Impact of obesity on peripapillary choroidal thickness, macular choroidal thickness, and lamina cribrosa morphology

open access: yesPhotodiagnosis and Photodynamic Therapy, 2023
Obesity is known to be a significant risk factor for many ocular diseases. In order to understand the mechanism of obesity-related ocular diseases, we examined the lamina cribrosa morphology, peripapillary choroidal thickness (PPCT), and macular choroidal thickness (MCT) in obese women using optical coherence tomography (OCT).This comparative cross ...

Modular Control of PEG‐Poly(2‐Oxazoline) Co‐Assembly Enables Tunable Aggregate Properties for Intraocular Pressure Management

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A thermo‐responsive poly(2‐oxazoline)‐based injectable formulation is developed to modulate intraocular pressure (IOP) in both normal and hypotonic eyes. By adjusting the PEG content, the aggregation behavior is finely tuned, enabling IOP elevation without long‐term deposition.
