Scleral Fixation of Intraocular Lenses with Gore-Tex Suture: Refractive Outcomes and Comparison of Lens Power Formulas
TL;DR: For eyes undergoing pars plana vitrectomy with scleral-sutured IOL implantation, assumption of in-the-bag IOL position when calculating lens power leads to acceptable refractive outcomes.

Accumulation of Polyribosomes in Dendritic Spine Heads, But Not Bases and Necks, during Memory Consolidation Depends on Cap-Dependent Translation Initiation.
Linnaea E. Ostroff,Benjamin Botsford,Sofya Gindina,Kiriana K. Cowansage,Joseph E. LeDoux,Joseph E. LeDoux,Eric Klann,Charles A. Hoeffer +7 more
TL;DR: The results reveal that cap-dependent initiation is involved in local translation during learning and that local translational control varies with synapse type, and translation that occurs closest to individual synapses during memory formation is initiation dependent.

Delivering mobile eye care to underserved communities while providing training in ophthalmology to medical students: experience of the Guerrilla Eye Service
TL;DR: Medical student-led outreach programs under the supervision of an attending ophthalmologist can deliver regular eye care to underserved communities while providing referrals to a university clinic for those with advanced disease.
