Article Synopsis
  • This study used advanced imaging techniques to analyze posterior staphyloma (a type of eye condition) in children, aiming to develop a new classification system specific to pediatric cases.
  • It found that less than 55% of pediatric staphylomas conformed to existing adult categories, indicating unique patterns like prevalent temporal and inferior temporal staphylomas linked to vascular issues.
  • The results suggest a need for updated classification systems that accurately capture the distinct features of pediatric staphylomas, highlighting two new types not previously recognized in adult classifications.

Berkeley, California, USA.

Purpose: To introduce a method to calculate retinal irradiance caused by ophthalmoscopy. This may be used to verify the compliance of an instrument with the radiation limits set by light hazard standards. The proposed method is simpler to use and less prone to error than the methods currently found in the light hazard standards.

Background: As more preterm infants survive, complications of preterm birth, including retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), become more prevalent. ROP rates and blindness from ROP are higher in low-income and middle-income countries, where exposure to risk factors can be higher and where detection and treatment of ROP are under-resourced or non-existent. Access to low-cost imaging devices would improve remote screening capabilities for ROP.
