Clinical manifestations of dual‐gene variants in retinitis pigmentosa
Abstract Purpose Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is an inherited retinal disease (IRD), whereby each affected individual typically harbours pathogenic variants in a single causative gene, yet the disorder exhibits marked genetic heterogeneity, with more than 100 genes reported to underlie RP.

Retinal dystrophies simulating geographic atrophy: A diagnostic challenge
Abstract Geographic atrophy (GA) is the chronic loss of retinal pigment epithelium, photoreceptors and choriocapillaris, marking the dry late stage of age‐related macular degeneration (AMD). GA prevalence is expected to rise in the upcoming decades. Advanced GA leads to central scotomas, reducing visual acuity and quality of life, potentially resulting

Abstract Purpose To define interdevice differences in quantitative outer retinal biomarkers across three spectral‐domain (SD) optical coherence tomography (OCT) devices in geographic atrophy (GA). Methods Patients with GA prospectively underwent imaging using Spectralis (Heidelberg Engineering), Cirrus (Zeiss) and Maestro (Topcon) OCT devices ...
