In vitro evaluation of in situ gels as short term vitreous substitutes

, 2006
Dysfunction of the vitreous humor, present in the posterior cavity of the eye, leads to its detachment from the retina and vision loss. In this study, biopolymers were evaluated as in situ gels for short term vitreous substitution.

Minocycline and bone marrow–derived mononuclear cells as potential therapeutics for hereditary retinal degenerations

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To assess in Royal College of Surgeons (RCS) rats if the combination of two previously documented neuroprotective strategies: minocycline administration and bone marrow–derived mononuclear cells (BM‐MNCs) intravitreal transplantation, offers enhanced neuroprotection compared with each treatment alone.

Toward a high-throughput in vitro model for estimating vitreous humor permeability of topically applied drugs

Scientific Reports
The vitreous humor of the eye presents a crucial target for posterior segment therapy due to its proximity to the retina and relatively easy accessibility. Although intravitreous injections have long been the primary method for treating posterior segment

Rheological behaviour and flow dynamics of Vitreous Humour substitutes used in eye surgery during saccadic eye movements

, 2023
This work discusses the rheology of several vitreous humour (VH) substitutes used in eye surgery (perfluorocarbons and silicone oils) and their flow behaviour when subjected to saccadic eye movements.

The impacts of high refractive errors on self‐reported visual function and visual concern

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To examine the association between refractive errors and self‐reported visual function and visual concern, considering self‐perceived present eyesight, concerns about vision, accomplishing less and limitations in daily activities in an eye‐healthy cohort.

From Bench to Battlefield: An Evaluation of in situ Forming Hydrogels as Vitreous Substitutes for Military and Combat Veterans

, 2017
Central to ocular health is the vitreous body, a complex, gelatinous tissue filling the space between the lens and retina. It is a natural polymeric hydrogel whose delicate architecture of collagen and hyaluronic acid loses its mechanical structure under

Patient‐reported outcomes and visual function after four refractive strategies in cataract surgery: A randomized controlled trial

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) and visual function across four groups of public cataract patients: emmetropia, mini‐monovision, monovision with partial‐range of field (RoF) narrow intraocular lenses (IOLs) and patients implanted with partial‐RoF extended IOLs.

Adult‐onset Coats disease: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of imaging biomarkers and targeted therapies

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Coats disease diagnosed in adulthood is a rare idiopathic retinal telangiectatic vasculopathy that may differ in phenotype from childhood‐diagnosed cases. This systematic review synthesizes current evidence to characterize its clinical spectrum, imaging features, treatment outcomes and underlying mechanisms, with a focus on immunovascular ...

Imaging of Laser-Induced Thermal Convection and Conduction in Artificial Vitreous Humor

Biophysica
This study extends the application of photothermal spectroscopy to explore heat transfer dynamics in biological fluids, focusing on the examination of artificial vitreous humor (VH) models of human VH and an endogenous sample of cervine (deer) VH.
