Binocular summation with low contrast
The magnitude of binocular summation was investigated in normal control subjects using four different letter charts of varying type with fixed and variable contrast levels and spatial frequency to determine which tests most readily reveal binocular summation in normal subjects....
Likelihood of developing multiple sclerosis after optic neuritis diagnosis
Optic neuritis (ON) is a relatively common cause of acute optic neuropathy in young patients which often presents as the first sign of multiple sclerosis (MS). There is a lack of evidence around the factors that are associated with the...
OCT use with macular retinoblastoma
The authors explore the use of portable hand-held spectral domain OCT (SD-OCT) in three eyes of three infants and young children with macular retinoblastoma. All were treated with chemotherapy and all had SD-OCT before and after treatment. The children were...

Biometry measure after cycloplegia
The authors investigated optical biometry in an Indian paediatric population on normal and cataract paediatric eyes and studied the effect of cycloplegia on different parameters measured in these eyes. This was a prospective study of 76 eyes aged five to...
The global burden of age-related macular degeneration
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the third leading cause of blindness (behind cataract and refractive error). The authors present the results of the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2015 study, which included 195 countries. The disability-adjusted life years (DALY) due...
