临床上囊袋张力环(capsular tension ring,CTR)与睫状体接触导致的反复持续性高眼压较为少见,本文报告一例改良型CTR植入术后反复持续性高眼压的病例,行“巩膜悬吊线松解术”后高眼压状态有效缓解,考虑可能与巩膜固定缝线过紧,造成改良型CTR局部与睫状体相接触,刺激睫状体分泌过量房水有关。
Recurrent intraocular hypertension caused by contact between capsular tension ring (CTR) and ciliary body is rare clinically. We report a case of recurrent intraocular hy pertension after modified CTR implantation. The IOP returned to normal levels when released the scleral suture. We speculated that the ciliary process irritated by MCTR might increase aqueous humor secretion because of a tight scleral suture.
眼表菌群是定植于眼表的各种微生物群落,以细菌为主。在正常情况下,眼表菌群与人体眼表组织的细胞和平共生,维持眼表的稳态,共同保证眼表的健康。但在环境改变或免疫力低下的情况下,眼表菌群会发生变化,与眼部疾病的产生与发展关系密切,对人类的健康造成巨大的危害。随着组学研究的不断发展,我们对眼表菌群有了新的认识,为眼表疾病的发病机制、治疗开辟了新的思路,同时也提出了新的挑战。本文对国内外眼表菌群与疾病关系进行综述,为眼表疾病的发生、发展以及治疗提供参考。
The microbiome of the ocular surface consists of various microbial communities that colonize on the eye surface, mainly bacteria. The stabilization of the microbiome and the other ocular surface components plays an important role in maintaining the homeostasis of the ocular surface. However, unpredictable changes of ocular surface microbiome are strongly associated with ocular surface diseases in the situation of environmental changes or destruction of immune system. With the innovation of inspection technology, the current gene sequencing technology is applied to detect the ocular surface microbiome and confirm that the eye microbiome is closely related to ocular surface diseases. This paper investigates the corelation of ocular surface microbiomes and diseases. Moreover, we provide areference for the occurrence and development of ocular surface diseases and their treatment.
阿尔茨海默病(Alzheimer’s disease,AD)是发生于老年期或老年前期的中枢神经系统退行性病变,以进行性认知功能障碍为特征。随着社会老龄化加剧,AD已成为全球公共卫生问题,亟需研发更敏感、便捷和经济的筛查技术进行早期防控。眼球运动与认知功能密切相关,且眼球运动检查有非侵入性、成本低、检查时间短等优点。研究眼球运动异常和认知功能障碍之间的相关性,有助于研发更简便易操作的认知功能障碍筛查工具。随着人工智能技术的发展,机器学习算法强大的特征提取和计算能力对处理眼球运动检查结果有显著优势。本文对既往AD患者与眼球运动异常之间的相关性研究进行综述,并对机器学习算法模型辅助下,基于眼球运动异常模式进行认知功能障碍早期筛查技术开发的研究前景予以展望。
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a degenerative disease of the central nervous system that occurs in old age or early old age. It is characterized by progressive cognitive dysfunction. With the world population aging, AD has become a global public health problem. The development of a more sensitive, convenient, and economic screening technology for AD is urgently needed. The eye movement function is closely related to cognitive function. Moreover, eye movement examination has advantages including non-invasiveness, low cost, and short examination time. Researches on the correlation between abnormal eye movement and cognitive dysfunction can help to develop a simple and easy-to-use screening tool for cognitive dysfunction. With the development of artificial intelligence technology, the dominant feature extraction and computing capabilities of machine learning algorithms have a significant advantage in processing eye movement inspection results. This article reviews the correlation between AD and eye movement abnormalities aiming to provide the research prospects of early screening technology development for cognitive dysfunction based on abnormal eye movement with the application of machine learning models.
