PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of inter-eye osmolarity differences in relation to dry eye symptoms and other non-osmolar signs of dry eye disease. PATIENTS AND METHODS: One hundred ninety one participants who attended a larger interventional study of dry eye disease prior to and after cataract surgery were analyzed for dry eye disease (DED). Dry eye diagnostics were performed for all subjects according to the DEWS II criteria: tear osmolarity was collected from both eyes with the TearLab system, non-invasive Tear film break up time (NIKBUT) was obtained on the test eye with Keratograph and ocular surface staining (OSS) was evaluated using the Oxford schema...

REVIEW
Kristi Michels, Brenda L Bohnsack
Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome (ARS) is a rare congenital disease that is primarily characterized by ocular anterior segment anomalies but is also associated with craniofacial, dental, cardiac, and neurologic abnormalities. Over half of cases are linked with autosomal dominant mutations in either FOXC1 or PITX2 , which reflects the molecular role of these genes in regulating neural crest cell contributions to the eye, face, and heart. Within the eye, ARS is classically defined as the combination of posterior embryotoxon with iris bridging strands (Axenfeld anomaly) and iris hypoplasia causing corectopia and pseudopolycoria (Rieger anomaly)...

PURPOSE: To assess the readability and accountability of online patient education materials related to glaucoma diagnosis and treatment. METHODS: We conducted a Google search for 10 search terms related to glaucoma diagnosis and 10 search terms related to glaucoma treatment. For each search term, the first 10 patient education websites populated after Google search were assessed for readability and accountability. Readability was assessed using five validated measures: Flesch Reading Ease (FRE), Gunning Fog Index (GFI), Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level (FKGL), Simple Measure of Gobbledygook (SMOG), and New Dale-Chall (NDC)...

PURPOSE: Validation of the novel Lexitas modified NEI scale for use in assessment of corneal fluorescein staining. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A series of 18 illustrations and 14 clinical photographs depicting varying severity levels of corneal fluorescein staining were assessed by 3 independent examiners. Regions of the cornea were graded for staining severity based on 3 different grading scales: the original NEI staining scale (density-based scoring; 0-3 scale), a structured version of the NEI scale (dot-count scoring; 0-3 scale), and the Lexitas modified NEI staining scale (0-4 scale with half-point increments)...
