TL;DR: The genetic architecture of POAG and AMD is investigated using genome-wide array data and it is found that the genetic correlation between sexes for POAG was likely to be less than 1, suggesting that differences of prevalence among genders may be partly due to heritable factors.

TL;DR: The effective early application of a cyanoacrylate glue corneal patch can aid in the management of small corneals perforations, corneAL melts and wound leaks and avoid the need for tectonic penetrating keratoplasty.

TL;DR: Although anterior capsule tears remain a concern, the safety of femtosecond‐assisted cataract surgery in terms of posterior capsule complications was equal to that of phacoemulsification.

TL;DR: Laser anterior capsulotomy integrity seems to be compromised by postage-stamp perforations and additional aberrant pulses, possibly because of fixational eye movements, which can lead to an increased rate of anterior capsule tears, and extra care should be taken during surgery after femtosecond laser pretreatment has been performed.

TL;DR: The safety and efficacy of the Catalys femtosecond laser‐assisted cataract surgery system compared with conventional phacoemulsification cataracts extraction is investigated.
