Presentació A banda dels treballs d’investigació que es desenvolupen dins de la programació d’aquesta Càtedra de Recerca, ens agradaria destacar una fita important en l’àmbit de les publicacions científiques, l’article “Elastic properties of human lens zonules as a function of age in presbyopes.”, publicat a la revista d’investigació de la nostra especialitat que considerem més important Investigated Ophthalmology Visual Science, del que són autors Michael R, Mikielewicz M, Gordillo C, Montenegro GA, Pinilla Cortes L, Barraquer RI., tots ells de la nostra institució. Aquest és un treball en l'àmbit de Phacio Ersatz: el reemplaçament del material cristal.linià per tractar la presbícia després de la cirurgia de cataractes i recuperar l’acomodació. La presbícia és una condició relacionada amb l'edat degut principalment a la pèrdua d'acomodació del cristal·lí influenciada per diversos factors. El 100% de la població sofrirà de presbícia als 50 anys d'edat. A dia d'avui no existeix un tractament definitiu per a aquesta patologia. Així mateix hem establert noves col·laboracions amb l'Institut de Ciències Fotòniques (ICFO) a Castelldefels amb un projecte d'un sistema d'ablació làser sense inducció de dany tèrmic sobre el cristal·lí, que després serà sotmès a mesuraments en el nostre aparell d'assaig per estudiar els canvis biomecànics i òptics produïts, amb la finalitat d'investigar alternatives per restaurar l'acomodació. Al 2012 hem aconseguit publicar un total de 13 treballs en revistes indexades a Medline; 6 d'aquestes publicacions estan relacionades amb la retina i el segment posterior de l'ull. Dues publicacions en revistes importants s'han publicat com a fruit del nostre treball a la xarxa espanyola Redes Temáticas de Investigación Cooperativa (RETICS), integrada per diversos centres i grups d’investigació en biomedicina associats a l'Instituto de Salud Carlos III. Dins de l’àrea de keratoprotesi hem aconseguit una publicació a la segona revista europea més important “Acta Ophthalmologica”. Aquesta revista va triar una fotografia del nostre estudi per la seva portada del mes de setembre 2013. No voldríem acabar aquesta breu presentació sense deixar constància de la important feina desenvolupada pel nostre fòrum de debat, “Transparency Club”, que des de fa uns anys està col·laborant eficaçment en l’assessorament i el disseny d’estudis d’investigació, així com en la preparació de conferències per a ser exposades a congressos i reunions científiques.

1. Líneas de investigación 1.1 Cristalino, catarata y acomodación Reemplazamiento del material cristaliniano para recuperar la acomodación tras la cirugía de cataratas 1.1.1 Propiedades elásticas de las zonulas del cristalino humano

En el trabajo publicado describimos un dispositivo de ensayo para medir las propiedades biomecánicas del cristalino, zonulas y el cuerpo ciliar. Es un aparato de alta precisión diseñado y construido por nosotros que permite estiramientos del tejido ocular en pasos de 1,25 µm y mide fuerzas a nivel de 10 mN con una precisión de 0,1 mN. (Una fuerza de 5 mN corresponde a la fuerza de gravedad de un sujetapapeles de tamaño estándar.) Ensayos con este dispositivo son muy útiles para comprender el mecanismo de acomodación y evaluar diferentes tratamientos para restaurar la misma, es decir, se plantea una solución para la presbicia. En la publicación presentada utilizamos este dispositivo para medir las propiedades mecánicas de las zonulas que sujetan el cristalino. Conocer estas propiedades es importante para el desarrollo de técnicas de restauración de la acomodación. En nuestro estudio encontramos que la biomecánica de la zonula no presenta alteraciones importantes a partir de la presbicia. Esto permitiría en un futuro rellenar el saco capsular con polímeros blandos y ópticamente adecuados para sustituir la función del cristalino.

1.1.2 Tratamiento con láser para restablecer la acomodación La presbicia es una condición relacionada con la edad debido principalmente a la pérdida de acomodación del cristalino influenciada por diversos factores. El 100% de la población sufrirá de presbicia a los 50 años de edad. Al día de hoy no existe un tratamiento definitivo para este padecimiento. En colaboración con el Instituto de Ciencias Fotónicas en Castelldefels realizaos diferentes tratamientos con un sistema de ablación láser sin inducción de daño térmico sobre el cristalino, que luego será sometido a mediciones en nuestro aparato de ensayo para estudiar los cambios biomecánicos y ópticos producidos, con el fin de investigar alternativas para restaurar la acomodación.

