Prcis: The screening program using imo strongly correlates with 10-2 Standard automated perimetry in detecting central visual field defects in early glaucoma, highlighting its potential as a valuable tool for efficient screening and severity quantification.

Purpose: To investigate the correlation between abnormalities within the central 10° of the screening program using imo, a portable head-mounted perimeter, and 10-2 standard automated perimetry in early-stage glaucoma with central visual field defects.

Methods: This retrospective study included early glaucoma with (26 eyes) and without (38 eyes) central visual field defects.

Article Synopsis
  • The study compared the glaucoma detection accuracy of a new head-mounted binocular visual perimeter screening program (ISP) with that of frequency doubling technology (FDT).
  • It involved 168 eyes (including non-glaucoma and glaucomatous eyes) and found that ISP performed comparably or better than FDT in detecting different stages of glaucoma, with specific AUC values reported.
  • Additionally, ISP required significantly less testing time than FDT, suggesting it could be an effective and efficient tool for glaucoma screening in larger populations.

Purpose: This study sought to identify the most effective testing program for detecting visual-field defects in mild-stage glaucoma with central visual-field defects.

Design: A multicenter, retrospective diagnostic testing evaluation.

Participants: The study involved 93 eyes (83 patients) with mild-stage glaucoma (median mean deviation [interquartile range]: -1.

Prcis: A novel visual field screening program with a head-mounted perimeter 'imo' could detect glaucoma at all stages in a short time with high accuracy.

Purpose: The present study aimed to examine the accuracy and availability of a novel glaucoma visual field screening program using a head-mounted visual perimeter 'imo.'

Participants And Methods: Eyes of 76 non-glaucoma participants and 92 glaucoma patients were examined.

Purpose: To report clinical course of a patient with cancer-associated retinopathy (CAR) medicated by steroid therapy, focusing on retinal degeneration progression.

Observations: A 67 years-old female patient, who had a surgical history of endometrial carcinoma with adjuvant chemotherapy, was referred to our hospitals for the complaints of sudden reduced visual acuity and visual field constriction in the right eye. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 0.

Purpose: Pregabalin binds to the α2-δ1/α2-δ2 subunits of the voltage-gated L-type calcium channel (LTCC), which is expressed in rod/cone photoreceptor terminals. The purpose of this report was to describe electroretinographic abnormalities associated with pregabalin treatment.

Case Presentation: This is an observational case report.

Purpose: To determine whether baseline foveal threshold and photoreceptor integrity can predict best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at 12 months after intravitreal aflibercept (IVA) therapy in eyes with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

Patients And Methods: We evaluated 25 eyes of 25 patients with treatment-naïve neovascular AMD who received IVA once a month for 3 months, followed by once every 2 months for 8 months. BCVA, integrity of the external limiting membrane (ELM) or the ellipsoid zone (EZ) of the photoreceptors, and retinal sensitivity were determined before (baseline) and at 6 and 12 months after initial IVA.
