This study investigates the efficacy of predicting age-related macular degeneration (AMD) activity through deep neural networks (DNN) using a cross-instrument training dataset composed of Optical coherence tomography-angiography (OCTA) images from two different manufacturers. A retrospective cross-sectional study analyzed 2D vascular en-face OCTA images from Heidelberg Spectralis (1478 samples: 1102 training, 276 validation, 100 testing) and Optovue Solix (1003 samples: 754 training, 189 validation, 60 testing). OCTA scans were labeled based on clinical diagnoses and adjacent B-scan OCT fluid information, categorizing activity into normal, dry AMD, active wet AMD, and wet AMD in remission.

Article Synopsis
- The review discusses subthreshold micropulse laser (SML) therapy, which is a low-impact treatment for retinal issues, particularly diabetic retinopathy (DR).
- It analyzes various studies that show SML therapy as a safe and effective alternative to traditional treatments, with no damage to retinal tissue.
- The conclusion emphasizes the potential of SML therapy to complement existing DR treatments and highlights ongoing research to improve its application and understanding.
