According to Dr Gregor S. Reiter, the results from the multicentre Phase 3 clinical trial demonstrated that fluid volumes in patients with nAMD can be precisely identified, localised and measured in real-time using artificial intelligence.

Automated quantitative fluid analyses are enabling personalised treatments, better patient outcomes.

At the 22nd EURETINA World Congress in Hamburg, Germany,Isabelle Audo, MD, reported that voretigene neparvovec used to treat patients with a RPE65-related inherited retinal dystrophy, showed good safety and efficacy at the 1-year time point of the LIGHT Study.

Tunde Peto, MD, PhD, shares some ophthalmic initiatives she's excited about in light of EURETINA 2022.

The white noise and classical music listened to by the preterm infants during ROP examinations showed positive effects on pain and heart rate and oxygen saturation values.

At the 1-month evaluation, the full-field stimulus threshold had median decrease of -33.2 decibels (dB) (-33.7; -19.8) dB, which remained stable until the last assessment. Visual fields and visual acuity did not change significantly.

They advised that clinicians should be aware of this spectrum of retinal involvement after COVID-19 infections and emphasized the importance of a fundus evaluation.

Tunde Peto, MD, PhD, discussed two of her presentations at EURETINA 2022: "UK Biobank retinal imaging grading: methodology, baseline characteristics and findings for common ocular diseases" and "Retinal phenotyping of different variants of Alzheimer’s disease using ultra-widefield imaging."

Investigators advised that clinicians should be aware of this spectrum of retinal involvement after COVID-19 infections and emphasized the importance of a fundus evaluation.

The investigators explained that elevated angle-closure-related intraocular pressure may aggregate the visual impairment in patients with retinitis pigmentosa.

European investigators describe how they address complications associated with silicone oil endotamponade in vitreoretinal surgery.

The Phase 2 Altitude study is an open-label, randomized, controlled, dose-escalation evaluation of RGX-314, evaluating the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of suprachoroidal delivery of RGX-314 in patients with moderately severe/severe non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy or mild proliferative diabetic retinopathy.

The 22nd European Society of Retina Specialists Congress kicks off Thursday at the Congress Centre Hamburg in Hamburg, Germany.

Results from our recent poll regarding EURETINA 2022 attendance indicate that most ophthalmologists and retina specialists plan to participate in the annual Congress in person in Hamburg, Germany.

The American Academy of Ophthalmology annual meeting is coming to Chicago, Illinois from September 30 to October 3, featuring Subspecialty Days and a virtual component. The event will be held at Chicago’s McCormick Place, billed as the largest convention center in North America and located on the shore of Lake Michigan.

The stated core foundation of the Women in Retina program is that “the best innovations happen when diverse people with different perspectives collaborate.” The program will help ESRS harness these perspectives and challenge the way things are done and allow for them to be done better.

The contest will take place as part of World Retina Day, Saturday, September 3, from 8:30-9:30 CEST in Hall X2/Channel 7.
