Early Detection of Incipient Retinal Pigment Epithelium Atrophy Overlying Drusen with Fundus Autofluorescence vs. Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmology, 2020
Purpose. This study aims to find out which tool, fundus autofluorescence (FAF) or spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), is more sensitive in detecting retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) demise overlying drusen and can, therefore, help ...

Interactive Image Analysis in Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) and Stargardt Disease (STGD) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The literature of the last three decades is replete with automatic methods for retinal image analysis. Acceptance has been limited due to post-processing or tuning requirements that may be just as time consuming as the original manual methods.

Visual Function Assessment in Geographic Atrophy: A Review

open access: yesClinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, Volume 54, Issue 2, Page 260-274, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Geographic atrophy (GA) causes significant vision impairment and reduction in vision‐related quality of life. Fundus autofluorescence (FAF) is the gold standard of structural assessment of GA but is a surrogate marker for vision loss, which can be assessed by tests of visual function and functional vision.

POSSIBILITIES OF MODERN IMAGING TECHNIQUES IN DIAGNOSTICS OF OPTIC NERVE DRUSEN (LITERATURE REVIEW)

open access: yesActa Biomedica Scientifica, 2016
With the introduction and development of new diagnostic techniques, the relevance of drusen of the optic nerve diagnostics is increasing. Existing imaging techniques alone or in their various combinations cannot allow to confirm optic nerve drusen in all

Abundant lipid and protein components of drusen. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Drusen are extracellular lesions characteristic of aging and age-related maculopathy, a major retinal disease of the elderly. We determined the relative proportions of lipids and proteins in drusen capped with retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and in RPE ...

The Proteomics of Drusen [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2014
The formation of extracellular deposits known as drusen below the macular region of the retina correlates with increased risk of severe visual loss from age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Inflammation and complement dysregulation contribute to AMD progression; however, disease mechanisms remain incompletely defined.

Intraocular Osseous Metaplasia in Norfolk Black Turkey (Meleagris gallopavo): Clinicopathological Characterization of a Rare Avian Condition

open access: yesVeterinary Ophthalmology, Volume 29, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Osseous metaplasia is a rare condition characterized by abnormal bone growth in soft tissues. Although documented in mammals, intraocular osseous metaplasia is uncommon in avian species and has been poorly characterized in turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo).
