Minimizing activation of overlying axons with epiretinal stimulation: The role of fiber orientation and electrode configuration. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Currently, a challenge in electrical stimulation of the retina with a visual prosthesis (bionic eye) is to excite only the cells lying directly under the electrode in the ganglion cell layer, while avoiding excitation of axon bundles that pass over the ...

Analysis of current density and related parameters in spinal cord stimulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
A volume conductor model of the spinal cord and surrounding anatomical structures is used to calculate current (and current density) charge per pulse, and maximum charge density per pulse at the contact surface of the electrode in the dorsal epidural ...

Pattern of Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness Loss in Fetal Alcohol Syndrome: A Spectral-Domain Optical Coherence Tomography Analysis

open access: yesActa Médica Portuguesa, 2016
Introduction: Optic disc hypoplasia is a common feature in fetal alcohol syndrome. Thus, we aimed to evaluate the optic disc morphology changes and the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness in these patients.

COMPARISON BETWEEN AMBLYOPIC AND OTHER NON-AMBLYOPIC EYES IN TERMS OF MACULA AND RETINAL NERVE FIBER LAYER THICKNESS

open access: yesSanamed, 2018
Statement of Significance: The prospect of this study is that the macula thickness is reduced in amblyopic eyes and may be a potential diagnostic tool in the future screening of amblyopic eyes.

Macular and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness changes after small-incision lenticule extraction and femto-LASIK

open access: yesDelta Journal of Ophthalmology, 2015
Introduction Femtosecond laser flap creation exerts less intraocular pressure (IOP) fluctuation but requires more procedural time compared with microkeratome flap creation.

Quantitatively Measured Anatomic Location and Volume of Optic Disc Drusen: An Enhanced Depth Imaging Optical Coherence Tomography Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Optic disc drusen (ODD) are found in up to 2.4% of the population and are known to cause visual field defects. The purpose of the current study was to investigate how quantitatively estimated volume and anatomic location of ODD influence optic nerve ...

Diagnostic ability of retinal nerve fiber layer maps to detect localized retinal nerve fiber layer defects [PDF]

open access: yesEye, 2013
To evaluate and compare the diagnostic ability of spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) for detecting localized retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) defects in topographic RNFL maps and circumpapillary RNFL (cpRNFL) thickness measurements.Sixty-four eyes with localized RNFL defects in red-free RNFL photographs and 72 healthy eyes were ...