1.2 Queratoprótesis, queratocono y superficie ocular 1.2.1 Aplicación de pruebas electrofisiológicas para keratoprotesis

The role of visual evoked potential and electroretinography in the preoperative assessment of osteo-keratoprosthesis or osteo-odonto-keratoprosthesis surgery Aline Lütz de Araujo,1, 3 Victor Charoenrook,1, 2 Maria Fideliz de la Paz,1, 2 Jose Temprano,2 Rafael I. Barraquer,1, 2 Ralph Michael1 1 Institut Universitari Barraquer, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain 2 Centro de Oftalmología Barraquer, Barcelona, Spain 3 Instituto de Oftalmologia de Porto Alegre, Porto Alegre, Brasil

Purpose: To determine the value of electroretinography (ERG) and visual evoked potential (VEP) in predicting visual outcome in patients undergoing osteo-keratoprosthesis (OKP) or osteo-odonto-keratoprosthesis (OOKP) surgery. Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study of 143 eyes in 101 patients who underwent OKP or OOKP surgery. The subjects underwent ERG, VEP testing, or both up to six months prior to surgery. The ERG and VEP results were classified into four categories based on wave amplitude, latency, and configuration. The main outcome was the maximum best corrected visual acuity (maxBCVA) reached at any time postoperatively. Results: One hundred thirty-four cases had undergone preoperative ERG, 82 VEP, and 73 both exams. The sensitivities of ERG and VEP to detect maxBCVA ≥ 0.05 was 68.5% and 87%, respectively, while the specificity was 63.2% for ERG and 47.4% for VEP. The maxBCVA was significantly better in patients with normal ERG (p=0.033) and those with normal VEP (p=0.048), once having defined appropriate normal and abnormal cut-off levels. When comparing fellow eyes in patients who underwent surgery in both eyes, maxBCVA was better in the eyes that had better VEP results (p=0.013). Conclusion: Eyes demonstrating normal ERG or VEP achieved better visual outcome than those with abnormal results. In addition, VEP proved instrumental in determining the eye with the best prognosis when comparing both eyes of a given patient.

Abstract Body:

Purpose: To study crystalline lenses from donors with Alzheimer's disease (AD) in order to evaluate the presence of cataract and beta-amyloid. Methods: We obtained 31 lenses from 17 donors with AD and 15 lenses from agematched controls provided by the Banco de Ojos para Tratamientos de la Ceguera (Barcelona, Spain). The controls included 7 donors with cortical cataracts and 8 donor with transparent lenses. All lenses were photographed in a dark field microscope. Histological sections were analysed with classical and a modified, more sensitive Congo red staining, thioflavin staining, and by immunohistochemestry. Brain tissue from a donor with AD and a cornea with a lattice dystrophy were used as controls for the staining techniques. Results: From the 17 donors with AD, 9 had cortical cataract and 8 did not have cataract. Classical and modified Congo red, and thioflavin staining were positive in the control tissues. Immunohistochemestry staining was positive in the brain tissue but not in the cornea sample. Every staining technique performed in the lenses from this study was negative for beta-amyloid. Conclusions: The results in our control tissues correspond well with known observations in the brain and cornea. The absence of staining of the AD and control lenses with the techniques employed makes us conclude that there is no classical amyloid in lenses from donors with AD and in control cortical cataracts.

Abstract Body:

Purpose: The aim of the present study is to investigate the effects of transportation simulations on the morphology, phenotype and viability of cultured human limbal epithelial cells (HLEC) subjected to four days of storage at 23°C. Reliable methods for cell transportation are becoming increasingly more important with the centralization of production units, due in part to strict regulatory demands imposed on tissue laboratories. Methods: HLEC cultured for 3 weeks were transferred to closed glass containers. The cultures were divided into five experimental groups, and all were subjected to four days of storage at 23° C in HEPES buffered Minimal Essential Medium (MEM) supplemented with antibiotics. Storage bottles containing cultured HLEC were completely filled with medium for groups 1-3 and 5, but for group 4 they were only ¾ full. Pluronic F-68, a water-soluble triblock copolymer with shear protecting properties, was added to the medium in group 5. Transportation simulations were initiated after 3 hours of storage. In group 1 (control group) HLEC cultures were stored but were not subjected to transportation simulations. In group 2 cultures were stored and agitated for 6 h at 200 rotations per minute (rpm) using an orbital shaker. HLEC cultures in groups 3, 4 and 5 were stored and subjected to orbital shaking at 200 rpm for 36 h. Cell morphology and phenotype were analysed by light microscopy and immunohistochemistry, respectively. A calcein-acetoxymethyl ester/ethidium homodimer-1 assay was used to assess cell viability. Results: HLEC morphology appeared unchanged in all but group 4, where the number of desmosomes and hemidesmosomes was significantly lower than the other groups. The number of cell layers (2.8 - 3.5), cell viability (96.4% - 97.5%), and cell phenotype (C/EBPβ, ABCG2, deltaNp63α, p63, Bmi-1, Caspase-3, Ck3, Ki67 and PCNA expression), did not demonstrate any significant differences between the five experimental groups. Conclusions: HLEC subjected to four days of storage at 23°C in HEPES-MEM are able to withstand long-term transportation simulations especially well when cell storage containers are completely filled with medium. We hypothesise that the lack of air above the medium in the container reduces mechanical stress, i.e. shearing forces exerted on cells.

