  1. Cataracts in adults: management (NG77)

    This guideline covers managing cataracts in adults aged 18 and over. It aims to improve care before, during and after cataract surgery by optimising service organisation, referral and surgical management, and reducing complications. It further aims to improve the availability of information for people with cataracts before, during and after cataract surgery.

  2. Serious eye disorders (QS180)

    This quality standard covers the diagnosis and management of cataracts, glaucoma and age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and the prevention of sight loss. It describes high-quality care in priority areas for improvement.

  3. Implantation of accommodating intraocular lenses for cataract (IPG209)

    Evidence-based recommendations on implantation of accommodating intraocular lenses for cataract. This involves removing the clouded natural lens of the eye and replacing it with an accommodating lens to allow focusing on near and distant objects.

  4. Implantation of multifocal (non-accommodative) intraocular lenses during cataract surgery (IPG264)

    Evidence-based recommendations on the implantation of multifocal (non-accommodative) intraocular lenses during cataract surgery. This involves replacing the clouded lens with an artificial one with areas of different focusing power to allow near and distant objects to be seen.

  5. Aflibercept for treating visual impairment caused by macular oedema after branch retinal vein occlusion (TA409)

    Evidence-based recommendations on aflibercept (Eylea) for treating visual impairment caused by macular oedema after branch retinal vein occlusion.

  6. Dexamethasone intravitreal implant for the treatment of macular oedema secondary to retinal vein occlusion (TA229)

    Evidence-based recommendations on dexamethasone intravitreal implant (Ozurdex) for treating macular oedema following retinal vein occlusion in adults.

  7. Trabecular stent bypass microsurgery for open-angle glaucoma (IPG575)

    Evidence-based recommendations on trabecular stent bypass microsurgery for open-angle glaucoma. This involves inserting a hollow metal tube (stent) into the eye, to improve drainage of fluid from the eye.

  8. Adalimumab and dexamethasone for treating non-infectious uveitis (TA460)

    Evidence-based recommendations on adalimumab (Humira) and dexamethasone (Ozurdex) for treating non-infectious uveitis in adults.

  9. Epiretinal brachytherapy for wet age-related macular degeneration (IPG415)

    Evidence-based recommendations on epiretinal brachytherapy for wet age related macular degeneration. This involves using radiation therapy used to destroy the new blood vessels.

  10. Retrobulbar irradiation for thyroid eye disease (IPG148)

    Evidence-based recommendations on retrobulbar irradiation for thyroid eye disease. This involves using radiation to target the tissue behind the eyeball and reduce inflammation.

  11. Arteriovenous crossing sheathotomy for branch retinal vein occlusion (IPG334)

    Evidence-based recommendations on arteriovenous crossing sheathotomy for branch retinal vein occlusion. This involves cutting the sheath around the vessels and physically separating them where they cross to improve blood flow through the vein.

  12. Artificial iris insertion for congenital aniridia (IPG675)

    Evidence-based recommendations on artificial iris insertion for congenital aniridia. This involves inserting an artificial iris into the eye.

  13. Holoclar for treating limbal stem cell deficiency after eye burns (TA467)

    Evidence-based recommendations on Holoclar (a layer of cells grown from cells taken from your own eye) for treating limbal stem cell deficiency in adults with eye burns.

  14. Fluocinolone acetonide intravitreal implant for treating recurrent non-infectious uveitis (TA590)

    Evidence-based recommendations on fluocinolone acetonide intravitreal implant (Iluvien) for treating recurrent non-infectious uveitis in adults.

  15. Artificial iris insertion for acquired aniridia (IPG674)

    Evidence-based recommendations on artificial iris insertion for acquired aniridia. This involves inserting an artificial iris into the eye.
