The study's primary endpoints were to look at increasing Schirmer's scores, as well as eye discomfort score.

Catching up after ASCRS 2022, Ora's Caitlin Black, senior director and therapeutic area head of medical devices, talks about the next generation of ophthalmic device therapies and diagnostics, clinical trial updates and new innovations that are most exciting for presbyopia treatment.

Penny Asbell, MD, FACS, MBA, discusses “Antibiotic Resistance among Ocular Staphylococcal Pathogens: Longitudinal Trends in the ARMOR Study."

Takeaway: there doesn't seem to be a specific dry eye phenotype that does better or worse.

The OpRegen trial is a cell therapy trial, looking to explore potential safety and efficacy for patients with advanced dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

Diana Do, MD, professor of ophthalmology at Stanford's Byers Eye Institute, presents research on a newly developed, novel patient-reported outcome instrument (PRO) for patients who have proliferative diabetic retinopathy and who are undergoing treatment with either intravitreal anti-VEGF therapy, or panretinal photocoagulation.

Alex Dastgheib, MD, ABO, discusses the findings of the paper, "325 Cases of Phacoemulsification in Blind Cataracts," presented at the 2022 ASCRS conference in Washington, DC. The paper won the Challenging Cases session during the meeting.

Newer generation formulas generally outperformed older generation formulas, with SRK/T performing the best of older formulas, especially when using TK values.

Jennifer I. Lim, MD, FARVO, FASRS, reviews the 2-year results of the YOSEMITE and RHINE trials, outlining the efficacy, durability, and safety of faricimab in diabetic macular edema.

Older generation non-LVC formulas show marked improvement upon using TK values vs K, while multivariable non-LVC formulas did not consistently improve.

Jonathan Solomon, MD, shares his personal experience using the Beyeonics One exoscope, highlighting what makes this tool stand out.

Results concluded that K did better than TK in a variety of situations.

Edward Hu, MD, PhD, looked at 812 toric IOLs utilized of various platforms, concluding a low total toric rotation rate at 2.1%.

The study assesses and compares the accuracy of IOL formulas using keratometry (K) and total keratometry (TK) values obtained by a swept-source OCT biometer (IOL Master 700) in eyes with previous PKP prior to cataract surgery.

There is considerable variability in variables when measuring the eyes with both biometers, which may affect formula performance and postoperative refractive predictions when using formulas that utilize values like interior chamber depth and lens thickness.
