Background Subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT) in highly myopic eyes was found to be correlated with increasing age, refractive error (spherical equivalent), and axial length. Which factor is the most significant predictor of SFCT remains controversial.

Lens-induced myopization and intraocular pressure in young guinea pigs
Background Intraocular pressure (IOP) is an important physiological measure of the eye and is associated with some ocular disorders. We aimed to assess the influence of topical beta blocker-induced IOP reduction on lens-induced axial elongation in young ...

Vertical Macular Asymmetry Measures Derived From SD-OCT for Detection of Early Glaucoma. [PDF]
PurposeTo test the hypothesis that vertical asymmetry in macular ganglion cell/inner plexiform layer (GCIPL) thickness can improve detection of early glaucoma.MethodsSixty-nine normal eyes and 101 glaucoma eyes had macular imaging with spectral-domain ...

Audit on A-scan use prior to cataract surgery in Mater Dei Hospital [PDF]
The A-scan is a method of measurement of the ocular axial length (L). It is coupled with corneal curvature keratometry (K) readings so that one can measure the required power (P) of an intraocular lens (IOL) used for cataract surgery.

Axial length measurement techniques in pediatric eyes with cataract
Globe axial length (AL) in children is commonly measured using either contact or immersion technique. Office measurement of AL can be difficult in young children and infants and must often be done under anesthesia in an eye that is unable to cooperate with precise fixation and centration.

Metformin mediates mitochondrial quality control in Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) fibroblasts carrying mtDNA mutations. At therapeutic levels, metformin activates AMPK signaling to restore mitochondrial dynamics by promoting fusion and restraining fission, while preserving mitochondrial mass, enhancing autophagy/mitophagy and biogenesis ...

Lessons Learned From a Delayed‐Start Trial of Modafinil for Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Disease
ABSTRACT Objective Freezing of gait (FOG) in people with Parkinson's disease (PwPD) is debilitating and has limited treatments. Modafinil modulates beta/gamma band activity in the pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN), like PPN deep brain stimulation. We therefore tested the hypothesis that Modafinil would improve FOG in PwPD.
