Comparison between findings in OCTA and FA in patients with diabetic retinopathy
In this study the authors present a prospective cross-sectional comparative study of typical findings of diabetic retinopathy to analyse the agreement between the image modalities of optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) and fluorescein angiography (FA). Fifty-three eyes of 42 patients...
Inflammation and microvascular changes in diabetic retinopathy
Studies have shown that neurodegeneration and inflammation in the retina start early in diabetic retinopathy (DR) and can be present before the latter is clinically evident. The aim of this retrospective review of 99 diabetic patients was to evaluate retinal...
Patient reported outcomes in adolescents with inherited retinal diseases
This was a two-centre validation study of two sets of patient reported outcome measures (PROMS) for adolescents (13-17- years-old) with inherited retinal diseases. The measures were the Michigan Retinal Degeneration Questionnaire (MRDQ) and the Michigan Vision-Related Anxiety Questionnaire (MVAQ). Both...
Blood pressure association with primary open angle glaucoma severity
This prospective observational study involved 47 patients diagnosed with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) examined to investigate their postural blood pressure response and its potential correlation with the severity of glaucomatous optic neuropathy (GON). Participants underwent intraocular pressure and systemic...
Correlations of fusional convergence with suppression depth in control of exotropia
This study was undertaken to investigate the differences in fusional convergence during refusion in patients with intermittent exotropia based on suppression depth and exotropia control. This was a cross-sectional study of 25 patients; 15 female and 10 male aged mean...Non-organic visual loss
Patients can present to eye departments with various signs and symptoms (mostly symptoms) with no obvious organic cause. These patients can be labelled with any of a wide range of diagnoses such as functional visual loss, functional overlay, psychosomatic reaction...“Herr Doktor, I can’t see but I am driving”
