We thank Firth and associates for their interest in our article. They suggest that the mechanism behind the change in accommodation during binocular viewing among the patients with intermittent exotropia is the result of convergence accommodation, rath…
Delayed-Onset Symptomatic Hyphema After Ab Interno Trabeculotomy Surgery
Recently, the article “Delayed-Onset Symptomatic hyphema after ab interno trabeculotomy surgery” reported that 4.6% of 262 cases demonstrated postoperative spontaneous delayed-onset hyphema after Trabectome surgery. Median time to onset of the hyph…
Intravitreal Bevacizumab for Macular Complications From Retinal Arterial Macroaneurysms
Pichi and associates are to be congratulated for their study on the intravitreal use of bevacizumab for the therapy of retinal macroaneurysms. In their multicenter trial on 38 eyes, Pichi and associates applied bevacizumab intravitreally 3 times and ob…
