Objective: To explore the impact of glaucoma on the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) optical density ratio (ODR) by volumetric optical coherence tomography (OCT) under different analytical radii.
Methods: Twenty-five eyes identified as healthy and 57 eyes with a glaucoma diagnosis (23 mild and 34 moderate-advanced cases) underwent volumetric OCT scans centered at the optic nerve head. Cross-sectional images were obtained through 5 distinct analytical circles with varying radii.

Purpose: This study aimed to measure the changes in refraction difference value (RDV) in different parts of the retina before and after implantable collamer lenses (ICL) surgery.
Design: Prospective study.
Methods: This study included 40 eyes of 40 patients who underwent ICL implantation for myopia.
Early subclinical macular disease in asymptomatic patients with primary antiphospholipid syndrome: A quantitative multimodal retinal evaluation.

Division of Rheumatology, University of Sao Paulo Medical School, Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Purpose: To perform a quantitative multimodal evaluation in 25 patients with primary antiphospholipid syndrome (PAPS) without ocular complaints and to compare them with 25 healthy individuals.
Methods: A structural and functional ophthalmological evaluation using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) and microperimetry (MP) exam in 25 patients with PAPS, followed at a tertiary rheumatology outpatient clinic, was performed. All ophthalmologic manifestations were documented and subsequent statistical analysis was performed for comparative purposes, with significance set at < 0.

Article Synopsis
- - This study explored the link between visual field contrast sensitivity and pesticide exposure among agricultural workers by comparing two groups: one exposed to pesticides and a non-exposed control group.
- - Results showed that those exposed to pesticides had higher neurotoxic symptoms, increased Substance P levels, and lower cholinesterase levels, as well as significantly reduced contrast sensitivity in their visual fields, especially around the optic nerve head.
- - The findings suggest that visual field assessments could be an effective way to understand and evaluate potential health risks associated with pesticide exposure, particularly regarding retinal toxicity.