BARRAQUER RI Institut Universitari Barraquer (Barcelona) ALFONSO J Author 2 Instituto Oftalmológico Fernandez-Vega (Oviedo) MURTA J Author 3 University of Coimbra (Coimbra) Abstract Intrastromal corneal segments (ICS) are a popular alternative for the treatment of keratoconus. However, its variability makes difficult a simple approach to ICS implantation. The SA.ANA classification of ICS implant modalities was developed to Purpose enable comparability between case series, with implications on the best ICS combinations for the different keratoconus patterns. A multicenter database was established including ICS implanted during the 2004 to 2011 period. Based on 1097 cases, a simple classification of ICS implantation modalities was Methods devised using 2 basic criteria: symmetry and axiality, whose combination results in 4 major types. The observed series was fitted into this framework. 2 equal ICS facing each other define symmetrical (S) implantation. Asymmetrical (A) means only 1 or 2 different ICS. Axial (A) implants are those placed with their center at the flatter astigmatism axis, while non-axial (NA) refers to those at an axis differing ≥30º from that of astigmatism. This results in 4 main types (SA, AA, SNA, ANA), while the Results asymmetric types can include 1 or 2 ICS (AA1, AA2, ANA1, ANA2). The most frequent modality was asymmetrical-axial (AA) totaling almost 70% of the implants. Symmetricaxial (SA) represent about 10%. The non-axial groups account for the remaining minority (20%). The SAANA classification employs simple criteria for a comprehensive description of the ICS implantation types. Identifying these types is a prerequisite for a meaningful comparison of the clinical results. This classification is also useful as a guideline to select Conclusions the best ICS combinations for a particular keratoconus case. While axial implantation constitutes 80% of the cases, the non-axial types may address special problems as noncoincident astigmatism & coma. Author 1

Authors MICHAEL R Institut Universitari Barraquer (Barcelona) VRENSEN G Author 2 Department of Ophthalmology, University of Leiden (Leiden) BARRAQUER RI Author 3 Institut Universitari Barraquer (Barcelona) Abstract Purpose To study the morphology of age-related cuneiform cortical cataracts. We evaluated the gross morphology, location, and fiber cell architecture of equatorial cortical opacities in the aging human lens. Using dark-field stereomicroscopy, we photographed donor lenses in toto and as thick slices. In Methods addition, we investigated the details of the fiber cell architecture using fluorescent staining for membranes and by scanning electron microscopy. We then combined our data with data from recent studies on lens viscoelasticity. We found that small cortical and cuneiform opacities are accompanied by changes Results in fiber structure and architecture mainly in the equatorial border zone between the lens nucleus and cortex. Because the lens cortex and nucleus have different viscoelastic properties in young and old lenses, we hypothesize that external forces during accommodation cause Conclusionsshear stress predominantly in this border zone. The location of the described changes suggests that these mechanical forces may cause fiber disorganization, small cortical opacities, and ultimately, cuneiform cataracts. Author 1

Abstract

Demonstration of different procedures for eye surface reconstruction and visual rehabilitation in complicated conditions. Case 1: LASIK photokeratomileusis is demonstrated in a case previously operated for penetrating keratoplasty. Case 2: Optico-reconstructive penetrating 11 mm keratoplasty performed in a case of bilateral keratoconus-keratoglobus. The fellow eye had been operated for 11 mm penetrating keratoplasty 20 years earlier, with good Methods result. Two years after the operation of the second eye opacification of the graft developed in the second eye due to irreversible homograft reaction. A second penetrating graft, 7.6 mm in diameter was performed in the center of the previous, opaque, graft. The procedure was combined with simultaneous extracapsular lens removal and IOL implantation. The excellent results of these three examples of complicated large penetrating corneal Results grafts are demonstrated in all three cases with video and slides. The prognosis of large diameter optico-reconstructive penetrating keratoplasties in apparently unfavourable situations can be definitely improved selecting appropriate surgical indications, combined with a meticoulus surgical technique, adequate Conclusions postoperative medication (local and systemic corticosteroids, cyclosporine A eye drops 2 %, immunosuppressors, topical cycloplegics, etc.)and rigurous postoperative follow-up control.
