Unilateral optic neuritis and thinning of retinal layers in the affected and unaffected eyes
Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose Multiple sclerosis (MS)‐related optic neuritis (ON) causes thinning of inner retinal layers. It remains unclear whether unilateral MSON also affects the unaffected contralateral eye. The purpose of this study was to compare macular retinal layer thicknesses in MS eyes with unilateral optic neuritis (MSON), their unaffected ...

Low‐contrast visual acuity versus low‐luminance visual acuity in choroideremia
Clinical and Experimental Optometry, EarlyView., 2020 Clinical relevance Choroideremia is a progressive X‐linked inherited rod‐cone dystrophy. Patients present with nyctalopia and progressive visual field loss, but visual acuity remains well preserved early on. This study showed that low‐luminance visual acuity may be a useful clinical outcome measure during earlier disease stages.
