Retinal detachment in retinitis pigmentosa [PDF]
BMJ Open Ophthalmology, 2020 ObjectiveRetinitis pigmentosa-related retinal detachment (RPRD) is rare, and the full spectrum of retinal complications is not well defined. To describe the types of retinal detachment in patients with retinitis pigmentosa and the surgical outcomes of RPRD.MethodsThis is a non-comparative, retrospective case series.

Retinal Organoids and Retinal Prostheses: An Overview
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022 Despite the progress of modern medicine in the last decades, millions of people diagnosed with retinal dystrophies (RDs), such as retinitis pigmentosa, or age-related diseases, such as age-related macular degeneration, are suffering from severe visual impairment or even legal blindness.

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022 Brain plasticity is a well-established concept designating the ability of central nervous system (CNS) neurons to rearrange as a result of learning, when adapting to changeable environmental conditions or else while reacting to injurious factors. As a part of the CNS, the retina has been repeatedly probed for its possible ability to respond plastically

Retinal cell transplantation in retinitis pigmentosa
Taiwan Journal of Ophthalmology, 2021 Retinitis pigmentosa is the most common hereditary retinal disease. Dietary supplements, neuroprotective agents, cytokines, and lately, prosthetic devices, gene therapy, and optogenetics have been employed to slow down the retinal degeneration or improve light perception.

Retinitis pigmentosa and retinal oedema. [PDF]
British Journal of Ophthalmology, 1978 Twenty-five patients with retinitis pigmentosa and retinal leakage were investigated. Oedema was present in dominant and X-linked inherited disease and is likely to be present in recessive disease as well. We suggest that this might be a general response seen in many types of tapeto-retinal degeneration to actively degenerating photoreceptors or ...

IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 2012 Retinal prosthesis has been translated from the laboratory to the clinic over the past two decades. Currently, two devices have regulatory approval for the treatment of retinitis pigmentosa. These devices provide partial sight restoration and patients use this improved vision in their everyday lives.

Retinal imaging in inherited retinal diseases [PDF]
Annals of Eye Science, 2020 Inherited retinal diseases (IRD) are a leading cause of blindness in the working age population. The advances in ocular genetics, retinal imaging and molecular biology, have conspired to create the ideal environment for establishing treatments for IRD, with the first approved gene therapy and the commencement of multiple therapy trials.

Analysis of retinal vessels in eyes with retinitis pigmentosa by retinal oximeter [PDF]
Acta Ophthalmologica, 2014 AbstractPurposeTo study changes in the oxygen saturation and calibre of retinal vessels in the eyes of patients with retinitis pigmentosa (RP).MethodIn this crossâsectional study, 63 eyes of 63 patients with RP and 14 eyes of 14 healthy subjects were enrolled and examined at Toyama University Hospital. Retinal oximetry measurements were performed using
