European Glaucoma Society - A guide on surgical innovation for glaucoma.

PROLOGUE:

Fellow of the European board of ophthalmology glaucoma examination and diploma (FEBOS-Gl): update on 8 years of experience and future perspectives.

Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. Early diagnosis and appropriate management of the disease are essential to avoid a significant impact on the quality of life of millions of patients and the socioeconomic impact on societies. Education is the hallmark of good medical care.

A COVID-19-Related Retinopathy Case Report.

The recent outbreak of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 has been declared a worldwide pandemic by the WHO. Within various multi-organ involvements, several ocular manifestations have been described. We report the case of a patient diagnosed with COVID-19 who presented with a progressive increase of bilateral cotton wool spots over a 1-week period, despite quick and complete recovery of systemic signs of the disease and no ocular symptoms.

Retinal Manifestations in Patients with COVID-19: A Prospective Cohort Study.

The recent outbreak of the Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 has been declared a worldwide pandemic. Within various multi-organ involvement, several ocular manifestations have been described, such as conjunctivitis and retinopathy. The prevalence and severity of retinal lesions and their relation to the severity of the systemic disease are unknown.

Age-related changes in the fractal dimension of the retinal microvasculature, effects of cardiovascular risk factors and smoking behaviour.

Purpose: This cross-sectional study investigates the association between retinal vessel complexity and age and studies the effects of cardiovascular health determinants.

Methods: Retinal vessel complexity was assessed by calculating the box-counting fractal dimension (D ) from digital fundus photographs of 850 subjects (3-97 years). All photographs were labelled as 'non-pathological' by the treating ophthalmologist.
