12-year cumulative incidence rate of rare retinal diseases: a nationwide study in Korea.
Eye (Lond)
January 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, Chung-Ang University, College of Medicine, Seoul, South Korea.
Purpose: Understanding the incidence of rare diseases is important in establishing a proper public health care system and setting target diseases in medical research. Herein, we report the 12-year cumulative incidence of seven rare ocular diseases of the retina in South Korea.
Methods: We analysed clinical records of 1,126,250 South Korean population during 2006~2019.

Photobiomodulation therapy for congenital color vision deficiency: results of a preliminary randomized clinical trial.
Front Med (Lausanne)
December 2024
Senior Department of Ophthalmology, the Third Medical Center, Chinese PLA General Hospital, Beijing, China.
Purpose: This study presents a novel randomized controlled trial investigating photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy as an intervention method for color vision deficiency (CVD).
Methods: A total of 74 participants with CVD were assigned to either the PBM group or the control group. In the PBM group, participants wore virtual reality (VR) goggles twice daily, with a 12-h interval, over a four-week period.
Long-term outcomes of scleral fixated black diaphragm intraocular lens in eyes with combined aphakia and aniridia.

Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the long-term outcomes of scleral fixation of aniridic black diaphragm intraocular lenses (BDIOL) in 38 eyes affected by aniridia and aphakia due to trauma or congenital conditions.
- After an average follow-up of 28 months, there was a significant improvement in visual acuity, and patients reported reduced glare and photophobia, though some experienced complications like elevated intraocular pressure and corneal decompensation.
- The findings suggest that scleral fixation of BDIOL is an effective solution for patients lacking capsular support, providing good vision quality with a low rate of complications, regardless of prior surgical history.
Genome sequencing reveals novel variants in a diverse population with congenital anterior segment anomalies.
Sci Rep
January 2025
Department of Human Genetics, University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, Miami, FL, 33136, USA.
Congenital anterior segment anomalies are disorders that affect the development of the eye and cause severe visual impairment. The molecular basis of congenital anterior segment anomalies is not well known. In this study, genome sequencing was performed on 27 families from diverse ethnicities with congenital anterior segment anomalies and 11 variants were identified, most of which were novel and family specific.
