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 To evaluate real‐world safety experience with aflibercept 8 mg in a large case series of patients with neovascular age‐related macular degeneration (nAMD). Methods Due to a high proportion of patients on short treatment intervals, patients with nAMD at a Danish tertiary retina clinic were systematically switched to aflibercept 8 mg ...

Abstract Introduction The increasing number of patients with diabetes has increased the incidence of diabetic macular oedema (DME) with the accompanying risk of developing visual loss. The purpose of the present study was to describe the contributions of increased central retinal thickness (CRT) and other risk factors to the reduction in visual acuity ...

Retinal dystrophies simulating geographic atrophy: A diagnostic challenge
Abstract Geographic atrophy (GA) is the chronic loss of retinal pigment epithelium, photoreceptors and choriocapillaris, marking the dry late stage of age‐related macular degeneration (AMD). GA prevalence is expected to rise in the upcoming decades. Advanced GA leads to central scotomas, reducing visual acuity and quality of life, potentially resulting

Abstract Purpose Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) is one of the leading causes of blindness in working‐age adults. We have previously shown that the risk of PDR is significantly elevated in individuals with intrauterine exposure to famine. However, the genetic mechanisms mediating this association remain unknown.

Three years of ocular proton therapy in the Netherlands, clinical results
Abstract Purpose Uveal melanoma (UM) is a rare cancer with rising number of diagnosis (143 diagnoses in 1990 to 226 in 2023) in the Netherlands. Most patients are treated locally with Ruthenium‐106 brachytherapy (±102/year). Patients were referred for proton therapy (PT) to Switzerland in the past, but PT is available in the Netherlands from January ...

Investigating the association between occupation and retinal detachment in patients referred to ophthalmology clinics in Mashhad, Iran [PDF]
Background and Aims: Retinal detachment is a serious eye condition that requires prompt attention. While it's not a work-related disorder, research suggests that the risk of retinal detachment may vary depending on one's occupation.

Abstract Purpose To develop THESS‐ROP, a novel prediction model for treatment‐warranted retinopathy of prematurity (TW‐ROP) and compare its performance with four established models in a Greek cohort of consecutively screened preterm infants. Methods This ambispective cohort study included all 526 infants screened for ROP (2016–2022) at the 2nd ...

Background In vitrectomy for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, long-acting gas tamponades (LGT) such as C3F8 or C2F6 may improve surgical success rate due to their prolonged effect compared to a short-acting gas tamponade (SGT) with SF6.
