DOI: 
10.7727/wimj.2017.058
Pages: 
Synopsis: 
Synopsis: Cataract is a common disease and the vision of patients cannot be effectively improved simply by the glaucoma surgery, so there is an effective way is required to treat that disease. The study designed to treat cataract by combined therapy which is phacoemulsification and trabeculectomy with glaucoma.

ABSTRACT

Objective: It is a common disease in clinic treatment and the vision of patients cannot be effectively improved simply by the glaucoma surgery.

Propolis and Caffeic Acid Phenethyl Ester Attenuates Nitrosative Stress in Lens Tissue in Radiation-induced Cataracts in Rats

Issue: 
Vol 69, Issue 5: 2021
DOI: 
10.7727/wimj.2015.445
Pages: 
362-7
Synopsis: 
The aim of this study was to investigate whether propolis and caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) prevent radiation-induced cataractogenesis. The results obtained in the study suggest that propolis and CAPE have free radical, scavenging activities in the irradiation-induced cataractogenesis.

 ABSTRACT

Objective: Eye morbidity is widely observed in patients receiving total body irradiation prior to bone marrow transplantation or radiotherapy for ocular or head and neck cancers. Cataract blindness is the major cause of preventable blindness worldwide, especially in the developing countries. The aim of this study was to investigate whether propolis and caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) prevent radiation-induced cataractogenesis.

Correlation of Cataract with Serum Lipids, Glucose and Antioxidant Activities: A Case-control Study

Issue: 
Vol 61, issue 3 (2012)
Pages: 
230–4
Synopsis: 
This paper compares lipids, fasting glucose and oxidative stress marker profiles in patients with cataract with healthy age/sex-matched controls. There are statistical differences between cases and controls in these categories.

ABSTRACT

Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between cataract development and serum lipids, glucose as well as antioxidants in a case-control study.
