Across 11 observational studies comprising 6 471 577 patients, the pooled incidence of ischaemic optic neuropathy after cardiac surgery was approximately 1.5 cases per 10 000 procedures. Coronary artery disease, peripheral vascular disease and anaemia were associated with increased odds of ION, although these findings should be interpreted in the ...

The effect of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment on retinal oxygenation
Abstract Purpose Little is known about the effects of retinal detachment on oxygen extraction from retinal vessels. The role of oxygen supply from the retinal vessels in a detached area has not previously been investigated in vivo in humans. Retinal oximetry is a non‐invasive measurement of retinal oxygen saturation.

Abstract Purpose Retinal telangiectatic capillaries (TelCaps) are microvascular abnormalities associated with chronic vascular macular oedema and suboptimal response to intravitreal therapy. Targeted laser photocoagulation is beneficial but requires precise localization using indocyanine green angiography (ICG‐A), the reference standard. However, ICG‐A
