Fotopic and scotopic retinal sensitivity and foveal fixation normal values using microperimetry in healthy population.

Purpose: To determine normal values of fotopic and scotopic retinal sensitivity and foveal fixation obtained by microperimetry, using MP3-S microperimeter (Nidek, Gamagori, Japan), in a healthy population.

Methods: Observational, crossectional, single centre study. Fotopic and scotopic microperimetry was performed using with a customized 13-point fovea-centered pattern in healthy volunteers without ocular pathology.

Microperimetry in hydroxychloroquine macular toxicity.

The aim was to evaluate the value of microperimetry (MP) in the early detection of toxic maculopathy caused by HCQ treatment in patients with normal fundoscopy, as well as normal structural optical coherence tomography (OCT). Microperimetry was performed in 13 patients under hydroxychloroquine treatment, who did not present fundoscopic or structural OCT alterations compatible with maculopathy. We used Nidek MP3s equipment (Nidek, Gamagori, Japan) with a 13-point pattern centered in fovea, in mesopic mode and in scotopic mode.

Resident physician concordance in tomographic fluid detection in näive patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

Purpose: To analyze the presence of subretinal fluid (SRF), intraretinal fluid (IRF) and subretinal pigment epithelial fluid (SRPEF) in näive patients with exudative neovascular AMD at baseline and at one year follow-up and treatment, in clinical practice, and perform a concordance analysis between resident physicians.

Methods: A retrospective analysis of the näive patients who attended our service for 6months between 2016-2017 by neovascular AMD was performed. Optical coherence tomography (OCT), at baseline and at one year follow-up, were analyzed from independently by two resident doctors, determined the presence or not of SRF, IRF, SRPEF.
