"The eyes are a window to the brain," prompting the investigation of whether retinal biomarkers can indicate Alzheimer disease (AD) and cognitive impairment. AD is a neurodegenerative condition with a lengthy preclinical phase where pathologic changes in the central nervous system (CNS) occur before clinical symptoms. Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) often precedes AD.

This study used optical attenuation coefficient (OAC)-based optical coherence tomography (OCT) en face images to assess the ellipsoid zone (EZ) in the foveal region. This retrospective, observational, cross-sectional study of 41 healthy volunteers and 34 patients with retinal diseases included imaging data acquired using a prototype swept-source OCT system. EZ en face images were generated from OCT raster scan volumes based on OAC, followed by denoising and binarization to quantify the percentage of EZ structural normality or abnormality relative to the total imaging area.

The neural retina shares a common embryonic origin with the brain and yields pathological changes like that in the brain in various neuropsychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia. Non-invasive examination by optical coherence tomography (OCT) revealed retinal structure abnormalities in patients with schizophrenia. This study investigated retina structures in 29 patients with schizophrenia and 25 healthy controls in a Chinese Han ethnic population with spectral domain OCT.

Purpose: To evaluate the foveal development in patients diagnosed with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and to evaluate whether foveal development was affected by treatment in ROP patients.

Methods: This cross-sectional study included patients with a history of ROP. Foveal development was compared between eyes with spontaneous regression and treated eyes.

Retinal Sensitivity in Comparison to Cone Density in Choroideremia.

Scheie Eye Institute, University of Pennsylvania, Perelman School of Medicine, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States.

Purpose: Choroideremia (CHM) is an X-linked inherited retinal degeneration causing loss of photoreceptors, retinal pigment epithelium, and choriocapillaris. Structural abnormalities of the cone photoreceptor mosaic have been reported even within the retained island of functioning retina. Here, we describe the relationship between cone density and visual sensitivity within the retained central retina in CHM.
