Smartphone Slit Lamp Imaging-Usability and Quality Assessment.

Purpose: To assess the usability and image quality of a smartphone adapter for direct slit lamp imaging.

Methods: A single-center, prospective, clinical study conducted in the Department of Ophthalmology at the University Hospital Zurich, Switzerland. The smartphone group consisted of 26 medical staff (consultants, residents, and students).

Choriocapillary Blood Flow in Myopic Subjects Measured With OCT Angiography.

Background And Objective: To investigate choriocapillary blood flow in myopic eyes using optical coherence tomography angiography.

Patients And Methods: Seventy-eight myopic and 79 age-matched healthy eyes were included in this study, with myopia defined as a spherical equivalent refraction (SER) between -1 diopters (D) and -6 D. Quantitative measurements of the choriocapillaris were obtained using the Avanti RTVue XR with AngioVue.

Choriocapillaris Flow Density Negatively Correlates With Advancing Age on Spectral-Domain Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography.

Background And Objective: To correlate subfoveal choriocapillaris (CC) flow density with age using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography angiography (SD-OCTA).

Patients And Methods: One hundred eighty-three eyes of 94 subjects (66 female, 28 male) were enrolled. Included were healthy subjects between the ages of 21 and 82 years without any history of vitreoretinal disease.

Optical coherence tomography angiography indicates associations of the retinal vascular network and disease activity in multiple sclerosis.

Background: Patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and clinically isolated syndrome (CIS) may show alterations of retinal layer architecture as measured by optical coherence tomography. Little is known about changes in the retinal vascular network during MS.

Objective: To characterize retinal vessel structures in patients with MS and CIS and to test for associations with MS disease activity.
