Article Synopsis
  • - The study aimed to evaluate patients with idiopathic epiretinal membranes (ERM) using immunohistochemical, functional, and anatomical methods, focusing on 24 surgical specimens from a specific hospital in Spain.
  • - Patients underwent comprehensive ophthalmological exams, including best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) measurements and spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) assessments, both before and three months after surgery.
  • - Results showed a significant presence of Müller cells and inflammatory cells (microglia and macrophages) in ERMs, with findings suggesting that the stage of ERM influences the presence of these cells and their relationship with retinal integrity as measured by SD-OCT.

We studied short- and long-term effects of intravitreal injection of -methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) on melanopsin-containing (m) and non-melanopsin-containing (Brn3a) retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). In adult SD-rats, the left eye received a single intravitreal injection of 5µL of 100nM NMDA. At 3 and 15 months, retinal thickness was measured in vivo using Spectral Domain-Optical Coherence Tomography (SD-OCT).
