Crosstalk between the Rod Outer Segments and Retinal Pigmented Epithelium in the Generation of Oxidative Stress in an In Vitro Model

open access: yesCells, 2023
Dysfunction of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is associated with several diseases characterized by retinal degeneration, such as diabetic retinopathy (DR).

Junctional sensitivity and atrophy progression rate of geographic atrophy secondary to age‐related macular degeneration

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To determine the relationship between the baseline junctional retinal sensitivity measured with microperimetry and the atrophy progression rate in eyes with geographic atrophy (GA) secondary to age‐related macular degeneration. Methods In this prospective cohort study, patients with GA were examined with fundus autofluorescence (FAF ...

Retinal dystrophies simulating geographic atrophy: A diagnostic challenge

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Geographic atrophy (GA) is the chronic loss of retinal pigment epithelium, photoreceptors and choriocapillaris, marking the dry late stage of age‐related macular degeneration (AMD). GA prevalence is expected to rise in the upcoming decades. Advanced GA leads to central scotomas, reducing visual acuity and quality of life, potentially resulting

Fundus autofluorescence applications in retinal imaging

open access: yesIndian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2015
Fundus autofluorescence (FAF) is a relatively new imaging technique that can be used to study retinal diseases. It provides information on retinal metabolism and health. Several different pathologies can be detected.

Regional growth kinetics of geographic atrophy in age‐related macular degeneration with and without fovea‐sparing

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Fovea‐sparing geographic atrophy (GA) patients retain near‐normal central vision. To better understand GA progression in relation to the fovea, we performed a semi‐automated image analysis of regional atrophy growth in a long‐term GA natural‐history cohort. Methods Prospective‐observational, single‐centre‐study (02/2013–07/2025) at the

Macular edema in Asian Indian premature infants with retinopathy of prematurity: Impact on visual acuity and refractive status after 1-year

open access: yesIndian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2015
Purpose: To report the impact of transient, self-resolving, untreated "macular edema" detected on spectral domain optical coherence tomography in Asian Indian premature infants with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) on visual acuity (VA) and refraction at

Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis after lung transplantation

open access: yesRespirology Case Reports, 2020
We report the case of a 69‐year‐old man five‐month post double lung transplant for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) who presented with progressive breathlessness, loss of lung function, and diffuse ground glass shadowing on the chest computed ...
