Rapid Capsular Contraction with Secondary Intraocular Lens Dislocation Associated with Unspecified Rod-Cone Dystrophy: A Case Report

open access: yesCase Reports in Ophthalmology, 2018
Purpose: We report an unusual case of rapid and severe anterior capsular contraction associated with secondary intraocular lens (IOL) dislocation following cataract surgery in a patient with unspecified rod-cone dystrophy.

Low‐contrast visual acuity versus low‐luminance visual acuity in choroideremia

open access: yesClinical 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.

Lack of the antioxidant enzyme methionine sulfoxide reductase A in mice impairs RPE phagocytosis and causes photoreceptor cone dysfunction

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2021
Methionine sulfoxide reductase A (MsrA) is a widely expressed antioxidant enzyme that counteracts oxidative protein damage and contributes to protein regulation by reversing oxidation of protein methionine residues.

Mutations in CNNM4 Cause Recessive Cone-Rod Dystrophy with Amelogenesis Imperfecta [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Cone-rod dystrophies are inherited dystrophies of the retina characterized by the accumulation of deposits mainly localized to the cone-rich macular region of the eye. Dystrophy can be limited to the retina or be part of a syndrome.

Various phenotypes of autosomal dominant cone-rod dystrophy with cone-rod homeobox mutation in two Chinese families [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Ophthalmology, 2022
AIM: To present the clinical manifestations of 5 autosomal dominant cone-rod dystrophy (adCORD) patients from two Chinese families with cone-rod homeobox (CRX) mutation (p.R41W), and to explore the clinical heterogeneity of adCORD with CRX mutation (p ...

The origins of the full-field flash electroretinogram b-wave

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2023
The electroretinogram (ERG) measures the electrical activity of retinal neurons and glial cells in response to a light stimulus. Amongst other techniques, clinicians utilize the ERG to diagnose various eye diseases, including inherited conditions such as

RNA interference gene therapy in dominant retinitis pigmentosa and cone-rod dystrophy mouse models caused by GCAP1 mutations

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2014
RNA interference (RNAi) knockdown is an efficacious therapeutic strategy for silencing genes causative for dominant retinal dystrophies. To test this, we used self-complementary (sc) AAV2/8 vector to develop an RNAi-based therapy in two dominant retinal ...

An autopsy study of a familial oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy (OPMD) with distal spread and neurogenic involvement [PDF]

open access: yes, 1981
An 81-year-old man from a family with a history of oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy (OPMD) involving 6 members over 4 generations is described. The patient first noted drooping of his eyelids at the age of 65.
