Surgery for idiopathic epiretinal membrane [PDF]

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2019
Epiretinal membrane is an abnormal sheet of avascular fibrocellular tissue that develops on the inner surface of the retina. Epiretinal membrane can cause impairment of sight as a consequence of progressive distortion of retinal architecture.To determine the effects of surgery compared to no intervention for epiretinal membrane.We searched the Cochrane

Repeatability of SpotChecks contrast sensitivity test in macular disease

Optometry and Vision Science, Volume 103, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose SpotChecks is an accessible contrast sensitivity test with good repeatability in healthy adults. This study compared its intra‐visit repeatability with the near Pelli–Robson test in adults with macular disease. Methods One eye from 29 adults with macular disease (mean age 71 ± 13 years) underwent high‐contrast logMAR acuity and two ...

Foundation Models in Diagnosis of Ophthalmic Diseases: Construction and Application

Eye &ENT Research, Volume 3, Issue 2, Page 45-58, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Artificial intelligence holds promise for addressing the uneven distribution of medical resources across different regions. Compared with convolutional neural network models, foundation models offer significant advantages: on one hand, their pre‐training does not rely on massive labeled data; on the other hand, they possess the capability to ...
