Comparative Study of Accommodative Function and Binocular Vision in Patients With Primary Angle‐Closure Disease

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The age‐related decline in accommodative function after the age of 50 years corresponds with an increasing incidence of primary angle‐closure disease (PACD); however, the interaction between this decline and PACD remains unexamined. Additionally, refractive error‐accommodation associations in elderly individuals, which are critical for PACD ...

Associations Between Initial Glycated Hemoglobin at Diabetes Diagnosis, Longitudinal Changes and Medication Effects, and the Severity and Progression of Sight‐Threatening Diabetic Retinopathy

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of vision impairment in patients diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Awareness of risk factors is necessary to reduce or prevent harmful effects of DR such as irreversible vision loss, and to help ensure early treatment.

Power and clinical utility of mesopic microperimetry analysis strategies in age‐related macular degeneration

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study evaluates whether mesopic microperimetry (MMP) provides a more robust measure of retinal function compared to visual acuity (VA) in age‐related macular degeneration (AMD) clinical trials, with a focus on optimal analysis strategies. Method Fellow‐eyes of unilateral neovascular AMD were prospectively studied.

Neovascular glaucoma - A review

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2021
Neovascular glaucoma (NVG) is a sight-threatening secondary glaucoma characterized by appearance of new vessels over the iris and proliferation of fibrovascular tissue in the anterior chamber angle. Retinal ischemia is the common driving factor and common causes are central retinal vein occlusion, proliferative diabetic ...