近年来随着医疗领域数字化、信息化建设的加速推进,人工智能的应用越来越广泛,在眼科医学方面尤为突出。婴幼儿处于视觉系统发育的关键时期,此时发生的眼病往往会造成不可逆的视功能损伤,带来沉重的家庭和社会负担。然而,由于婴幼儿群体的特殊性以及小儿眼科医生的短缺,开展大规模小儿眼病筛查工作十分困难。最新研究表明:人工智能在先天性白内障、先天性青光眼、斜视、早产儿视网膜病变以及视功能评估等领域已经得到相关应用,在多种婴幼儿眼病的早期筛查、诊断分期、治疗建议等方面都有令人瞩目的表现,有效解决了许多临床难点与痛点。但目前婴幼儿眼科人工智能仍然不如成年人眼科发展充分,亟须进一步的探索和研发。
In recent years, with the acceleration of digitalization and informatization in medical field, artificial intelligence (AI) is more and more widely applied, especially in ophthalmology. Infants are in the critical period of visual development, during which eye diseases can lead to irreversible visual impairment and bring heavy burden to family and society. Due to the particularity of infants and the shortage of pediatric ophthalmologists, it is challenging to carry out large-scale screening for eye diseases of infants. According to the latest studies, AI has been studied and applied in the fields of congenital cataract, congenital glaucoma, strabismus, amblyopia, retinopathy of prematurity, and evaluation of visual function, and it has achieved remarkable performance in the early screening, diagnosis stage and treatment suggestions, solving many clinical difficulties and pain points effectively. However, AI for infantile ophthalmology is not as developed as for adult ophthalmology, so it needs further exploration and development.
神经营养性角膜病变是一种与角膜神经退行性改变有关的疾病,表现为角膜神经的知觉和营养功能受损,导致角膜上皮缺损、角膜溃疡和角膜穿孔。目前对神经营养性角膜病变的主要治疗方式有药物治疗、非手术干预治疗和手术治疗,但是对于重度病变患者行药物治疗、非手术干预治疗通常效果不佳。对未恢复角膜神经营养功能的患者行角膜移植术,可能导致角膜移植术后上皮持续不愈合,因此恢复角膜神经营养功能是该类患者复明的重要前提。角膜神经移植术是重度神经营养性角膜病变患者恢复角膜神经营养功能,提高角膜知觉,改善角膜透明度的重要和有效的治疗方法。角膜神经移植术通过将具有正常功能的供体神经移植到麻痹眼角膜缘周围,使神经末梢重新长入角膜基质,恢复角膜知觉功能。随着角膜神经移植术的术式的不断改进,其良好的术后效果和优点已经渐渐凸显。文章基于作者结合团队在角膜神经移植术方面经验结合近年研究进展阐述了神经营养性角膜病变的治疗手段和不同术式在角膜神经移植术中的应用,并进行展望。
Neurotrophic keratopathy is a disease related to degenerative changes in corneal nerves, resulting in impaired sensory and nutritive functions of corneal nerves. This leads to corneal epithelial defects, corneal ulcers, and corneal perforation. Currently, the main treatment modalities include pharmacotherapy, non-surgical interventions, and surgical treatment. However, drug therapy and non-surgical interventions often yield unsatisfactory results for severe neurotrophic keratopathy patients. Performing corneal transplantation in patients with unrecovered corneal sensation may result in persistent epithelial defect. Therefore, the restoration of corneal sensation is a crucial prerequisite for visual rehabilitation. Corneal neurotization emerges as an important and effective therapeutic approach for severe cases of neurotrophic keratopathy, aiming to restore corneal sensation and enhance corneal transparency. The procedure involves transplanting nerves from a donor with normal sensory function to the paralyzed sub-Tenon perilimbal space, allowing nerve endings to regenerate into the corneal stroma and restoring corneal sensory function. With continuous improvements in the technique of corneal neurotization, its favorable postoperative outcomes and advantages are becoming increasingly evident. This article, based on the team's experience in corneal neurotization, elaborates on the treatment modalities for neurotrophic keratopathy and the application and prospects of various surgical techniques in corneal neurotization.

青光眼是全球首位不可逆性致盲性眼病,其特征是视网膜神经节细胞(retina ganglion cells, RGCs)的退行性改变,对全球经济和健康造成了重大影响。其病理变化的分子及生物机制尚不明确,目前青光眼手术和药物治疗仍然局限于将眼压控制在正常范围。小梁网作为房水排出的重要途径,是眼压控制的关键一环。眼压改变引起的视网膜退行性改变是青光眼重要病理过程之一。小梁网及视网膜的体外模型构建是研究青光眼发生发展的主要研究方法。三维培养技术可以使细胞在体外形成一定的空间结构,有利于细胞-细胞及细胞-环境的相互作用,相比传统二维培养,三维培养更加接近体内细胞的生理环境,对于研究疾病的病理生理变化及高通量药物筛选具有重要意义,同时,三维培养更有利于对细胞空间构象变化及其力学性质改变进行研究。三维打印等新技术也在三维细胞培养中有所应用,为三维定制化培养提供技术基础。文章综述了小梁网及视网膜细胞三维培养在青光眼基础研究中的应用研究进展,旨在为进一步探究青光眼病理生理机制提供新的思路。
Glaucoma is the world's first irreversible blinding eye disease, characterized by degenerative changes in retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), which have a significant impact on the global economy and health. The molecular and biological mechanisms of its pathological changes are still unclear. At present, glaucoma surgery and drug therapy are still limited to controlling the intraocular pressure in the normal range. Three-dimensional culture technology can enable cells to form a certain spatial structure in vitro, which is conducive to cell-cell and cell-environment interactions. Compared with traditional two-dimensional culture, three-dimensional culture technology is closer to the physiological environment of cells in vivo, which is of great significance for the study of pathophysiological changes of diseases and high-throughput drug screening. This review discusses the application of trabecular mesh and three-dimensional culture of retinal cells in the basic research of glaucoma, aiming to provide new ideas for further exploring the pathophysiological mechanism of glaucoma.
