OCT-A angiography can help reveal early neurodegenerative disease signs, offering a non-invasive method for identifying high-risk patients through retinal analysis.

Ahead of the September 8 meeting in Paris, the program co-chair of the event and current president of the American Academy of Ophthalmology discusses how the workshop aims to shape consensus on guidelines, research priorities, and emerging therapies in myopia control.

From Nobel laureates to AI-driven research, the Wilmer Eye Institute honors a century of transforming vision science and care.

Andrew G. Lee, MD, and Drew Carey, MD, discuss how baseline optical coherence tomography parameters can help ophthalmologists counsel patients and make more informed decisions after ethambutol-associated optic neuropathy.

In cases with optic nerve hyperfluorescence or neurologic symptoms, prompt neuroimaging is warranted to rule out neuro-Behcet disease and guide multidisciplinary management.

From revised patient flow to smarter tech adoption, ophthalmologists share which changes from 2020 have become cornerstones of modern care—and how they’re preparing for the next big disruption

A combination of canaloplasty and goniotomy provides sustained IOP reduction and decreases medication burden with a strong safety profile, making it a valuable option for glaucoma management.

An AI model for target IOP prediction performs as well as glaucoma specialists, offering a promising tool to enhance glaucoma management, especially for nonspecialists.

Andrew G. Lee, MD, and Drew Carey, MD, return for this latest episode of the "NeuroOp Guru" to discuss the variable presentations of somatic mitochondrial mutations and the importance of muscle biopsy in diagnosing low heteroplasmy in mitochondrial diseases.

Clinician-scientists play a vital role in advancing ophthalmology by balancing patient care with research, leveraging clinical insights to drive impactful discoveries, and collaborating across disciplines to stay at the forefront of innovation.

Shameema Sikder, MD; and T. Y. Alvin Liu, MD, highlight the technology’s role in bridging challenges and successes for clinical practice.

As Ophthalmology Times celebrates 50 years of publication and the Wilmer Eye Institute marks 100 years of academic leadership, Peter J. McDonnell, MD, reflects on their shared commitment to helping ophthalmologists improve patient outcomes.

A Johns Hopkins study reveals that anti-VEGF treatments for wet AMD may unintentionally elevate ANGPTL4, a protein that promotes blood vessel growth. Combining anti-VEGF with an experimental drug targeting HIF-1 could enhance vision outcomes and prevent vision loss.
