Retinal dystrophies simulating geographic atrophy: A diagnostic challenge

Acta 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

Genome‐wide association and interaction analysis for proliferative retinopathy in adults with type 2 diabetes born during famine: The DOLCE study in Ukraine

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) is one of the leading causes of blindness in working‐age adults. We have previously shown that the risk of PDR is significantly elevated in individuals with intrauterine exposure to famine. However, the genetic mechanisms mediating this association remain unknown.

Explainable deep learning self‐supervised vision transformer for fundus‐based myopia classification

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To develop and validate a self‐supervised vision transformer (ViT) for automated three‐class classification of Normal, High Myopia (HM), and Pathologic Myopia (PM) from colour fundus photographs, with anatomically faithful interpretability. Methods A DINOv2 self‐supervised ViT was fine‐tuned using a two‐stage transfer‐learning protocol

Systematic quantification of outer retinal morphology in three different SD‐OCT devices in geographic atrophy

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To define interdevice differences in quantitative outer retinal biomarkers across three spectral‐domain (SD) optical coherence tomography (OCT) devices in geographic atrophy (GA). Methods Patients with GA prospectively underwent imaging using Spectralis (Heidelberg Engineering), Cirrus (Zeiss) and Maestro (Topcon) OCT devices ...
