TL;DR: It is suggested that interobserver and intraobserver variability in assessment of upper lid ptosis using a standard measurement protocol is low and clinically acceptable when the technique of assessment is standardised.
Abstract: AIM—The aim of this study was to assess the repeatability and reproducibility by physicians of upper lid measurements and to investigate the influence of clinical experience on the learning curve effect.
METHODS—Both eyes of 22 outpatients were assessed for three basic measures of ptosis: marginal reflex distance (MRD) for upper and lower lids, upper lid skin crease (SC), and levator function (LF). Patients with variable eyelid positions were excluded. The patients were measured twice by a consultant and once by each of a clinical fellow, a specialist registrar, and a senior house officer in random order. Each observer was masked to their colleagues' results and followed a standard measurement protocol. Data were analysed using Bland-Altman plots.
RESULTS—Consultant repeatability was high and consistent, the median difference between measures being 0 for each of the four parameters. Clinically acceptable reproducibility was shown in all measurements for even the least experienced physician and was particularly consistent for extreme observations. There was evidence of a learning curve effect.
CONCLUSIONS—These results suggest that interobserver and intraobserver variability in assessment of upper lid ptosis using a standard measurement protocol is low and clinically acceptable when the technique of assessment is standardised.

TL;DR: The oculome test diagnoses a comprehensive range of genetic conditions affecting the development of the eye, potentially replacing protracted and costly multidisciplinary assessments and allowing for faster targeted management.

TL;DR: Enlargement of the infraorbital nerve and canal is rare and strongly suggests a diagnosis of RLH or IgG4-related disease, especially in the presence of ipsilateral extraocular muscle enlargement, sinus disease, or focal orbital disease.

TL;DR: The number of FK cases has increased between 2007 and 2014, with an increase in the proportion of filamentary fungal infections from the pre-2007 data, which is due to CL-associated filamentary FK.
