Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty and Penetrating Keratoplasty for Keratoconus: A Claims-Based Analysis

Glory E. E. Mgboji et al.

Summary: The purpose of this study was to report the demographic and clinical characteristics of US patients with keratoconus undergoing DALK or PK, as well as the complication rates for the two procedures. A retrospective review of health records was conducted and the results showed that the complication rates for DALK and PK were low at 1 year and beyond.

The research progress on the molecular mechanism of corneal cross-linking in keratoconus treatment

Qingyu Yang et al.

Summary: Keratoconus (KC) is a corneal anomaly characterized by a cone-like bulge and thinning of the cornea. Corneal cross-linking (CXL) is the preferred treatment option for early KC, but postoperative complications have been reported. To maintain effectiveness while avoiding negative effects, studying the molecular mechanism of CXL in KC treatment is necessary.

Clinical trials targeting the gut-microbiome to effect ocular health: a systematic review

Matthew W. Russell et al.

Summary: Clinical trials targeting the gut microbiome to mitigate ocular disease are on the horizon, and a review of clinical data is essential to determine future directions in this promising field. Recent clinical trials support the plausibility of a gut-eye axis and may form the basis for novel clinical interventions.

Systemic Associations with Keratoconus

Prasida Unni et al.

Summary: Keratoconus is a progressive disease that causes thinning and steepening of the cornea, leading to vision loss. The underlying mechanisms of keratoconus development are largely unknown. The literature suggests a variety of associations between keratoconus and systemic diseases, with atopy, Down syndrome, and connective tissue diseases being the most frequently cited. Furthermore, Diabetes Mellitus has been studied as a possible protective factor against keratoconus. This review summarizes the evidence for and against these systemic conditions and their implications for keratoconus patients.

Perturbations of the ocular surface microbiome and their effect on host immune function

Chih-Chiun Jamie Chang et al.

Summary: This review examines the ocular surface microbiome and host immunity, and explores the hypothesis that disruption of a healthy microbiome may lead to inflammation and infection on the ocular surface. It is found that the ocular surface of healthy individuals is colonized by stable, pauci-microbial communities dominated by Corynebacterium, Propionibacterium, and Staphylococcus. Animal studies suggest that commensal microbes interact with toll-like receptors to regulate the immune system, promoting homeostasis and protecting against infection. Factors such as contact lens wear, lens wash solutions, and preserved topical medications can disrupt the native microbiome and alter the diversity and composition of microbes on the ocular surface.

The Link Between Gastrointestinal Microbiome and Ocular Disorders

Rashed Alfuzaie

Summary: The gut-eye axis is considered to be a factor in various eye pathologies. This review analyzes papers from PubMed on this topic. Bacterial commensals can either protect by regulating the immune system or cause damage to the gut mucosal wall and induce inflammation. The balance between the two is crucial for maintaining eye health. Imbalances have been associated with ophthalmologic conditions. The use of probiotics, dietary modifications, antibiotics, and fecal microbiota transplant in mice with similar pathologies has shown to reverse disease progression or prevent its advancement. Clinical trials are currently being conducted to investigate their clinical significance in patients with diseases.

Microbiome and immune-mediated dry eye: a review

Arjun Watane et al.

Summary: This review summarises key articles exploring the relationships between the gut and ocular surface microbiomes (OSMs) and immune-mediated dry eye. The gut microbiome is linked to the immune system and can play a role in the severity of autoimmune diseases. Information regarding the relationships between OSM and dry eye is limited, but microbiome manipulation has emerged as a therapeutic strategy for immune-mediated dry eye.

Eye rubbing in the aetiology of keratoconus: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Srujana Sahebjada et al.

Summary: Eye rubbing is consistently associated with keratoconus, but current evidence is limited to a small number of case-control studies that are heterogeneous and of sub-optimal methodological quality. Further research is needed to explore the intricate relationship between eye rubbing and the induction, ongoing progression, and severity of keratoconus.
