Cancer is thought to arise through the accumulation of genomic aberrations evolving under Darwinian selection. However, it remains unclear when associated with metastasis emerge during tumor evolution. Uveal melanoma (UM) most common primary eye cancer and frequently leads metastatic death, which strongly linked BAP1 mutations. Accordingly, UM ideally suited for studying clonal evolution competence. Here we analyze sequencing data from 151 samples using a customized bioinformatic pipeline,...
<h3>Importance</h3> The ophthalmology residency application process is critical for applicants and programs, knowledge about the preferences of would assist both groups in improving process. <h3>Objective</h3> To evaluate experiences applicants. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> This cross-sectional, nonvalidated survey was conducted online. All to Bascom Palmer Eye Institute program during 2018-2019 cycle were invited complete survey. Data collection occurred from April 1, 2019, 30,...
Purpose: This study evaluates a large language model, Generative Pre-trained Transformer 4 with vision, for diagnosing vitreoretinal diseases in real-world ophthalmology settings. Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional at Bascom Palmer Eye Clinic, analyzing patient data from January 2010 to March 2023, assesses vision's performance on retinal image analysis and International Classification of Diseases 10th revision coding across 2 groups: simpler cases (Group A) complex B) requiring more...
Demarcation laser photocoagulation (DLP) is an infrequently utilized modality for limited retinal detachments. The current study, a retrospective consecutive case series, reviewed anatomic and visual outcomes in these patients at single academic center. A search of the electronic medical record identified 10 eyes patients. Five were asymptomatic time initial treatment. had symptoms corresponding to detachment. remained stable without progression last follow-up (range 1-8 years). In 2 5...
Purpose: Cystoid macular edema (CME) following cataract surgery is a well-known entity. Less known regarding the risk factors of developing CME repair rhegmatogenous retinal detachments (RRD).Methods: This was multi-institutional study primary RRD surgeries from 1/1/2015 through 12/31/2015. The outcome development postoperative surgery. Post-operative optical coherence tomography imaging and 3 months follow-up were required.Results: There 1,466 eyes that met inclusion criteria, 140 (9.6%)...
This photo essay details a patient with self-inflicted laser-induced retinal injury progressing to full-thickness macular holes in both eyes. A 40-year-old presented after by handheld class 3 blue laser (450 nm) he purchased on the internet. The reported shining through window, which reflected beam back into his Visual acuity was measured at 20/400 initial fundus photographs revealed vitreous and preretinal hemorrhages right eye, multiple yellow-white fresh burns macula of left eye.

Purpose: To assess current trends in vitreoretinal surgical fellowship training for placement of secondary intraocular lenses (IOLs). Methods: A cross-sectional survey was administered to graduates who completed their program between 2019 and 2023. Results: Completed responses were obtained from 70 (22.5%) 311 eligible recipients. Training settings included academic (80%), hybrid academic/private practice (15%), private (5%). During fellowship, the majority respondents reported 10 or fewer...
To identify geographic and socioeconomic variables predictive of residential proximity to retinopathy prematurity (ROP) clinical trial locations.This cross-sectional epidemiological study used census tract-level data from three national public sets trial-level ClinicalTrials.gov. Socioeconomic predictors driving distance time the nearest ROP location were identified. Primary outcomes >60 minutes miles traveled site.Multivariate analysis showed that residents more likely travel site if they...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To characterize patient-identified barriers to care in those non-compliant with retina appointments during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. PATIENTS METHODS: Inclusion criteria included patients from March 1, 2020 May 2020. Ultimately, 1,345 were invited complete a 14-question survey. A retrospective chart review correlated clinical and demographic information. Univariate logistic regression, independent-samples t -test, Pearson correlation...

To identify baseline ocular and systemic factors associated with central subfield thickness (CST) fluctuations in patients diabetic macular edema (DME) using data from Diabetic Retinopathy Clinical Research Protocols T V.Post hoc analysis of clinical trial databases.Patients V.The standard deviation (SD) all recorded CSTs for each patient during Protocol's study period was calculated. The CST SD (corresponding to fluctuations) analyzed against linear regression analyses. Each Protocol...
To compare risk factors for poor visual outcomes in patients undergoing primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) repair and to develop a scoring system.Analysis of the Primary Retinal Outcomes (PRO) study, multicentre interventional cohort consecutive RRD surgeries performed 2015. The main outcome measure was (Snellen VA ≤20/200).A total 1178 cases were included. mean preoperative postoperative logMARs 1.1±1.1 (20/250) 0.5±0.7 (20/63), respectively. Multivariable logistic regression...
