Tamoxifen is a selective estrogen receptor modulator used to treat hormone receptor-positive breast cancer. Studies have found that patients undergoing this therapy can experience types of retinal ...

In combination with other OCT markers, this could facilitate a more comprehensive assessment and prediction of GA progression. This image from the study shows correspondence between perilesional ...

A new study suggests this vascular dysfunction may not be confined to the eye: patients with varicose veins, a common ...

A preliminary study found lower acuity, stereopsis and motility test scores, though cognitive demands and uncorrected refractive issues may have contributed to some differences. In a subgroup of ...

In addition to tailoring screening programs to high-risk populations such as pseudoexfoliation patients, effective approaches should also prioritize the detection of more severe cases requiring ...

Paracentral acute middle maculopathy (PAMM) on OCT may help practitioners identify arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (AAION), according to a multicenter US study published in American ...

Microperimetry and contrast sensitivity scores dropped the most in patients with early to intermediate disease, while most other vision tests were unaffected. Early to intermediate age-related macular ...

Different uveitis subtypes present with varying levels and types of macular complications, making detection and diagnosis more difficult. In this study, sarcoidosis had the highest epiretinal membrane ...

This study shows that prompt treatment of macula-off RD is associated not only with better final VA but also greater VA improvement. Photo: Mark Dunbar, OD. Click image to enlarge. There is a growing ...

As diagnostic technology improves, so too does our understanding of the natural history of various conditions amenable to imaging. Polarization-sensitive OCT can measure collagen birefringence, an ...

For many patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), the eyes offer an early window into the disease's trajectory. A new report from the American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO) found that OCT measurements ...

Among 12,227 TNF-α inhibitor users and more than 1.3 million controls, the researchers matched 11,915 pairs with similar ...
