Proliferative vitreoretinopathy: An integrative, multi‐pathway perspective on pathogenesis and therapy

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) remains the principal biological cause of failed retinal detachment repair. Classical pathogenic models centred on retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) dispersion, retinal injury responses or compartment‐restricted mechanisms do not fully explain the heterogeneity, biomechanical behaviour and clinical ...

CRB1‐Associated Inherited Retinal Dystrophies: Prospective Natural History Study With 4 Years of Follow‐Up

open access: yesClinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The lack of validated and sensitive clinical endpoints remains a major challenge in the design of gene therapy trials for inherited retinal dystrophies (IRDs). This prospective longitudinal cohort study describes the natural disease progression of IRDs caused by pathogenic mutations in the Crumbs homologue 1 (CRB1) gene, and ...

Degenerative myopia: mechanical theories revisited

open access: yesAnnals of Eye Science, 2018
The article discusses the early abandonment of mechanical theories about eye enlargement in degenerative myopia at the turn of the 20th century. At that time, the number of theories about myopia grew unrestricted, but with scant support from the experimental field.

Premium Intraocular Lens Selection in Patients With Glaucoma: A Clinical Review

open access: yesClinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glaucoma frequently coexists with cataract, but glaucomatous functional loss, ocular‐surface disease, anatomical abnormalities, and treatment‐related refractive variability may reduce tolerance of premium intraocular lenses. This narrative review critically appraises evidence relevant to lens selection in glaucoma. Central visual‐field status,
