Miniature lens system implantation for advanced age-related macular degeneration (IPG565)
Evidence-based recommendations on miniature lens system implantation for advanced age-related macular degeneration. This involves implanting an artificial lens system into 1 eye only.
Insertion of a subretinal prosthesis system for retinitis pigmentosa (IPG537)
Evidence-based recommendations on insertion of a subretinal prosthesis system for retinitis pigmentosa. This involves performing a vitrectomy and implanting a microchip underneath the macula using a transscleral, then subretinal approach.
Insertion of an epiretinal prosthesis for retinitis pigmentosa (IPG519)
Evidence-based recommendations on insertion of an epiretinal prosthesis for retinitis pigmentosa. This involves inserting an implant into the eye that receives data from a small camera on the person's glasses and then stimulates healthy cells in the retina to see basic images.

Suture fixation of acute disruption of the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis (IPG521)
Evidence-based recommendations on suture fixation of acute disruption of the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis. This involves threading a suture through a tunnel made in the bones (tibia and fibula) and tying the ends together to fix the joint.
Optical coherence tomography to guide percutaneous coronary intervention (IPG481)
Evidence-based recommendations on optical coherence tomography to guide percutaneous coronary intervention. This involves using near-infrared light to produce high-resolution images of blood vessel walls.
Selective internal radiation therapy for primary hepatocellular carcinoma (IPG460)
Evidence-based recommendations on selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) for primary hepatocellular carcinoma. This involves infusion of microspheres loaded with yttrium-90, which aims to deliver radiation directly into the tumour, minimising the risk of radiation damage to healthy surrounding tissues.
