Diagnostic accuracy of the Amsler grid and the preferential hyperacuity perimetry in the screening of patients with age-related macular degeneration: systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Eye, 2014 To clarify the screening potential of the Amsler grid and preferential hyperacuity perimetry (PHP) in detecting or ruling out wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD).Medline, Scopus and Web of Science (by citation of reference) were searched. Checking of reference lists of review articles and of included articles complemented electronic searches ...

Measuring image distortions arising from age-related macular degeneration: An Iterative Amsler Grid (IAG). [PDF]
MedComm (2020), 2022 We developed an objective method, where using an interactive graphical user interface, participants dragged the intersection point of a cross‐like grid element to the center of the reference square (with different size for different iterations), with the goal to correct deviations from the ideal Amsler Grid.

Idiopathic Macular Hole: A Comprehensive Review of Its Pathogenesis and of Advanced Studies on Metamorphopsia. [PDF]
J Ophthalmol, 2019 Vitreous anteroposterior traction is an important factor that affects macular hole (MH) formation at the early stage, and vitreous tangential traction can lead to further hole expansion after hole formation. Recent studies have highlighted the significance of Müller cells for the pathogenesis of MH.
