Resolution of mid-peripheral schisis in x-linked retinoschisis with the use of dorzolamide
X-linked retinoschisis (XLRS) is an early onset hereditary retinal dystrophy. It is caused by mutations of the RS1 gene. Common manifestations of XLRS are schitic lesions at the macula, as well as infero-temporal schisis. Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors have previously been...Hanson Wade: Dry AMD and Geographic Atrophy Therapeutics Summit 2025
Welcome to the 6th Dry AMD and Geographic Atrophy Therapeutics SummitTransformative Therapies for Dry, Intermediate & Late-Stage AMDWith late-phase trials advancing, novel mechanisms emerging, and global regulatory expectations evolving, the dry AMD and GA field is accelerating exponentially. Returning digitally...An update on idiopathic intracranial hypertension
The incidence of Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is increasing, likely in line with the worldwide epidemic of obesity. To date, there have been revisions in the terminology used and diagnostic criteria for IIH; these recognise the need to exclude secondary...Tough gig
‘The times they are a-changin’. The words of this Dylan classic resonate down the decades, and in the light of recent events, speak eloquently to life in 2022. It feels like a lifetime of change has passed since the Eye...Life in the glaucoma laboratory
When people ask me what life in the laboratory is really like, I often pause. On one hand, it is the romantic notion of pushing back the boundaries of science with the daily rhythm of experiments, data and easily obtained...My Top Five: Tips for organising and delivering a national ophthalmology educational series
Organising a national teaching series is both deeply rewarding and surprisingly complex. It requires more than just good content – it demands a well-thought-out purpose, seamless logistics, strong communication and meaningful evaluation. Over the past year, I had the opportunity...Bionic eyes: deciphering the neural circuitry of vision restoration
As the boundaries between technology and biology blur, retinal prosthetics, often dubbed ‘bionic eyes’, present a ground-breaking paradigm shift in addressing blindness. This article delves into the captivating scientific intricacies of these neural interfaces, exploring their mechanisms of action, current...OSA regulatory advice baton moves to new expert
The OSA’s regulatory advice service – a key element of membership for many optical businesses – is moving to safe new hands as Ann Blackmore retires after six years at the helm. Ann’s extensive knowledge of the optical landscape, both...Effective management of dry eye and ocular surface disease
Experts recommend a consistent approach to diagnosis, therapeutic targeting by disease subtype and escalation of therapy when tear substitutes are not sufficient. Experts call for a consistent, unified approach to diagnosis of dry eye disease (DED), with a new simple...
Balancing early and late surgical intervention for congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction
This retrospective study investigated the incidence of anisometropia and amblyopia by age of congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction (CNLDO) resolution. At Seattle children’s hospital, between 2007 and 2017, the outcomes of children with early versus late spontaneous resolution of CNLDO were...
Surgery for third nerve palsy (2019)
The authors present a new technique for split muscle medial transposition surgery of the lateral rectus plus union with the distal split stump of the medial rectus. This increases the length of the contracted lateral rectus through the addition of...
