Retinopathy of prematurity, formerly known as a retrolental fibroplasia, is a leading cause of infantile blindness worldwide. Retinopathy of prematurity is caused by the failure of central retinal vessels to reach the retinal periphery, creating a ...

Abstract Purpose The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is critical in the pathophysiology of retinal diseases, such as age‐related macular degeneration. Adaptive optics transscleral flood illumination (AO‐TFI) offers rapid, detailed morphometric characterization of the RPE layer.

Foveal neovascularization in a patient with Type 2 diabetes mellitus
Retinal neovascularization in Diabetes mellitus (DM) is commonly seen at the optic disc and mid-periphery. It is rare at the fovea as the fovea is an avascular zone and there are very few case reports of foveal neovascularization in Type 1 DM.

Axial length, myopia progression, and myopic maculopathy in Stickler syndrome
Abstract Purpose We lack knowledge on the potentially progressive nature of and the prevalence of complications to myopia as a characteristic trait of Stickler syndrome. Methods This cross‐sectional study combines ophthalmic examination and medical record data on Danish patients with genetically confirmed Stickler syndrome type 1 (COL2A1) and type 2 ...

Ref-1 redox activity modulates canonical Wnt signaling in endothelial cells
Ischemic retinopathies, including proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) and retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), are characterized by abnormal retinal neovascularization and can lead to blindness in children and adults.

Calcitriol Is a Potent Inhibitor of Retinal Neovascularization
Vitamin D compounds inhibit the growth of a variety of tumors in preclinical and clinical studies. Among the mechanisms suggested for this inhibition is antiangiogenesis. Retinal angiogenesis is the basis for vision loss in several major blinding diseases.

Abstract Purpose To evaluate longitudinal changes in choroidal thickness (CT) in highly myopic eyes and their correlation with myopic maculopathy progression and visual outcomes. Methods Retrospective cohort study on 1228 eyes from 781 highly myopic patients with a minimum 5‐year follow‐up (mean 11.5 ± 3.1 years).
