ABSTRACT The age‐related decline in accommodative function after the age of 50 years corresponds with an increasing incidence of primary angle‐closure disease (PACD); however, the interaction between this decline and PACD remains unexamined. Additionally, refractive error‐accommodation associations in elderly individuals, which are critical for PACD ...

Elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is the most prevalent risk factor for primary open-angle glaucoma. However, IOP alone does not fully describe a mechanical basis for disease in patients with normal tension glaucoma or primary open-angle glaucoma.

In this work, we investigated the dynamic retinal pathology of glaucoma from onset to late stages through longitudinal in vivo high‐resolution imaging in a silicone oil‐induced ocular hypertension (SOHU) glaucoma mouse model. We developed an optimized adaptive optics two‐photon excitation fluorescence microscopy (AO‐TPEFM) technique for morphological ...

Mydriasis as a Secondary Effect in Patients With HLA‐B27–Associated Uveitis
HLA‐B27‐associated acute anterior uveitis causes significant inflammation of the iris and anterior chamber, which disrupts normal parasympathetic control and results in increased sympathetic tone leading to pupil dilation (mydriasis). This finding can sometimes resemble herpetic uveitis, making a clinical context and careful evaluation crucial for ...
