The intricate parallels in structure and function between the human retina central nervous system designate as a prospective avenue for understanding brain-related processes. This review extensively explores shared physiopathological mechanisms connecting age-related macular degeneration (AMD) proteinopathies, with specific focus on tauopathies. pivotal involvement of oxidative stress cellular senescence emerges key drivers pathogenesis both conditions. Uncovering these elements not only has...
Severe visual deprivation during infancy can lead to long-term changes in ocular development, including significant differences axial length (AL) between eyes. This case report presents three adult patients with monocular infantile who developed substantial AL interocular differences. The aim is explore the impact of early on and its potential implications for myopia progression.
Objectives: This study aimed to assess the role of macular pigment optical density (MPOD) in patients with a full-thickness hole (FTMH) compared healthy controls, evaluating postoperative changes MPOD and exploring potential correlations visual outcomes. Methods: prospective, cross-sectional, comparative included 16 eyes from FTMH who achieved anatomical closure following pars plana vitrectomy inverted ILM flap technique. Each eye underwent comprehensive ophthalmologic examination, including...
Aims Refractive lens exchange (RLE) is becoming a popular refractive solution for patients ineligible corneal surgeries or phakic intraocular lenses. However, concerns regarding retinal detachment (RD) risk persist. Methods A systematic literature review and meta-analysis was performed in Medline Scopus. The final search updated on 30 March 2024. Results Of 2415 full-text screening reports, 40 studies met inclusion criteria, encompassing 8 592 380 eyes. This included 20 264 eyes that...
Purpose Cerebrospinal fluid venous fistulas (CVFs) are a frequently underrecognized cause of cerebrospinal (CSF) leaks, leading to intracranial hypotension and wide range symptoms, including visual disturbances. This case highlights the critical role ophthalmologists in identifying CVFs as unexplained progressive vision loss. Methods We present 45-year-old woman who developed field loss over 15 years, ultimately resulting blindness one eye. Early neuroimaging testing were normal despite...
Abstract Purpose To establish expert consensus on guidelines for implementing glaucoma virtual clinics in Italy, focusing patient suitability, essential clinical assessments and staffing requirements. Methods A modified Delphi method was used to achieve among selected Italian specialists. The steering group developed a structured questionnaire with 66 items across key areas: Patient Categories, Clinical Assessments, Roles Staffing Guidelines clinic implementation. panel of experts reviewed...
Keratoconus is a bilateral and asymmetric degenerative eye disease that causes corneal thinning bowing, leading to irregular astigmatism vision loss. Although environmental genetic factors contribute the disease’s development, exact cause underlying pathological mechanism remain unknown. In this review, we comprehensively explore latest pathophysiological mechanisms of keratoconus, focusing on oxidative damage inflammation. Senescence emerges as key driver keratoconus pathogenesis....
Purpose: To compare the performance of 3 commercially available tomographers (the Pentacam Scheimpflug camera, swept-source optical coherence tomography Casia, and blue light slit-scanning tomographer Precisio) in identification patterns associated with Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) decompensation. Methods: This was a clinic-based cross-sectional imaging study. Pachymetry maps posterior surface elevation were acquired devices from 61 eyes affected by FECD. The graded according...
Aims/Purpose: To evaluate the symptomatic and clinical efficacy in vivo confocal microscopy (IVCM) changes of cornea after allogeneic serum eye drop therapy patients with Sjögren's syndrome (SS)‐related Dry Eye Disease (DED). Methods: In this prospective study 15 (30 eyes) primary or secondary SS‐related DED were evaluated for Ocular Surface Index (OSDI) questionnaire, ocular inflammation grade, Schirmer's test, tear film break‐up time (TBUT), corneal conjunctival staining, analysis....

Purpose To report a challenging Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty (DMEK) case, complicated by intraoperative aqueous misdirection and spontaneous anterior chamber fibrin reaction. Methods A 70-year-old female affected corneal edema due to Fuchs endothelial dystrophy underwent triple procedure (cataract extraction - IOL implantation DMEK surgery) in her left eye. This illustrates the management of complications syndrome Results Despite optimal posterior pressure thorough removal...
This study aimed to evaluate the impact of Fabry disease (FD) on retinal microvasculature using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA), arterial stiffness, and resistive index (RI) central artery (CRA) in early stages. Twenty-nine genetically confirmed FD patients twenty-six healthy controls were enrolled. Vessel density (VD) values superficial, deep, choriocapillaris plexuses (SCP, DCP, CC) measured via OCTA. CRA RI was studied color Doppler grayscale sonography, aortic pulse wave...
We have theoretically analyzed the Jahn-Teller effect in near-infrared absorption spectrum of ${\mathrm{Fe}}^{2+}$ ions CdTe. assumed a linear active interaction on $^{5}\mathrm{T}_{2}$ levels 3${d}^{6}$ electrons impurity; phonon symmetry taken into account is ${\ensuremath{\Gamma}}_{3}$. The spin-orbit has also been included. By means recursion method and an appropriate choice dipole-carrying initial state, we calculated nonperturbative way CdTe, including large number phonons. theoretical...
Water clusters are multimers of water molecules held together by hydrogen bonds. In the present work, multiphoton ionization in UV range coupled with time flight mass spectrometry has been applied to up 160 order obtain information on electronic states different sizes dimensions that can approximate bulk phase. The dependence ion intensities and their metastable fragments produced laser at 355 nm power density indicates a (3+1)-photon resonance-enhanced process. It also explains large...
The vibronic model for ${\mathrm{Fe}}^{2+}$ impurities in zinc sulfide crystals is analyzed theoretically with the recursion method. It shown that far-infrared absorption spectrum of iron ions can be understood by taking into account coupling electronic state $^{5}\mathrm{T}_{2}$ to phonons symmetry ${\ensuremath{\Gamma}}_{3}$ three different energy ranges: a low-energy phonon frequency \ensuremath{\Elzxh}${\ensuremath{\omega}}_{1}$\ensuremath{\approxeq}25...
This paper is the second of a series dealing with clusters formation mechanism. In part 1, water addition an electrophilic molecule such as ethanol were studied by Time Of Flight Mass Spectrometry (TOFMS). distributions molecular ethanol, and ethanol–water mixed clusters, obtained means two different ionization methods: Electron Ionization (EI) picosecond laser Photo–Ionization (PI) at wavelength 355 nm. 2, same experimental approach was employed to obtain mass spectra generated...
