A 49-year-old female patient was referred to our re-tina clinic because of a peripapillary vascular tumor detected during a routine eye examination. The fundus examination showed peripapillary ...

In short, this study demonstrates a reduced peripapillary flow index and vessel density in the retina of highly myopic eyes using OCT angiography, which might be a possible reason for the formation of ...

2 NHC Key Laboratory of Myopia (Fudan University), Shanghai ... and optic disc tilt, rotation and beta-zone peripapillary atrophy (β-PPA) were measured from fundus photographs taken 1 week after ...

This consequently results in an impairment of ATP production and overproduction of reactive oxygen species, thereby damaging the retinal ganglion cells (RGC) and their axons, and eventually causing ...

A new study of Chinese children and adults reported that investigated the effects of progression of myopia found that over the course of 10 years the best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and the visual ...

Over ten years, high myopia led to decreased BCVA and visual function, with increased moderate and severe visual impairment rates. The study involved 568 eyes from 284 patients, with a mean baseline ...

The original Bifocal Lenses In Nearsighted Kids (BLINK) Study showed that having children with myopia wear high-add power multifocal contact lenses slows its progression. Now, new results from the ...
