Purpose: To investigate the association between blepharoptosis (ptosis) and psychosocial stress levels, depression, and anxiety in a diverse population of American adults.
Methods: Utilizing data from the National Institutes of Health's All of Us Research Program, we analyzed responses from 104,456 participants who completed psychosocial assessments. Participants with a history of a ptosis diagnosis were 1:3 matched with controls using propensity score calculated based on demographics and comorbidities.
Purpose: To determine the association between dry eye disease (DED) and mental health conditions in a sociodemographically diverse nationwide population of Americans.
Design: Cross-sectional study.
Methods: We used the National Institute of Health's All of Us Research Program database to identify 18257 participants with DED who were propensity score matched in a 1:3 ratio to participants without DED.
Objective: To investigate outcomes of trabeculectomy ab externo in African ancestry primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) patients, and to analyze the impact of demographic and phenotypic factors on surgical success and complication rates.
Patients And Methods: A retrospective case-control study enrolled 63 eyes of 55 POAG cases who underwent trabeculectomy ab externo. Data on demographics, family glaucoma history, surgical specifics, and pre/postoperative measures (intraocular pressure, visual acuity, visual field, medication usage, complications within one year) were collected.
Purpose: This study was to assess corneal epithelial thickness (CET) in patients with Sjogren's disease (SjD).
Methods: A retrospective chart review was conducted of SjD patients from September 2021 to January 2022. Patient demographics, unanesthetized Schirmer's test, serologic markers, and symptoms as measured by the Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) were reviewed.
Purpose: The International Classification of Retinopathy of Prematurity, Third Edition (ICROP3), acknowledged that plus-like retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) vascular changes occurs along a spectrum. Historically, clinician-experts demonstrate variable agreement for plus diagnosis. We developed a 9-photograph reference image set for grading plus-like changes and compared intergrader agreement of the set with standard grading with no plus, preplus, and plus disease.

Methods: For preterm infants with acceptable OCT images at 32 ± 1 weeks postmenstrual age (PMA), we extracted the following measures: total retina, inner retinal layer (IRL), and outer retinal layer (ORL) thicknesses at the fovea and the parafovea, inner nuclear layer (INL) and choroidal thickness, parafovea/fovea (P/F) ratio, and presence of macular edema.
Background: Choroidal abnormalities (CAs) visualized on near-infrared reflectance (NIR) imaging are a new diagnostic criterion for neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), but the association between the presence of CAs and visual function remains unknown. This study evaluated the relationship between visual acuity (VA) with the presence, number, or total area of CAs visualized by NIR in children with NF1-associated optic pathway gliomas (NF1-OPGs).
Methods: Patients (<18 years) enrolled in a prospective longitudinal study of children with NF1-associated OPGs from 3 institutions were eligible if they had optical coherence tomography (OCT) of the macula (Heidelberg Spectralis) with ≥1 year of follow-up.
