Preliminary study of rabbits as an animal model of mammalian eye transplantation and literature review

Rev. bras. oftalmol; 81 (), 2022
ABSTRACT Purpose: To describe an innovative animal model of eye transplantation used in rabbits. Methods: six Dutch-belted male rabbits were submitted to lateral orbitotomy in the right eye, wide retrobulbar anatomy exposure, dissection of the structures, identification and distal section of the optic ...

Retinal ganglion cell topography and spatial resolving power of eye in the native chicken of Bangladesh

Int. j. morphol; 40 (2), 2022
SUMMARY: The distribution of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) was observed in the retinal wholemount of native chicken (Gallus gallus domestricus) of Bangladesh by using light microscopy. We considered five different anatomic regions (central, nasal, temporal, dorsal, and ventral) of Nissl stained wholemoun...

Evaluation of choroidal thickness and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness in patients with unilateral amblyopia: a prospective study

Rev. bras. oftalmol; 80 (2), 2021
ABSTRACT Purpose: to compare the Subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT) and Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness (RNFL) of amblyopic and normal fellow eyes. Design: Prospective, cross-sectional, observational case series. Methods: Forty patients age 12 to 41 years (mean 23.73 ± 6.42) with unilateral ambl...

Enfermedades sistémicas y glaucoma
Systemic diseases and glaucoma

Rev. cuba. oftalmol; 33 (4), 2020
El glaucoma, considerado el ladrón silencioso de la visión, es la segunda causa de ceguera irreversible en el mundo. A pesar de los avances científicos y tecnológicos no se ha encontrado una cura definitiva para esta enfermedad. Lo más evidente ha sido el control adecuado de los valores de presión ...

Tomografía de coherencia óptica macular en el diagnóstico y seguimiento del glaucoma
Macular optical coherence tomography in glaucoma diagnosis and follow-up

Rev. cuba. oftalmol; 33 (4), 2020
El glaucoma es una neuropatía óptica caracterizada por la pérdida de células ganglionares de la retina y sus axones. Constituye la primera causa de ceguera irreversible a nivel mundial; por lo tanto, la detección oportuna y el monitoreo continuo es de vital importancia. El grosor de la capa de la fi...

Utilidad de la tomografía de coherencia óptica macular en pacientes con glaucoma y alta miopía
Usefulness of macular optical coherence tomography for patients with glaucoma and high myopia

Rev. cuba. oftalmol; 33 (4), 2020
RESUMEN El glaucoma es una neuropatía óptica caracterizada por la pérdida de células ganglionares de la retina y sus axones. Se presentan dos casos clínicos, ambos miopes con sospecha de glaucoma, con el objetivo de valorar la importancia del análisis de las células ganglionares en el diagnóstico...

Inner retinal thickness and optic disc measurements in obese children and adolescents

Arq. bras. oftalmol; 83 (5), 2020
ABSTRACT Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate optic nerve head parameters and inner retinal layer thicknesses in obese children and adolescents. Methods: Forty-one eyes of 41 pediatric obese participants and 41 eyes of 41 age- and sex-matched healthy controls were included in this study. Body mass ind...

Effects of axial length on retinal nerve fiber layer and macular ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer measured by spectral-domain OCT

Arq. bras. oftalmol; 83 (4), 2020
ABSTRACT Purpose: To evaluate the influence of ocular axial length on circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer and ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer thickness in healthy eyes after correcting for ocular magnification effect. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, we evaluated 120 eyes from 60 volun...

Assessment of intraocular pressure, macular thickness, retinal nerve fiber layer, and ganglion cell layer thicknesses: ocular parameters and optical coherence tomography findings in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder

Objective: To compare intraocular pressure (IOP) and macular, retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL), and ganglion cell layer (GCL) thicknesses in treatment-naive children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), children with ADHD on regular methylphenidate (MPH) treatment for at least 3 months, ...

Optical coherence tomography findings in bipolar disorder: a preliminary receiver operating characteristic analysis on ganglion cell layer volume for diagnosis

Abstract Background Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has been recently used to investigate neuropsychiatric disorders. Objective The aim of this study was to compare the retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFLT) and the ganglion cell layer (GCL) volume in patients with type 1 bipolar disorder (BP...
