Analysis of retinal vessels in eyes with retinitis pigmentosa by retinal oximeter [PDF]
AbstractPurposeTo study changes in the oxygen saturation and calibre of retinal vessels in the eyes of patients with retinitis pigmentosa (RP).MethodIn this cross‐sectional 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

Machine Learning Method for Functional Assessment of Retinal Models [PDF]
Challenges in the field of retinal prostheses motivate the development of retinal models to accurately simulate Retinal Ganglion Cells (RGCs) responses. The goal of retinal prostheses is to enable blind individuals to solve complex, reallife visual tasks.

Assembly of Natively Synthesized Dual Chromophores Into Functional Actinorhodopsin
Microbial rhodopsin is a simple solar energy-capturing molecule compared to the complex photosynthesis apparatus. Light-driven proton pumping across the cell membrane is a crucial mechanism underlying microbial energy production. Actinobacteria is one of

Retinal Hemodynamics in Retinitis Pigmentosa
To investigate the retinal hemodynamic changes occurring in patients with retinitis pigmentosa (RP).Bidirectional laser Doppler velocimetry and monochromatic fundus photography were used to determine retinal venous diameter (D), maximum erythrocyte velocity (Vmax), and volumetric blood flow (Q) in the major retinal veins of eight patients with RP and ...

Preoperative electrophysiological characterization of patients with primary macula-involving rhegmatogenous retinal detachment [PDF]
Purpose: To determine 1) which components of retinal function are impaired after rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, 2) which outer retinal pathways (rod- or cone-driven) are more severely affected, and 3) whether there is concomitant inner retinal ...

Dampening Spontaneous Activity Improves the Light Sensitivity and Spatial Acuity of Optogenetic Retinal Prosthetic Responses [PDF]
Retinitis pigmentosa is a progressive retinal dystrophy that causes irreversible visual impairment and blindness. Retinal prostheses currently represent the only clinically available vision-restoring treatment, but the quality of vision returned remains ...

Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is an inherited retinal dystrophy caused by the loss of photoreceptors and characterized by retinal pigment deposits visible on fundus examination. Prevalence of non syndromic RP is approximately 1/4,000. The most common form of RP is a rod-cone dystrophy, in which the first symptom is night blindness, followed by the ...
