ABSTRACT Several benign, inflammatory and malignant lesions can present as iris or anterior chamber masses, including iris naevi, cysts, adenomas, leiomyomas, nodules, vascular tumours, melanomas, metastases, as well as iris and pigment epithelium adenocarcinomas. Fortunately, benign iris lesions are much more common than malignant tumours and many can

Australian and New Zealand Glaucoma Society (ANZGS) Consensus on Interventional Glaucoma
ABSTRACT Background Traditional reactive ‘wait and see’ approaches in glaucoma management often result in unacceptable rates of permanent vision loss. This consensus defines a proactive ‘interventional glaucoma’ framework tailored for the Australian and New Zealand healthcare context. Methods A modified Delphi consensus process was utilised, consisting

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 ...

ABSTRACT Background This trial aimed to evaluate the efficacy of oral acetazolamide in reducing cystoid fluid collections (CFC) and improving visual function in patients with X‐linked retinoschisis (XLRS). Methods In this investigator‐initiated, single centre, open‐label, randomised controlled trial, XLRS patients aged ≥ 12 years with fovea‐involving ...

Pigment epithelium-derived factor expression in the developing mouse eye.
Pigment Epithelium-Derived Factor (PEDF) is a 50 kDa secretable protein with neuroprotective, neurotrophic, and antiangiogenic properties. Expression patterns in the human eye suggest that modulation of this protein over time and place may play a role in development of normal ocular vasculature.

Ocular Manifestations of Metabolic Syndrome: A Systemic Vascular Phenotype
ABSTRACT Context Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is defined by central obesity, insulin resistance, hypertension and dyslipidemia. MetS affects over one‐third of US adults. Beyond its cardiovascular burden, MetS has clinically relevant associations with ocular health and may contribute to a systemic vascular and neuro‐metabolic phenotype involving the retina,

Therapies for Cardiovascular‐Kidney‐Liver‐Metabolic Syndrome: Reappraisal of Fibrates
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease (CKD), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), obesity and metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatohepatitis (MASH) frequently coexist and share overlapping pathophysiology, forming the proposed cardiovascular‐kidney‐liver‐metabolic (CKLM) syndrome.

Equine eyelid reconstruction by semi‐circular skin flap blepharoplasty
Summary Reconstructive surgeries of the equine eyelid carry significant challenges for the equine surgeon, due to the poorly mobile and tightly adhered facial skin in this species. Preservation of lid function is an essential surgical consideration in order to maintain protection of the globe and cornea and to provide ocular comfort to the case ...

Patterns of Proliferation in the Pacific Hagfish (Eptatretus stoutii) Retina Suggest an Ancient Origin for Adult Neurogenesis. [PDF]
The hagfish, a jawless early‐branching vertebrate, has very rudimentary eyes that are diminutive and oddly devoid of melanin pigment. Yet, the degenerate hagfish eye grows throughout life and expresses canonical genes of vertebrate retinal development. ABSTRACT Comparative morphology has revealed fascinating structural and organizational differences in

Abstract The early ontogeny of endemic freshwater fishes provides essential baseline biological information for conservation and management, particularly in species with restricted distributions and high vulnerability to habitat degradation, environmental change and population decline. This study presents the first detailed description of embryonic and
