Article Synopsis
- * Results showed that, at the start, retinal thickness in these patients was significantly lower compared to healthy peers, and it continued to thin over time, with an average annual decline of 6.70 µm.
- * Despite no significant change in volume of certain retinal structures during follow-up, the findings suggest ongoing retinal thinning post-treatment, warranting long-term monitoring for affected patients.
Article Synopsis
- Ultra-widefield retinal imaging is becoming popular in eye care for spotting peripheral retinal issues, but their clinical significance is still uncertain.
- This study aims to validate a new grading system for these abnormalities, explore their prevalence in patients, and examine their links to retinal diseases.
- Results showed that 64.4% of patients had peripheral abnormalities, with common issues like drusen linked to age-related diseases, highlighting the need for more research on peripheral findings.
This study aimed to identify retinal vessel whitening outside the standard Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) fields and to correlate the findings with vision and severity of diabetic retinopathy. Patients with diabetes mellitus who were seen in the retinal clinic to assess diabetic retinopathy status were included. Retinal vessel whitening was identified using ultra-widefield imaging.
