The evolving landscape of diabetic retinopathy
This article outlines efforts to modernise clinically meaningful staging systems and endpoints for diabetic retinal disease (DRD). During a workshop involving over 100 international experts, participants emphasised the need for validated structural and functional endpoints based on the retinal neurovascular...
Sebaceous gland carcinoma
This is a review of 241 patients diagnosed with periocular sebaceous gland carcinoma which investigates whether age at presentation influences either the clinical presentation or the outcomes of treatment. Twelve percent of patients were classified as young (<40 years old),...Safety and efficacy of a nurse-led intravitreal injection service using an Precivia® injection assist device
Nurse-led intravitreal injections have become of great importance for busy eye units. In this article, the authors present safety data from five years of a nurse-led service with the use of the Precivia® intravitreal injection assist device. Intravitreal injections of...
Endophthalmitis after intravitreal injections in France
In this nationwide, retrospective, multicentre case series, the authors looked at the incidence and characteristics of endophthalmitis after intravitreal injections of anti-VEGFs and steroids, given for a variety of posterior segment conditions (macular oedema secondary to diabetes or retinal vein...
RPE atrophy onset in treated nAMD
In this study the authors aim to evaluate the role of various factors for the development of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) atrophy over a period of five years in patients with nAMD. Fifty-two newly diagnosed nAMD patients with complete absence...Pathological myopia: a trainer’s perceptive
High myopia is defined as myopic refraction of greater than -6 dioptres with an axial length greater than 26.5mm, while pathological myopia is myopic refraction with posterior pole degeneration [1]. These degenerative changes can affect a young population and in...Considerations in the management of retinal disorders
Vision research presentations and publications explore practice considerations in the management of AMD and diabetic retinopathy. Over the past two decades in Europe there has been a decreasing prevalence of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and an improvement in visual acuity...Advances and developments in medical retina
The author provides an update on late breaking clinical trial results in neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) and presentations on diabetes management from the American Academy of Ophthalmology Retina Subspecialty Day, held during the Academy’s annual meeting in Chicago, October...Genetic profiling for personalised healthcare solutions in AMD – an update
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a multifactorial condition influenced by genetics and lifestyle factors (Table 1). This article outlines several recent advances in AMD genetics, as well as evolving therapeutic concepts and established practical measures for the treatment and /...
Evaluation of the association between diabetes autoantibodies and development of early diabetic retinopathy in type 1 diabetes
This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between diabetes autoantibodies and the development of early diabetic retinopathy (DR) to assess the role of autoimmunity in retinopathy. The study included 18 boys and 44 girls with type 1 diabetes mellitus...
Macular measurements for amblyopic eyes
This study aimed to evaluate the macular parameters including foveal avascular zone (FAV) size and vessel density in amblyopia vs fellow eyes. The study included 23 unilateral amblyopia children (9.86 ±3.12 years; 52.2% female) and non-amblyopia control eyes (8.67 ±2.06...
