“…[65] As IOP can fluctuate due to postural changes or personal circadian rhythm, the one-time IOP recording of GAT greatly challenges the ability of both patients and clinicians to holistically evaluate IOP trends. [66] Moreover, as GAT is a highly complex optical instrument, only trained professionals are able to provide such measurements. In recent years, smart contact lenses as an alternative for IOP monitoring devices have gained major popularity due to the convenience and accuracy of the lenses provide.…”

This comprehensive review delves into a unique intersection of hydrogels as smart molecules and their transformative applications in ophthalmology. Beginning with the foundational definition, properties, and classification of hydrogels, the review explores their synthesis and responsive capabilities. Specific applications examined encompass topical drug delivery, contact lenses, intravitreal drug delivery, ocular adhesives, vitreous substitutes, and cell‐based therapy. A methodical analysis, including an overview of relevant ocular structures and a comparative evaluation of hydrogel‐based solutions against traditional treatments, is conducted. Additionally, potential constraints, translation challenges, knowledge gaps, and research areas are identified. Our methodical approach, guided by an extensive literature review from 2017 to 2023, illuminates the unprecedented opportunities offered by hydrogels, along with pinpointing areas for further inquiry to facilitate their transition into clinical practice.

Ultrasonographic and histopathologic features associated with common ocular diseases in donkeys (Equus asinus)

et al. 2023

There is a lack of reports describing ultrasonographic and histopathologic features of ocular diseases in donkeys. The present study aimed to document ultrasonographic and histopathologic changes associated with common ocular diseases in donkeys. The study included 45 donkeys (64 eyes) with ocular diseases that had reached the end of their working lives and requested to be used for educational and research purposes. Complete clinical, ophthalmic, ultrasonographic, gross pathologic and histopathologic examinations were included. Ocular abnormalities were documented, tabulated, and analyzed. Seventy-five ocular abnormalities were diagnosed with multiple involvements within the same eye including anterior uveitis (n = 13; 22.8%), cataract (n = 57; 76%), retinal detachment (n = 3; 4%), lens and phthisis bulbi (n = 2; 2.6%). Descriptive ultrasonographic findings of ocular abnormalities were included. Gross pathologic and histopathology findings confirmed the ultrasonography findings. Ultrasonography provided a clinically useful tool offering insight into detailed intraocular structures especially with opacification of the dioptric structures of the eye.

There is a paucity of information in the veterinary literature regarding ophthalmic disease in the donkey. Uveitis is a potentially blinding condition, which warrants prompt diagnosis and treatment. Clinical signs associated with uveitis include epiphora, aqueous flare, miosis, corneal oedema, keratic precipitates and vitreal inflammation, posterior synechiae formation, cataract formation, lens luxation or subluxation, peripapillary scarring and retinal detachment. Treatment is aimed at suppressing the uveal tract inflammation, through the use of both topical and systemic medications. Surgical intervention may also be considered, with appropriate patient selection. This article describes the clinical signs, diagnosis and management of uveitis in the donkey.
