The retina represents a paradox, in that, while light and oxygen are essential for vision, these conditions also favour the formation of reactive oxygen species leading to photochemical damage to the retina. Such light damage seems to be multi-factorial and is dependent on the photoreactivity of a variety of chromophores (e.g., vitamin A metabolites ...

Exploring fundus‐controlled mesopic and scotopic perimetry in inherited retinal disease
Abstract Purpose Microperimetry is increasingly used as an outcome measure in clinical trials for retinal disease. This study compares mesopic and scotopic microperimetry in a heterogeneous cohort of patients with inherited retinal disease to assess their suitability as clinical trial outcome measures and to determine the most appropriate testing ...

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.

The cellular fate of mutant rhodopsin: quality control, degradation and aggresome formation
Mutations in the photopigment rhodopsin are the major cause of autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa. The majority of mutations in rhodopsin lead to misfolding of the protein.

FIG4 is essential for lysosomal homeostasis. FIG4‐related disorders present as a continuous spectrum from the juvenile lethality in Yunis‐Varon syndrome to an increased risk of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) in adult life. FIG4‐related disorders comprise a novel group of disorders of lysosomal homeostasis and can be classified into severe ...

Post Fever Uveoretinal Manifestations in an Immunocompetent Individual
Background: Post fever uveoretinal sequelae (PFURS) are the various uveoretinal manifestations seen after a systemic febrile illness in an immunocompetent individual caused by bacteria, viruses, and protozoa.

The Burden: Hearing loss (HL) is the most prevalent sensory disorder globally, affecting 1.5 million individuals in Brazil. The Gap: While > 150 genes are linked to HL, the genetic architecture in underrepresented populations like Brazil is poorly defined. The Problem: This lack of data limits diagnostic yield and the application of precision medicine.
