Macular imagery: observing the visual sensations pre- and post-Jetrea injections

A 63-year-old woman, a professional painter, was diagnosed with vitreomacular traction (VMT) in 2017. She had a history of metamorphopsia, drop in visual acuity (VA) in the left eye (6/6 in the RE; 6/18 in the LE), foveal vitreomacular traction...

Artificial intelligence and oculomics: Improving global health

The application of artificial intelligence (AI), and in particular deep learning, to high-resolution ocular imaging has led to many new discoveries, enabling the prediction of multiple different systemic diseases from ocular biomarkers. This emerging field is known as ‘oculomics’ [1]....

Effect of minor trauma in eyes with previously undiagnosed angioid streaks

Angioid streaks (AS) may be associated with pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE), Paget’s disease, haemoglobulinopathies, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome or abetalipoproteinaemia. Histopathology showed retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and choriocapillaris loss, elastic fibre degeneration, calcium deposition, active choroidal neovascular membrane (CNVM) and vascular endothelial growth...

In conversation with Robert Henderson

Revolutionary eye treatments offer hope for children facing blindness from CLN2 batten disease. Robert Henderson discusses this, and his use of Heidelberg Engineering’s Spectralis device to better combat it. Pioneering research from Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) and the University...

Genetic therapy gives infants life-changing improvements in sight

Four young children have gained life-changing improvements in sight following treatment with a pioneering new genetic medicine through Moorfields Eye Hospital and UCL Institute of Ophthalmology, with the support of MeiraGTx. The children were born with a severe impairment to...

Ocular electrophysiology

A 34-year-old woman, who is a CEO in a multinational firm, has been losing vision over the last 12 months. She has seen her opticians, who initially tried different glasses but could not improve things. Clinical examination is unremarkable. How...

Dropless cataract surgery

Dropless cataract surgery (DCS) describes the complete provision of anti-inflammatory and antibiotic prophylaxis intraoperatively. This eliminates the need for postoperative eyedrops to be self-administered by the patient and thus is also known as ‘dropless after cataract surgery’ (DACS) (n.b. this...

Post hoc analysis of the CANTREAT randomised trial

CANTREAT, a Canadian multicentre two-year randomised trial compares treat and extend treatment (T&E) relative to the monthly administration of Ranibizumab in nAMD. Two-hundred and eighty-five treatment-naïve patients with nAMD were randomised to receive either a once-monthly dosing or T&E regimen...

Emerging therapies for geographic atrophy: complement inhibitors show potential to slow progression and preserve RPE and photoreceptor integrity

Geographic atrophy (GA) is an advanced form of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) characterised by progressive, irreversible loss of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and photoreceptors and is estimated to account for approximately 10% of AMD-related blindness [1-4]. The Age-Related Eye...

Redefining healthcare through the eyes

The future of healthcare is being shaped by innovation in eyecare and in particular a field known as oculomics. This discipline leverages ocular biomarkers to provide insights into various health conditions, including cardiovascular diseases and psychological or neurological disorders [1]....
