Syndromic retinitis pigmentosa

Progress in Retinal and Eye Research
Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a progressive inherited retinal dystrophy, characterized by the degeneration of photoreceptors, presenting as a rod-cone dystrophy. Approximately 20-30% of patients with RP also exhibit extra-ocular manifestations in the context of a syndrome.

Exploring fundus‐controlled mesopic and scotopic perimetry in inherited retinal disease

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
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

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
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.
