Shape of the posterior vitreous chamber in human emmetropia and myopia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
PURPOSE: To compare posterior vitreous chamber shape in myopia to that in emmetropia. METHODS: Both eyes of 55 adult subjects were studied, 27 with emmetropia (mean spherical error [MSE] ≥ -0.55;

Vitrectomy in high myopia: a narrative review

open access: yesInternational Journal of Retina and Vitreous, 2017
Pathologic myopia is associated with degenerative changes of the globe, especially at the posterior pole. Eyes affected by pathologic myopia have higher odds to undergo posterior segment surgery and, in those eyes, vitreoretinal surgery is challenging ...

Myopia and associated pathological complications [PDF]

open access: yesOphthalmic and Physiological Optics, 2005
AbstractBesides the direct economic and social burden of myopia, associated ocular complications may lead to substantial visual loss. In several population and clinic‐based cohorts, case–control and cross‐sectional studies, higher risks of posterior subcapsular cataract, cortical and nuclear cataract in myopic patients were reported. Patients with high

Eye shape and retinal shape, and their relation to peripheral refraction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Purpose: We provide an account of the relationships between eye shape, retinal shape and peripheral refraction. Recent findings: We discuss how eye and retinal shapes may be described as conicoids, and we describe an axis and section reference system for

Peripapillary Detachment in Pathologic Myopia [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Ophthalmology, 2003
To describe peripapillary detachment in pathologic myopia (PDPM), a newly recognized fundus lesion.Retrospective medical record review.We evaluated a series of myopic eyes that had a yellow-orange elevation of the retina and retinal pigment epithelium at the inferior border of the myopic conus.Twenty eyes of 15 patients were identified during a 17-year

Evaluation of the Efficacy and Safety of Satralizumab in a Pregnant NMOSD Patient With AQP4/MOG‐IgG Dual Seropositive: A Case Report

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder (NMOSD) is a chronic autoimmune neuroinflammatory disease, typically characterized by antibodies against aquaporin 4 (AQP4‐IgG) or myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG‐IgG). Simultaneous seropositivity for both antibodies in a single patient is exceedingly rare.

Imaging of Pathologic Myopia

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Ophthalmology, 2019
Pathologic myopia (PM) is a major cause of irreversible visual impairment worldwide and especially in East Asian countries. The complications of PM include myopic maculopathy, myopic macular retinoschisis, dome-shaped macula, and myopic optic neuropathy.

Upconversion Nanoparticles Embedded Photonic Contact Lens for Transepithelial Corneal Crosslinking Using Hyaluronate – Riboflavin Conjugate

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A minimally invasive, transepithelial corneal cross‐linking (TE‐CXL) approach is presented using upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs)‐loaded contact lenses (UCLs), after topical delivery of hyaluronate–riboflavin conjugates. The NIR‐to‐UV/blue light conversion by UCNPs in a UCL can activate riboflavin for TE‐CXL, resulting in the biomechanical strength ...

Characterization of Microplastics in Human Gastric Cancer and Control Tissues and Analysis of Associated Genetic Features

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study characterizes the presence of microplastics in human normal gastric, para‐tumor, and gastric tumor tissue and confirms the association between microplastic exposure and lymph node metastasis in gastric cancer. This study explores the transcriptomic changes induced by microplastic exposure, laying the foundation for further investigation into
