A Novel Homozygous Nonsense Pathogenic Variant of the CPAMD8 Gene Associated With Congenital Microcoria

open access: yesClinical Genetics, Volume 109, Issue 3, Page 571-575, March 2026.
A novel CPAMD8 nonsense mutation c.2679C>G (p.Tyr893*) was identified in a patient with congenital microcoria, leading to reduced mRNA expression and predicted protein truncation. ABSTRACT Congenital microcoria (MCOR) is a rare inherited ocular disorder. Here, we describe a novel nonsense variant in the CPAMD8 gene in a patient with MCOR.

Rapid and Accurate Pressure Sensing Device for Direct Measurement of Intraocular Pressure. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
PurposeIntraocular pressure (IOP) is the primary modifiable risk factor for glaucoma. Current devices measure IOP via the dynamic response of the healthy cornea and do not provide the accurate IOP measurements for patients with altered corneal ...

From Aid Dependency to Self‐Reliance: Lessons From Sierra Leone and Rwanda's Strategies for Eliminating Preventable Blindness in Africa: A Perspective Study

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Preventable blindness remains a leading cause of disability in low‐income countries (LICs), with 91.5% of cases in Sierra Leone and 83.9% in Rwanda considered avoidable. Reliance on foreign aid has supported eye care development in Africa, yet has also fostered systemic dependency.

Assessing Effects of Riboflavin/UV‐A Cross‐Linking on Aqueous Outflow Facility, Corneal Biomechanics and Their Association With Intraocular Pressure

open access: yesJournal of Biophotonics, Volume 19, Issue 2, February 2026.
Our study demonstrates that UV cross‐linking (CXL) reduces outflow facility while increasing corneal elasticity across IOP levels of 20–40 mmHg, measured using direct manometry and non‐contact optical coherence elastography. These results highlight both parameters as potential indicators for evaluating CXL effectiveness and monitoring keratoconus ...

Filomicelle‐Embedded Composite Hydrogels for Localized Gelation Within the Anterior Chamber of the Eye

open access: yesSmall, Volume 22, Issue 7, 2 February 2026.
A composite hydrogel (C‐gel) incorporating PEG‐b‐PPS filomicelles enables localized in situ gelation and sustained nanocarrier release within the anterior chamber. The filamentous structure promotes spatial confinement of multi‐arm polymer crosslinking, even upon injection into large aqueous volumes, and gradually transitions into spherical micelles ...
