Vitreous Proteomics of Patients Suffering From Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome

Determination of proteins and their levels in the vitreous of eyes with or without pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PEX)

Corneal Biomechanics, Optical Properties and Anterior Segment Structural Features in Patients With Pseudoexfoliation

The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of pseudoexfoliation syndrome on corneal biomechanics, optical clarity of the cornea, and anterior segment structural features.

The Correlation Between Pupil Size and Retinal Nerve Fibers Changes in Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome.

To study the possible correlation between pupillary diameter before and after dilation with intraocular pressure, lens stability and glaucomatous damage (represented by optic disc changes using cup to disc ratio and OCT changes in retinal nerve fiber layer and ganglion cell complex) in each eye of the same patient with PEX.

Outcome of Two Surgical Methods for IOLImplantation in Eyes With Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome

The aim of this study is to compare the surgical outcomes of the two IOL implantation methods for eyes with cataract and PEX in a single-center and with highly experienced surgeons. The goal is to acquire relevant information regarding these two IOL implantation techniques, which will help surgeons to decide which approach to choose, ultimately resulting in a benefit for patients with PEX syndrome who require cataract surgery. The main questions are: Is there a difference in lens tilt and decentration between the both methods. Is there a difference in the frequency and amount of capsular phimosis between the both methods.
