Dissection of a Mouse Eye for a Whole Mount of the Retinal Pigment Epithelium [PDF]
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2011 The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) lies at the back of the mammalian eye, just under the neural retina, which contains the photoreceptors (rods and cones). The RPE is a monolayer of pigmented cuboidal cells and associates closely with the neural retina just above it.

Near-infrared fundus autoflorescence imaging in solar retinopathy
GMS Ophthalmology Cases, 2017 Solar retinopathy is a rare clinical entity caused by photochemical damage to the retinal pigment epithelium layer and photoreceptors of the fovea. Here we describe a case of a 33-year-old female patient diagnosed by near-infrared fundus autofluorescence

Succinate Can Shuttle Reducing Power from the Hypoxic Retina to the O2-Rich Pigment Epithelium
Cell Reports, 2020 Summary: When O2 is plentiful, the mitochondrial electron transport chain uses it as a terminal electron acceptor. However, the mammalian retina thrives in a hypoxic niche in the eye.

Photodynamic Therapy Treatment for Eyes with Drusenoid Pigment Epithelium Detachment [PDF]
Korean Journal of Ophthalmology, 2008 We report the clinical course of photodynamic therapy (PDT) in a patient with drusenoid pigment epithelium detachment (PED). A patient with drusenoid PED underwent PDT follow-up was carried out at one week, one month, three months, six months and one year after treatment.

Dual roles of the retinal pigment epithelium and lens in cavefish eye degeneration [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, 2019 Abstract Astyanax mexicanus consists of two forms, a sighted surface dwelling form (surface fish) and a blind cave‐dwelling form (cavefish). Embryonic eyes are initially formed in cavefish but they are subsequently arrested in growth and degenerate during larval development.

Serpentine retinal pigment epithelial tear
Taiwan Journal of Ophthalmology, 2021 We report a case of retinal pigment epithelial tear in a patient with peripheral exudative hemorrhagic chorioretinopathy (PEHCR). A 60-year-old diabetic female presented with left eye metamorphopsia. Fundus examination showed bilateral peripheral retinal
