methods: Retrospectie analysis of 50 patints, average age 72 years, 15 men and 35 women.

The Effect of Multiple Variables on the Refractive Error After Cataract Surgery Journal > /en/journal/2018/4/6
Purpose: To analyze refractive results after cataract surgery in relation to used type of monofocal intraocular lens, calculation formula, to age, gender and laterality. Settings: Department of Ophthalmology, Comenius University and University hospital in Bratislava, Slovakia Methods: We analyzed 173 eyes (118 patients) after uneventful cataract surgery. We calculated prediction error (PE) and mea...
Optic Disc Drusen and Heamodynamics Journal > /en/journal/2019/5/2
Purpose: The problem of optic disc drusen (ODD) has been described in detail in several publications. However, less attention has been devoted to real haemodynamic parameters (HP) in ODD. It has been clinically demonstrated that the occurrence and progression of changes in the visual field in ODD are closely linked with the haemodynamics of the vascular supply of the eye – the optic nerve. ODD may...
Intravitreal Therapy of Endogenous Endophthalmitis due to Urosepsis – A Case Report Journal > /en/journal/2019/5/6
This case report describes a case of endogenous endophthalmitis in a 58 year old man upon a background of urosepsis and bronchitis. The patient was hospitalised at a department of internal medicine in another hospital. The day after admittance he was sent to our clinic for a consultation examination due to worsening of vision and pain in the left eye. The condition was diagnosed as endogenous endo...
Pupillotonia and Adie Syndrome Journal > /en/journal/2020/5/5
The aim of the work is to approach the examination of the pupil with a focus on anisocoria, its characteristics and approach to the diagnosis of pupillotonia and Adie's syndrome and its clinical evaluation. Pupil function is important not only in neurophthalmological examination but also in general ophthalmological examination. First of all, we need to know how the reflex arc works in order to be ...
Sars-Cov-2 Pandemic From The Ophthalmologist`S Perspective. A Review Journal > /en/journal/2022/5/1
In December 2019, a novel coronavirus (CoV) epidemic, caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) emerged from China. Coronaviruses belong to enveloped ssRNA viruses and are classified into four genera: Alpha coronavirus, Beta coronavirus, Gamma coronavirus and Delta coronavirus. It is assumed that SARS-CoV-2 is spread primarily during a personal contact via bigger r...
