Choroidal vascular hyperpermeability patterns in central serous chorioretinopathy correlate with microperimetry: CERTAIN study report 4

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This report evaluates the association of three distinct leakage patterns of choroidal vascular hyperpermeability (CVH) on indocyanine green angiography (ICGA), previously correlated with disease chronicity, with retinal sensitivity measured by microperimetry in central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC): unifocal indistinct signs of ...

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

Clinical 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.
