Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of severe loss of central vision among people over 50. The pathophysiology of the disease is multifactorial and can be attributed to genetics, aging, inflammation, environmental factors, and lifestyle factors including smoking, diet, obesity, and alcohol consumption. While there is no treatment for dry AMD, the current standard treatment for wet AMD is an intraocular injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor—an effective, yet expensive, therapy that requires ongoing treatment.

X-linked retinoschisis (XLRS) is an X-linked inherited retinal dystrophy characterized by mild-to-severe visual impairment, splitting of the retinal layers, and a reduction in the dark-adapted b-wave amplitude on the electroretinogram. Typical clinical features include macular and peripheral schisis.

Vitelliform lesions (VLs) are associated with a wide array of macular disorders but are the result of one common pathway: retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) impairment and phagocytic dysfunction.

Retinal ischemia gives rise to a complex spectrum in which the cumulative profile of ischemia of the middle and inner retina can be highly variable. We reviewed the current knowledge on paracentral acute middle maculopathy (PAMM) pathophysiology and accompanying risk factors, the middle and inner retinal vasculature and blood flow, and the vulnerability of the middle retina in vaso-occlusive disorders.

Glaucoma is a chronic, progressive disease leading to irreversible blindness if left untreated; however, since reducing intraocular pressure has proven to be successful in slowing disease progression, little is known about the natural history of untreated glaucoma. This knowledge can be valuable in guiding management decisions in the era of personalized medicine.

Acute intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation following repeat intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) injections (IVI) may pose a risk to the integrity of the retinal nerve fiber (RNFL). This meta-analysis investigates the role of IOP-lowering interventions such as an anterior chamber paracentesis (ACP) and IOP-lowering medications on the IOP in patients undergoing IVIs.

Thyroid eye disease (TED) is characterized by enlargement of extraocular muscles, an increase in retrobulbar fat, orbital fibrosis, and fluctuations in plasma thyroid hormone levels in most patients, often associated with raised autoantibody titers.

Amblyopia is a global public health issue with extensive, multifaceted impacts on vision and quality of life (QoL) for both patients and families. Geographical variation exists in the management of amblyopia, with traditional mainstay treatments, optical correction, and fellow eye occlusion most successful when implemented at an early age.

Every year millions of children are exposed to general anesthesia while undergoing surgical and diagnostic procedures. In the field of ophthalmology, 44,000 children are exposed to general anesthesia annually for strabismus surgery alone. While it is clear that general anesthesia is necessary for sedation and pain minimization during surgical procedures, the possibility of neurotoxic impairments from its exposure is of concern.

A 14-year-old boy with a history of shunted congenital hydrocephalus began having headaches with nausea and vomiting after transcontinental flights. He gradually developed horizontal diplopia indicative of mild bilateral sixth nerve palsy, without papilledema or ventriculomegaly.
