Unilateral pigment dispersion syndrome
PAMJ Clinical Medicine, 2020 A 40-year-old woman who presented for prescription of glasses. She had no history of ocular trauma, inflammation, or any ocular disease. Refraction was - 1,25D in the right eye, and -1 in the left eye. Corrected Visual acuity was 6/6 in both eyes.

The retinal pigment epithelium of the eye regulates the development of scleral cartilage
Developmental Biology, 2010 The majority of vertebrate species have a layer of hyaline cartilage within the fibrous sclera giving an extra degree of support to the eyeball. In chicks, this is seen as a cuplike structure throughout the scleral layer. However, the mechanisms that control the development of scleral cartilage are largely unknown.

Acute caffeine treatment protects the developing retina from ischemia‐induced cell death
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Caffeine reduces cell death in the developing retina under ischemia (OGD). This effect does not involve BDNF upregulation or antioxidant pathways (NRF2/VEGF). Neuroprotection occurs mainly through adenosine A2A receptor antagonism, decreasing glutamate release and excitotoxicity, highlighting caffeine's potential as an acute neuroprotective agent in ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.In this study, Hammer et al. highlight cyclic‐arginine surface engineering as a highly biocompatible, controllable, and concentration‐dependent regulator of intravitreal nanoparticle mobility in vivo in a translational large animal model. The cyclic arginine surface‐modification supports the development of next‐generation biomaterials for long‐acting ...

Superior cervical gangliectomy induces non-exudative age-related macular degeneration in mice
Disease Models & Mechanisms, 2018 Non-exudative age-related macular degeneration, a prevalent cause of blindness, is a progressive and degenerative disease characterized by alterations in Bruch's membrane, retinal pigment epithelium, and photoreceptors exclusively localized in the macula.
