The research saw that new-onset full-thickness macular holes (FTMHs), especially those resulting from blunt ocular trauma, might close spontaneously without the need for a surgical intervention.

This study of patients was designed to identify unexpected adverse effects of these new pharmacologic therapies that may not have been observed or anticipated during clinical research trials. The studied drugs were biosimilars to the reference drug ranibizumab.

Investigators set out to evaluate how well an AI system works when integrated into a handheld smartphone-based retinal camera to screen patients for DR using 1 retinal image in each eye.

Researchers investigated the relationship between visual functioning measured using the National Eye Institute 25-Item Visual Function Questionnaire (VFQ-25) and mortality in patients with various stages of AMD.

While these injections are the standard treatment for this patient population, the investigators found a subgroup of patients who had severe visual loss between 2 consecutive intravitreal injections.