糖尿病性黄斑水肿(diabetic macular edema, DME)是糖尿病最常见和最严重的并发症之一,也是中青年劳动人群常见的致盲原因。DME病理生理机制复杂,是多种因素相互作用的结果,控制这些危险因素是降低发病率的关键。DME是全身病相关性眼病,其发生与发展受众多危险因素的影响,但此前文献对其总结不足,本文从全身因素及眼部因素两个方面就DME的危险因素进行综述。全身危险因素主要包括血糖控制欠佳、糖尿病病程长、高血压、血脂代谢紊乱、肥胖、肾功能异常、妊娠状态、降糖药物使用、贫血、阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停低通气综合征、遗传因素、吸烟、饮酒、高血钙、低血镁等;而其眼部危险因素主要包括白内障、青光眼及玻璃体切割术、全视网膜激光光凝术、合并视网膜静脉阻塞和相关细胞因子等。深入认识和理解这些危险因素,有助于更好地预防和早期治疗DME,同时为治疗糖尿病视网膜病变过程中控制DME进展提供指引和参考。但是,其中一部分因素还存在一定争议,更多的DME危险因素仍有待进一步探索,期望在不久的将来,更多基础和前瞻性临床研究为DME危险因素及治疗提供高质量的证据。
Diabetic macular edema (DME) is one of the most common and severe complications of diabetes, and it is a leading cause of blindness in the working-age population. The pathophysiology of DME is complex, resulting from the interplay of various factors. Controlling these risk factors is crucial in reducing the incidence of DME. As a systemic diseaserelated ocular condition, the onset and progression of DME are influenced by numerous risk factors. However, previous literature has provided insufficient summaries of these factors. This review aims to summarize the risk factors for DME from both systemic and ocular perspectives. The systemic risk factors primarily include poor glycemic control, prolonged duration of diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, obesity, renal dysfunction, pregnancy, the use of hypoglycemic medications, anemia, obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome, genetic factors, smoking, alcohol consumption, hypercalcemia, and hypomagnesemia. On the other hand, ocular risk factors include cataracts, glaucoma and vitrectomy, panretinal photocoagulation, coexisting retinal vein occlusion, and related cytokines. A deeper understanding of these risk factors will aid in the better prevention and early treatment of DME, while also providing guidance and reference for controlling the progression of DME during the treatment of diabetic retinopathy. However, some of these factors remain controversial, and additional DME risk factors still need to be explored. It is hoped that, in the near future, morefoundational and prospective clinical studies will provide high-quality evidence on DME risk factors and treatments.

The advance in the study on molecular mechanisms in this field depends on multidisciplinary collaboration.
Vision serves as the cornerstone of rountine human life activities, wherein approximately 80% of information is perceived visually. Eye diseases, however, frequently culminate in vision impairment or blindness, severely affecting the quality of life. Due to the obscurity of the underlying molecular mechanisms, therapeutic outcomes for various blinding eye diseases remain suboptimal. Over the past decade, the development of single-cell genomics technology has made it possible to obtain multi-dimensional insights into genomes, epigenomes, transcriptomes, and proteomes of tissues and organs at the single-cell level, providing a potent tool for elucidating the molecular mechanisms of eye diseases and advancing precision diagnosis. Meanwhile, single-cell genomics technology has also been harnessed in drug discovery and screening, promising to transform traditional drug development paradigm that is often characterized by high cost [1], time-consuming [2], and substantial failure rate. This review aims to describe the cutting-edge advances in single-cell omics technology and its applications in precision diagnosis of eye diseases as well as drug discovery and screening.
