A multifocal electroretinography study to evaluate risk of developing macular hole in the fellow eye of patients suffering with unilateral macular hole

Therapeutic Advances in Ophthalmology, 2020
Background: Visual outcome of eyes has often been found to be unsatisfactory even after successful closure of a macular hole, owing to factors like persistent metamorphopsia, scotoma, and reduced sensitivity.

Quantifying Dehydration Effects of Porcine Vocal Fold Attenuation With Optical Coherence Tomography

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The purpose of this study is to use optical coherence tomography (OCT) to characterize the effect of dehydration on the optical attenuation coefficient of porcine vocal fold (VF) tissue. The optical attenuation coefficient tissue decreased linearly with dehydration, dropping by approximately 0.08 mm−1 for every 1% increase in mass loss.

Axial length, myopia progression, and myopic maculopathy in Stickler syndrome

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose We lack knowledge on the potentially progressive nature of and the prevalence of complications to myopia as a characteristic trait of Stickler syndrome. Methods This cross‐sectional study combines ophthalmic examination and medical record data on Danish patients with genetically confirmed Stickler syndrome type 1 (COL2A1) and type 2 ...

Vitreoretinal complications and surgical outcomes in patients with X‐linked retinoschisis

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose X‐linked retinoschisis (XLRS) is an inherited vitreoretinal disorder characterized by macular retinoschisis. In a subgroup of patients, peripheral retinoschisis can occur, potentially leading to complications such as vitreous haemorrhage (VH) and retinal detachment (RD).
