Thalamic regulation of ocular dominance plasticity in adult visual cortex

eLife, 2023
Experience-dependent plasticity in the adult visual system is generally thought of as a cortical process. However, several recent studies have shown that perceptual learning or monocular deprivation can also induce plasticity in the adult dorsolateral ...

Variants in NR6A1 cause a novel oculo vertebral renal syndrome

Nature Communications
Colobomatous microphthalmia is a potentially blinding congenital ocular malformation that can present either in isolation or together with other syndromic features. Despite a strong genetic component to disease, many cases lack a molecular diagnosis.

The c.119-123dup5bp mutation in human γC-crystallin destabilizes the protein and activates the unfolded protein response to cause highly variable cataracts

Scientific Reports
Ordered cellular architecture and high concentrations of stable crystallins are required for the lens to maintain transparency. Here we investigate the molecular mechanism of cataractogenesis of the CRYGC c.119-123dupGCGGC (p.Cys42AlafsX63) (CRYGC5bpdup)

Functional Visual Acuity

Investigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2018
Dry eye (DE) causes irregularity of the ocular surface and reduces the quality of vision. An intact, regular tear film is essential for high-quality retinal images; however, visual tasks requiring sustained gazing can disrupt the tear film, eventually degrading visual function.

The Functions of Visual Management [PDF]

, 2009
Visual Management has been evolving and effectively employed in some manufacturing and service organisations for a long time. In order to facilitate a cross-industrial learning process and to advance in detailed research the understanding of how the Visual Management concept may serve in an organisation is necessary.

Generation of four human pluripotent stem cell lines harboring OPA1-related optic atrophy variant

Stem Cell Research
We have generated four human iPSC lines from skin biopsy-derived fibroblast cells with pathogenic variants in OPA1. Donors have a clinical diagnosis of optic atrophy.

The Assessment of Visual Function and Functional Vision

Seminars in Pediatric Neurology, 2019
The complete assessment of vision-related abilities should consider visual function (the performance of components of the visual system) and functional vision (visual task-related ability). Assessment methods are highly dependent upon individual characteristics (eg, the presence and type of visual impairment).

Evaluation of retinal structure changes with AI-based OCT image segmentation for sodium iodate induced retinal degeneration

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience
Segmentations of retinal optical coherence tomography (OCT) images provide valuable information about each specific retinal layer. However, processing images from degenerative retina remains challenging.
