Canadian investigators urged quick neuro-ophthalmologic referrals to limit the progress of life- and vision-threatening conditions

The study aimed to clarify how race affects visual outcomes for patients with diabetic macular oedema treated with ranibizumab

The phase 3 LUCERNE and TENAYA trials suggested that faricimab may allow clinicians to extend the interval between injections to up to 16 weeks after an initial loading phase

Social media smartphone application–based interventions significantly improved adherence and parental knowledge among families of children with congenital ectopia lentis

The study findings support the need to consider ophthalmologic monitoring in children with early-onset atopic dermatitis

Fundus images of diabetic retinopathy were assessed by general ophthalmologists, retina specialists and the Aireen artificial intelligence system

Hematologists and ophthalmologists could work together for earlier diagnoses, research findings indicate

Researchers assessed the costs to patients and caregivers in Germany, Bulgaria and the US

The study assessed a large paediatric cohort for changes in spherical equivalent refraction, axial length, lens power and lens thickness

The authors examined vascular and neural structures in the eye, assessing the foveal avascular zone and choroidal thickness

The study demonstrated that the number of injections needed gradually decreased during the follow-up period

The study findings indicated that lifestyle changes associated with the COVID-19 pandemic were connected to an increase in childhood astigmatisms

Inherited retinal diseases have disease processes distinct from age-related macular degeneration and geographic atrophy, but may present with "phenocopy" clinical signs

Investigators measured the choroidal structures using enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography

Prophylactic cyclosporine A 0.1% eye drops were associated with improved ocular surface homeostasis and reduced inflammation

Additionally, the prognosis of macular oedema may help clinicians evaluate renal function, investigators reported

The toric IOLs demonstrated a slight advantage over FSAK and were associated with better postoperative uncorrected distance visual acuity

The authors said their results provide strong support that cultivated autologous limbal epithelial cell transplantation is safe and feasible

The investigators' findings suggest that CVI is a valuable noninvasive predictive biomarker for monitoring vascular changes in patients who smoke

The researchers reported a “notable” correlation which could serve as a predictive biomarker

More respondents reported experiencing sexual harassment than in a survey conducted 5 years earlier

Italian investigators reported that ocular surface conditions such as dry eye disease are key factors in perioperative outcomes, even when patients achieve 20/20 vision

Risk factors vary in both short-term and long-term periods following Boston Type 1 keratoprosthesis surgery

Children experienced sudden vision loss, visual field constriction, nyctalopia and dyschromatopsia following febrile illness

The authors evaluated shallow irregular pigment epithelial detachment, subretinal hyperreflective material, subretinal fluid, intraretinal fluid and other baseline OCT biomarkers

The study underscored a need for tailored approaches among specific patient populations

Researchers screened for outcomes such as the presence of retinal diseases including age-related macular degeneration and retinal vein occlusion

The link between eye health and mental health may be deeper than previously believed

The authors emphasised that consumers and clinicians should be made aware of potential ophthalmic adverse events associated with cosmetics and personal care products

The implant was tested in eyes of patients with bilateral age-related macular degeneration who underwent cataract surgery
