State-of-the-art eye trackers provide valuable information for diagnosing reading problems by measuring and interpreting people's gaze paths as they read through text. Abnormal conditions such as visual field defects, however, can seriously confound most of today's existing methods for interpreting reading gaze patterns. Our objective was to research how visual field defects impact reading gaze path patterns, so the effects of such neurological pathologies can be explicitly incorporated into more comprehensive reading diagnosis methodologies.

- The study aimed to assess the agreement between peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (pRNFL) and foveal thickness (FT) measurements using three different SD-OCT devices in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients and healthy controls.
- Differences were noted in pRNFL and FT measurements between MS patients with a history of optic neuritis (ON) and those without, while healthy subjects showed similar results across devices.
- The findings underscore the need for standardization in OCT measurements to ensure accurate assessment of MS and to establish reference values for healthy individuals.
The aim of this study is to assess the results of episcleral brachytherapy as treatment of retinal vasoproliferative tumors (RVTs) in a referral Intraocular Tumors Unit (ITU). A retrospective review of all patients diagnosed with vasoproliferative tumors of the retina and treated with episcleral brachytherapy in the ITU, University Hospital of Valladolid between 2009 and 2015 was done. Five patients accomplished the inclusion criteria.

Introduction: Migraine and stroke are associated with a higher frequency than expected. Numerous studies have shown a significant, but controversial, association between migraine and vascular disease, not only in cerebral but also in other arterial beds. The full spectrum of this relationship includes coexisting stroke and migraine, stroke with clinical features of migraine and migraine-induced stroke.
