Epidemiology of diabetic retinopathy, diabetic macular edema and related vision loss

Ryan Lee, Tien Yin Wong, Charumathi Sabanayagam · 29 Sep 2015

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of vision-loss globally. Of an estimated 285 million people with diabetes mellitus worldwide, approximately one third have signs of DR and of these, a further one third of DR is vision-threatening DR, including diabetic macular edema (DME). The identification of established modifiable risk factors for DR such as…

Epidemiology of age-related macular degeneration (AMD): associations with cardiovascular disease phenotypes and lipid factors

Katie L. Pennington, Margaret M. DeAngelis · 1 Dec 2016

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of irreversible blindness in adults over 50 years old. Genetic, epidemiological, and molecular studies are beginning to unravel the intricate mechanisms underlying this complex disease, which implicate the lipid-cholesterol pathway in the pathophysiology of disease development and progression. Many of the genetic and environmental risk factors associated…

Small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) history, fundamentals of a new refractive surgery technique and clinical outcomes

Dan Z. Reinstein, Timothy J. Archer, Marine Gobbé · 23 Sep 2014

This review summarizes the current status of the small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) procedure. Following the early work by Sekundo et al. and Shah et al., SMILE has become increasingly popular. The accuracy of the creation of the lenticule with the VisuMax femtosecond laser (Carl Zeiss Meditec) has been verified using very high-frequency (VHF) digital…

Assessing progression of keratoconus: novel tomographic determinants

Joshua K. Duncan, Michael W. Belin, Mark Borgstrom · 29 Feb 2016

Several methods have been described in the literature to both evaluate and document progression in keratoconus, but there is no consistent or clear definition of ectasia progression. The authors describe how modern corneal tomography, including both anterior and posterior elevation and pachymetric data can be used to screen for ectatic progression, and how software programs…

Application of generative adversarial networks (GAN) for ophthalmology image domains: a survey

Aram You, Jin Kuk Kim, Ik Hee Ryu et al. · 2 Feb 2022

BACKGROUND: Recent advances in deep learning techniques have led to improved diagnostic abilities in ophthalmology. A generative adversarial network (GAN), which consists of two competing types of deep neural networks, including a generator and a discriminator, has demonstrated remarkable performance in image synthesis and image-to-image translation. The adoption of GAN for medical imaging is increasing…
