Observation of cone and rod photoreceptors in normal subjects and patients using a new generation adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscope. [PDF]

, 2011
We demonstrate the capability of a new generation adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscope (AOSLO) to resolve cones and rods in normal subjects, and confirm our findings by comparing cone and rod spacing with published histology measurements.

The Prospects for Retinal Organoids in Treatment of Retinal Diseases

Asia-Pacific Journal of Ophthalmology, 2022
Retinal degeneration (RD) is a significant cause of incurable blindness worldwide. Photoreceptors and retinal pigmented epithelium are irreversibly damaged in advanced RD. Functional replacement of photoreceptors and/or retinal pigmented epithelium cells is a promising approach to restoring vision.

Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease is always bilateral: reports of unilateral cases failed to use choroidal investigations showing subclinical involvement of the fellow eye

Journal of Ophthalmic Inflammation and Infection, 2021
Background/purpose Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) disease is a primary stromal choroiditis and a bilateral granulomatous panuveitis which, if not treated early and properly, could have a deleterious evolution. The purpose of our case report is to demonstrate

Reactivation of Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease under control for more than 6 years, following anti-SARS-CoV-2 vaccination

Journal of Ophthalmic Inflammation and Infection, 2021
Background/purpose Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) disease is a primary stromal choroiditis with bilateral granulomatous panuveitis. If initial-onset VKH is treated early and relentlessly the disease can be controlled and even “cured” in a substantial number ...

Laser flare photometry: a cost-effective method for early detection of endophthalmitis after intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF agents

Journal of Ophthalmic Inflammation and Infection, 2018
Background Intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor agents is the most common intraocular procedure worldwide, inevitably causing more cases of post-injection endophthalmitis. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the utility

Structural and Vascular Features of Macula Related to the Recurrence of Macular Edema in Central Retinal Vein Occlusion After Anti-VEGF Therapy

Journal of Ophthalmology
Conclusion: With prolonged CRVO duration, more anti-VEGF injections, and more retinal photocoagulation procedures, retinal, choroidal, and vascular atrophy in the macula occurs in CRVO eyes, making ME less likely to recur.
