Binocular Visual Field Loss and Crash Risk: An eFOVID Population-Based Study.
Ophthalmic Epidemiol
December 2024
School of Population and Global Health, The University of Western Australia, Perth, Australia.
Purpose: Visual field loss poses a high personal cost to those affected, significantly impacting activities of daily living, including driving. However, there is conflicting evidence on the association between visual field loss and crash risk. This study examined the association between severity and location of binocular visual field loss and motor vehicle crashes in older adults aged 50+, using linked population data over a 29-year study period.

Nocturnal intraocular pressure (IOP) profiling has shown that the peak IOP usually occurs at night, particularly in patients with glaucoma. Multiple studies have demonstrated that these nocturnal IOP elevations drive glaucomatous progression, often despite stable daytime IOP. Existing vascular dysregulation and decreased nighttime blood pressure compound the damage via low ocular perfusion pressure while elevated nocturnal IOP disrupts axonal transport.

Article Synopsis
- The study developed a method to extract and standardize large-scale visual field test data from the Humphrey Field Analyzer (HFA), focusing on patient sensitivity and reliability measurements.
- It analyzed longitudinal data from 606,230 visual field tests conducted on 92,215 patients in Western Australia over a span of 34 years, covering approximately 85% of annual tests performed by local ophthalmologists.
- The comprehensive dataset is poised for epidemiological research on vision disorders, linking visual field data with other administrative records for deeper insights into eye health trends.
Probability density and information entropy of machine learning derived intracranial pressure predictions.
PLoS One
July 2024
Centre for Ophthalmology and Visual Science, The University of Western Australia, Perth, Australia.
Even with the powerful statistical parameters derived from the Extreme Gradient Boost (XGB) algorithm, it would be advantageous to define the predicted accuracy to the level of a specific case, particularly when the model output is used to guide clinical decision-making. The probability density function (PDF) of the derived intracranial pressure predictions enables the computation of a definite integral around a point estimate, representing the event's probability within a range of values. Seven hold-out test cases used for the external validation of an XGB model underwent retinal vascular pulse and intracranial pressure measurement using modified photoplethysmography and lumbar puncture, respectively.

Acta Ophthalmol
November 2024
Retina Service, Department of Ophthalmology, Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital, Nedlands, Western Australia, Australia.
Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) is a frequently occurring chorioretinal disease, that is commonly associated with subretinal fluid accumulation in a generally young population. Even though choroidal abnormalities have been found to be of importance, the exact pathogenesis of CSC is still being learned. The origin of pigment epithelial detachments, seen in many CSC patients, is also unclear.
