Prevalence of central serous chorioretinopathy in Denmark
Abstract Purpose Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) is a prevalent maculopathy, but epidemiological studies are few. In this study, we determined the prevalence of CSC for the first time in a Scandinavian population. Methods This cross‐sectional study was based on nationwide opportunistic retinal examination from 79 high street chain optician ...

The role of red blood cell characteristics and viscosity in sickle cell retinopathy and maculopathy
Sickle cell retinopathy and maculopathy are common ocular complications of sickle cell disease. This study assessed the contribution of red blood cell characteristics and blood viscosity to their development. HbSC patients with proliferative retinopathy showed a lower delta elongation index and point of sickling, while no link was found between whole ...
