Purpose: This study aimed to explore the impact of GSK840 on retinal neuronal injury after retinal ischemia/reperfusion (IR) and its associated mechanism.

Methods: We established an in vivo mouse model of IR and an in vitro model of oxygen and glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGDR) in primary mouse retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). GSK840, a small-molecule compound, was used to specifically inhibit RIPK3/MLKL-dependent necroptosis.

Normal tension glaucoma (NTG) is referred to as a progressive degenerative disorder of the retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), resulting in nonreversible visual defects, despite intraocular pressure levels within the statistically normal range. Current therapeutic strategies for NTG yield limited benefits. Excitatory amino acid carrier 1 (EAAC1) knockout (EAAC1 ) in mice has been shown to induce RGC degeneration without elevating intraocular pressure, mimicking pathological characteristics of NTG.

Purpose: To explore the metabolic profiles in the aqueous humor (AH) of patients with congenital ectopia lentis (CEL).

Methods: We conducted a comprehensive analysis of the metabolites of AH samples of patients with CEL ( = 22) and age-matched patients ( = 22) with congenital cataract by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography tandem-mass spectrometry. The metabolomic characteristics were visualized by principal component analysis, orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis and heat map.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to quantify the characteristics of the tilt and decentration of the IOL after trans-scleral suture fixation surgery in congenital ectopia lentis (CEL) patients.

Methods: The clinical characteristics of 70 CEL patients at Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center in China were retrospectively analyzed. The tilt and decentration of intraocular lens (IOL) were measured by using a Pentacam and compared between different axial length (AL) subgroups.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics of corneal higher-order aberrations (HOAs) in patients with congenital ectopia lentis (CEL).

Methods: Clinical characteristics and HOAs of 60 patients with CEL and 75 healthy controls at Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center in China were retrospectively analyzed. The Q value and the corneal HOAs in the CEL group and the controls were measured by using Pentacam and compared value between the CEL and control groups.
