This study sought to evaluate whether monocular amblyopia has an impact on planning and problem solving in the adult population. The authors used the Tower of London (TOL) test to address this question. The TOL test was developed to assess...
Changes in drusen and retinal layer volumes prior to CNV development
This retrospective longitudinal study looked at patients with wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in one eye who subsequently developed wet AMD in the fellow eye. The aim was to discover whether drusen characteristics or volumes of retinal layers correlate with...
Association of pendular waveform and retinal disorders
The authors aimed to evaluate the relationship between retinal disorders and pendular low amplitude high frequency components (PLAHF) waveform by collecting nystagmus eye movement recordings, electroretinography (ERG) and gene tests. Retinal disorders were diagnosed by clinical phenotype and genotype characteristics....
Defining of a successful surgery for different types of strabismus
The authors present the results of a Delphi study, following on from their previous work which defined successful general outcomes for strabismus surgery. This study aimed to define success outcomes for specific types of strabismus. Twenty-five experts were involved in...
